The history of modern Israel is so often linked to the founding of the state in 1948. Failing to consider the pre-history of a conflict that many would argue kicked off in force with the Hebron Massacre of 1929.

Yardena Schwartz has had an esteemed career as an award-winning journalist and Emmy-nominated producer and is now the author of Ghosts of a Holy War: The 1929 Massacre in Palestine That Ignited the Arab-Israeli Conflict. A seminal look at the conflict that began what is now almost one hundred years of unending war. 

Eylon sits down with Yardena for a wide-ranging discussion on the history of this region and how the repercussions of a century-old conflict are still very much being felt today.
