The Hundred Years' War on Palestine: A History of Settler Colonialism and Resistance, 1917–2017 Free Audiobook Download by Rashid Khalidi

"The long war of settler colonialism and indigenous resistance in Palestine is well known today from the many books that have analyzed it. Rashid Khalidi's important contribution to the literature is his ground-breaking history of Palestine."

This book is a history of settler colonialism and resistance to the oppression that has been put onto Palestinians since 1917. It also discusses how Palestinians have fought against this oppression in different ways throughout the centuries. In 2017, people of Palestine celebrated 100 years since the Great Arab Revolt two years into World War I. This war was led by Syrians and Egyptians against Ottoman Turks who had ruled over Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Palestine for about 400 years. The book starts with a quote from May 1915: "The present generation owes it to the future generations not to let them be 'hewers of wood and drawers of water' but rather to fight for their freedom." It also shows how British imperialism attempted to seize Palestinian land during this time as well as earlier during Muhammad Ali Pasha's rule in Egypt.

The Hundred Years' War on Palestine is a history of settler colonialism and resistance in Palestine, beginning with the British colonization of the region. In 1917, British colonialists took control over Palestine from the Ottoman Empire. So far into this century, Palestinians have been struggling for their freedom against one harsh occupation after another: first from the British, then the Jordanians, Israeli nationalists, and now the Trump administration.

The Hundred Years' War on Palestine is a story of how the British stole land and displaced people in order to create the State of Israel. Rashid Khalidi's book discusses how settler colonialism has, since its inception, resulted in what is known as "the destruction of Palestinian society."

The Hundred Years' War on Palestine: A History of Settler Colonialism and Resistance, 1917–2017 is a book by Rashid Khalidi. The book tells the history of the "Hundred Years' War" or "War in Outremer," which began when King Richard the Lionheart invaded and conquered Jerusalem from Saladin's Egypt after it was captured in 1187.

The Hundred Years' War on Palestine is the history of the conflict and bloodshed between Israel and Palestinians. The book begins with the arrival of European Jews to Palestine in 1882. As a result of this, Arabs became increasingly marginalized by Zionist settlement projects, while Jews created new institutions that increased their influence in various sectors. During this time period, Palestinians were not recognized as a nation or ethnicity, but they were subject to racism and discrimination nonetheless. In 1917, British forces gained control over Palestine which led to further violence between Jews and Arabs. In 1948 when Israel was established, it sparked another war with the Arab world in which 750,000 Palestinians fled their homes with out any compensation. What follows are over 100 years of resistance against one Israeli massacre after another that has left 8 Palestinian children dead for every Israeli child killed since 1967.
