In this podcast we look at WWI and WWII and how they set the stage for the modern Middle East. Not just the geopolitical landscape. The countries that exist today and where their borders are but also a lot of the conflicts that exist within this region and with the relationships that Middle eastern countries have with the western world. One of those conflicts that can trace its roots back to the end of WWI is the Israeli and Palestinian conflict.
We are joined by Miles Spencer, one of the authors of A Line In The Sand.
