Israel-Palestine Resources

The purpose of this list is to provide a high-impact introduction to the main players and ideologies in the tensions between Israel and Palestine. The wikipedia articles linked here all refer to first sources, and my curation attempts to remove a single narrative, insofar that this is even possible.

This list skips easily googleable articles ("Hamas", "1967 War", etc). It also skips articles that focus on a single viewpoint ("Palestinian Political Violence", "Greater Israel", etc). Please use these articles as a starting point to research. This is not a complete list, it simply provides key points to begin with.

The Sykes-Picot Agreement - Map of colonial interests in the Levant at the heels of the decline of the Ottoman Empire. This isn't the beginning of history, but a good place to start.
McMahon-Hussein Correspondence - Key piece to understandin

An Introduction to Bank Python

This is a list of stuff important to me, which probably only exists on Soundcloud. Feel free to add yours in the comments.

JD Twitch's channel is generally a treasure. The Bucky Skank sets ( Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 ) are dear to me in particular.
