#34: Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, Part III (AUDIO FIXED)

May 01, 2018

On this episode of Impolite Conversation, our friend Kimberly Jarvis joins us as we wrap up our three-month exploration of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with a roundtable discussion of what the future of the conflict might look like. And in One Last Thing, Kim has more thoughts on the Middle East, Courtney has thoughts on being an A’s fan, Dan has thoughts on Jessica Jones, and Tim has thoughts on the recent Simpsons dust-up.

Note: there was a small problem with the audio in the first release of this show. This release should fix it.

Some of the things we discussed in this show:

This map shows the 1948 border between Israel and the Palestinian territories.

Dan mentioned King David, featuring Richard Gere.

Kim referenced this article on the recent Palestinian protests.

Tim talked about Israel/Palestine by Alan Dowty.

Kim’s OLT was about the documentary Hell on Earth: The Fall of Syria and the Rise of ISIS and the book Notes on a Foreign Country.

Courtney’s OLT was about the Oakland A’s.

Dan’s OLT was about season 2 of Jessica Jones.

And Tim’s OLT was about The Problem With Apu.
