Bill Resnick interviews David Finkel, Middle East expert, on the current Israel-Palestine struggle. In Part 1 of the interview they discussed the history of Israel’s dispossession of Palestinian land and enclosing them in smaller and smaller areas, as in apartheid South Africa. In this, Part 2, they discuss settler colonialism, explore its dynamic, as the Israeli settlers take the land and take control of the existing population which triggers resistance from the Indigenous. So the settlers take ever harsher measures as do the Indigenous defending their land and ways of life. In other times and places this didn’t end well, often  genocide. We in the U.S. on which Israel depends need to join the international community to demand a ceasefire and then start peace talks aimed at creation of a Palestinian state. David mentions his article, "Catastrophe in Palestine and Israel: Apartheid on the Road to Genocide" and Norman Finkelstein's book Gaza An Inquest into Its Martyrdom, as well as the work of Sara Roy.
