This Week Unpacked introduces another podcast from Unpacked: Unpacking Israeli History. Season 3 just launched, and we're running the first episode here, entitled Hebron: When Tensions Erupt. In the summer of 1929, Jews and Arabs alike found themselves caught in an unbearably bloody battle. The aftermath of a deadly riot showed the Jews of British Mandatory Palestine that the British couldn’t protect them, leading them to unite under the banner of Zionism. In this episode, Noam unpacks the 1929 Hebron Riots and considers why it may be considered “Year Zero” of the Arab-Israeli conflict.

For September, we're doing something different. Presenting, Unpacking Israeli History. Begin and Ben Gurion had some epics battles, but one of the biggest ones happened in 1952, as these two Israeli giants battled about whether to take German reparations after the Holocaust. In this episode, Noam looks all the way back at this crazy story, and leaves us asking, who was right? ~~~~ Unpacking Israeli History is generously sponsored by Alan Fisher and Barbara Sommer, and Jon and Rachie Teller. ~~~~ Learn more about Unpacked: <a href="https://jewishunpacked.com/about/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://jewishunpacked.com/about/</a> Visit Unpacked on YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/unpacked" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/unpacked</a> See the full season of Unpacking Israeli History here: <a href="https://jewishunpacked.com/podcast-series/unpacking-israeli-history/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://jewishunpacked.com/podcast-series/unpacking-israeli-history/</a> ~~~~ Sources <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2014/06/the-case-for-reparations/361631/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2014/06/the-case-for-reparations/361631/</a> <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/19/us/ta-nehisi-coates-reparations.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/19/us/ta-nehisi-coates-reparations.html</a> <a href="https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/67de380e-8b71-412c-8d06-70af9b31da25" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/67de380e-8b71-412c-8d06-70af9b31da25</a> <a href="https://www.ushmm.org/exhibition/displaced-persons/daily2.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://www.ushmm.org/exhibition/displaced-persons/daily2.htm</a> <a href="https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/israel-breaks-50-year-record-for-most-rainfall-613693" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/israel-breaks-50-year-record-for-most-rainfall-613693</a> <a href="http://tastecooking.com/truth-israeli-couscous/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">tastecooking.com/truth-israeli-couscous/</a> <a href="https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/144226014.pdf" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/144226014.pdf</a> <a href="https://www.npr.org/2019/03/07/700356426/thousands-of-israelis-now-call-berlin-home-and-make-their-cultural-mark" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://www.npr.org/2019/03/07/700356426/thousands-of-israelis-now-call-berlin-home-and-make-their-cultural-mark</a> <a href="https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/labor-and-internment-camps-in-north-africa" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/labor-and-internment-camps-in-north-africa</a> <a href="https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/9783110255386.100/html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/9783110255386.100/html</a> <a href="http://auschwitz.org/en/history/punishments-and-executions/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> http://auschwitz.org/en/history/punishments-and-executions/</a> <a href="https://blog.nli.org.il/en/reparations-agreement/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://blog.nli.org.il/en/reparations-agreement/</a> <a href="https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/handle/20.500.12657/28248/1001729.pdf?sequence=1" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/handle/20.500.12657/28248/1001729.pdf?sequence=1</a> <a href="https://www.aicgs.org/2019/11/the-september-1952-reparations-agreement-between-west-germany-and-israel-the-beginning-of-a-remarkable-friendship/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://www.aicgs.org/2019/11/the-september-1952-reparations-agreement-between-west-germany-and-israel-the-beginning-of-a-remarkable-friendship/</a> <a href="https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/german-holocaust-reparations" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/german-holocaust-reparations</a> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Menachem-Begin-Battle-Israels-Encounters/dp/0805243127" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Menachem Begin: The Battle for Israel's Soul</a>, by Danny Gordis <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ben-Gurion-Father-Modern-Israel-Jewish/dp/0300180454" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Ben-Gurion: Father of Modern Israel</a>, Anita Shapira ~~~~ Unpacked is a division of OpenDor Media

For September, we're doing something different. Presenting, Unpacking Israeli History.

In this episode, Noam Weissman breaks down what led to this infamous resolution, the UN’s relationship with Israel, and what it means to us, almost 50 years later. ~~~~ Unpacking Israeli History is generously sponsored by Alan Fisher and Barbara Sommer, and Jon and Rachie Teller. ~~~~ Learn more about Unpacked: https://jewishunpacked.com/about/ Visit Unpacked on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/unpacked  Teaching about this topic?

TWU Presents...Israel's "Secret" Nuclear Option

For September, we're doing something different. Presenting, Unpacking Israeli History. You might have heard of the Beta Israel, the community of Israel’s Ethiopian community. In this episode, Noam Weissman tells their story - not only their rich Jewish heritage and history, but also the story of how they got to Israel, in Operation Solomon, and their integration into Israeli society over the last thirty years. It’s thrilling, inspiring, but also complicated, and difficult at times. In other words, it’s a microcosm of the entire state of Israel, and the Jewish community the world over. ~~~~ Unpacking Israeli History is generously sponsored by Alan Fisher and Barbara Sommer, and Jon and Rachie Teller. ~~~~ Learn more about Unpacked: https://jewishunpacked.com/about/ Visit Unpacked on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/unpacked  Teaching about this topic?

TWU Presents...The Beta Israel

For September, we're doing something different. Presenting, Unpacking Israeli History. When Air France Flight 139 took off from Tel Aviv on the morning of June 27th, 1976, no one could have suspected that the soon-to-be-hijacked flight was about to lead to one of the world's most daring and risky rescue missions. In the first episode of season two, Noam Weissman unpacked Operation Thunderbolt, Israel's successful secret operation to rescue the passengers, and asks, does this story have enduring lessons for us today? ~~~~ Unpacking Israeli History is generously sponsored by Alan Fisher and Barbara Sommer, and Jon and Rachie Teller.
