The Historical Context of Early Palestinian Resistance to Zionism

The chapter delves into the early conflicts between Palestinians and early Zionists, with a focus on the role of British involvement and the controversial figure known as Bloody Balfour. It highlights Palestinian resistance efforts, cross-religious alliances, non-violent protests, and ongoing armed resistance to Zionism from 1920 to 1935. The dialogue explores the complex intersection of socialism and nationalism in the Zionist project, the economic power dynamics, settler colonialism, and the ideological foundations of early Zionism in Palestine.
