Why They Fight: The Story of the Arab/Israeli Conflict - (MP3 Download)
Michael MedvedThere is much misinformation and many outright lies spread today about
the facts of the Middle East conflict. In this broadcast Michael
Medved recounts the history of the small area of land which is modern
Israel. A remote and obscure territory of first the Roman Empire, then
the Ottoman Empire and later the British Empire, Jews, Arabs and
Christians have lived there for centuries. But bloody conflict between
these neighbors erupted after events following World War I and the
establishment of various Middle East states, including the State of
Israel. Why? Michael Medved presents facts to clarify a dark and
confusing segment of world history.

Thumbs up on: Why They Fight
Very interesting and relevant, full of information both old and new to me about the Israeli Arab conflict, and relating the Palestinian refugees to the Tories who had to flee the United States after our Revolutionary War with Britain was spot on.

The History Behind Current Events
Michael Medved is a balanced and engaging historian. I wish this presentation was an automatic requirement for all Middle Eastern study programs!

Very Informative!
Hello, This had always been a subject of interest for me and I leaned a lot through this program! It really cuts through a lot of untruths that we typically hear about the conflict. I actually listened to it twice over the weekend. Thanks, -Jamie

Comprehensive, enlightening
Shines a light on the true sources of today's conflict. Not what is covered in the media and not what I expected. An excellent context for understanding the Arab/Israeli conflict.
