D.L interviews Kelley Nikondeha, author of First Advent in Palestine about Christian zionism, and how Palestinians view the year 1948 (often called "The Nakba" or "Catasrophe"). Kelley is the author of The First Advent in Palestine: Reversals, Resistance, and the Ongoing Complexities of Hope. You can follow her on Instagram here.Here is a great 4-page sheet outlining what happened in 1948. While John Wayne encouraged Bodie Theone to call it “The Jewish Alamo” Palestinians had another word for that year--Nakba, or “the catastrophe.” The key has become a symbol of Palestians forced from their homes in 1948 who continue to hope to go home and yet have no rights or protections under which they can do so. Here are interviews with four Palestinians in the Occupied West Bank.A Keffiyeh is a Palestinian scarf that is full of cultural significance. Here is both the video and the transcript of Isaac Munther’s sermon “Christ in the rubble”For further reading D.L. recommends Palestine Speaks and Kelley’s book The First Advent in Palestine (make sure you read all her footnotes!)Kelley recommends The Lemon Tree and This is Not a Border. She also recommends following and watching content from PAL fest, the Palestinian Art and literature festival. For Christians, she recommends reading Naim Ateek’s book Justice and Only Justice, and Faith in the Face of Empire by Mitri Raheb.  Sliman Mansour created the image Kelley used for the cover art for her book.

The book we are discussing is The Gates of Zion by Brock and Bodie Theone. You can follow Josh’s work over on his substack called New Means. He mostly covers issues of labor but most recently has been writing from a Jewish perspective on the dangers of zionism.  “Zionism was the air we breathed. To me it seemed so normal, it was not something we investigated consciously.” The single largest zionist organization in the US Christians United for Israel. You can read more about it here. The current speaker of the house, Mike Johnson, is a rabid Christian zionist.  Jewitches has a great podcast, post, and infographics on Christian zionism.  They write: “The largest Zionist organization has more Christian members than there are Jewish Americans alive. As of 2021, there are roughly 7.5 million American Jews. Christians United for Israel alone has over 10 million Christian members. There are more than 30 million Christian Zionists in the United States alone, according to the author & academic Tristan Sturm. That’s double the population of Jews worldwide.” Here is a quick biography of Brock and Bodie Theone.  In 1978 while working on The Fall Guy, she [Bodie]  told John Wayne about her desire to write about the events surrounding Israel's statehood. "That's one you ought to do," Wayne said. "It's the Jewish Alamo!" An unusual series of circumstances directed Bodie into the Zion project. A producer persuaded her to write a script centering on the day in 1948 when Jerusalem's mayor received from the British the key to the Old City. For the first time in 2,000 years, a Jew held the key to the city gates. While an intriguing story to Bodie, the producer needed the script in three weeks. Brock and Bodie have written 65 different books and sold over 35 million copies of their zionist historical fiction. “Due to such careful research, The Zion Covenant and The Zion Chronicles series are recognized by the American Library Association, as well as Zionist libraries around the world, as classic historical novels and are used to teach history in college classrooms.” O Jerusalem was a book published in 1972 that was a popular history of the creation of the nation-state of Israel. Here is some good background info on the book and what its aims were. One of Bodie’s recent facebook posts mentions “the door of the Ark is about to close” The rest of their facebook page is just one big trigger warning/red flag.Brock and Bodie wrote their recent books of fiction with Calvary Chapel pastor (and huge end-times prophecy guy) Ray Bentley. You can Join our patreon comamunity to support this podcast and gain access to two extra episodes each month, our facebook community, as well as the backlog of patreon-only episodes covering evangelical media, spiritual abuse, and more.You can follow The Bad Place Podcast on Twitter and Instagram.
