Rashid Khalidi on the Palestinian Cause in a Volatile Middle East, and the Meaning of Settler Colonialism

I think pluralism is something that's achieved In rare occasions, it's a great blessing. When it is achieved, it's achieved in rare occasions. It doesn't look like it's in very robust health, even here in the United States.

And I think that for Jews, it's been such a successful home, such a welcoming home, that there is definitely a cognitive dissonance involved in saying, here, pluralism, there, stay based on religious identity or ethnic identity. And I think that that contradiction, especially for young people, is leading people to reject the idea of Zionism.

Yes. I think that that's one of the best arguments for a two-state solution is that it's bad for – obviously bad for Palestinians but also bad for Israelis to be in the position of occupying other people and holding them down. Trevor Burrus, Jr. : Jabotinsky said that a Jewish state has to have a Jewish majority.

And in fact, what you have now there is not a Jewish majority in the whole land, a Jewish majority only in the part that's the state of Israel.

: Right. So it's sort of an artificially maintained Jewish majority. But I do think that there's no other country in the world for whom their politics and their conduct of war leads to the judgment, this country should be wiped off the map. This country should not exist. It would be hard to have worse politics and worse conduct of war than Russia, right, over the last two years.

And no one has said, this shows that Russians shouldn't have a state. This shows that Russians can't handle or shouldn't be allowed to have a Russian country. It's only the Jewish state that people say that about.

And I think that it has to do with the very unique role that Jews and Judaism play in Western civilization and also the recency and precariousness of the country of Israel, that it's a country where you can imagine it not existing in a generation. I think that that would be an unacceptable price to pay.
