'Enzo Traverso delivers a stinging riposte, rigorously anchored in his mastery of European Jewish history, to the virtually unanimous sanctification by Western elites of Israel's genocidal war on Gaza, and their dishonest weaponization of anti-Semitism (in some cases by true anti-Semites on the far right) to attack supporters of Palestinian rights' Rashid Khalidi, author of THE HUNDRED YEARS' WAR ON PALESTINE

Is the destruction of Gaza only a consequence of the October 7, 2023 attack, or is it also the outcome of a long process of dispossession and eradication? Do Palestinians have the right to resist the occupation? Is talking about genocide anti-Semitism? Enzo Traverso goes to the root of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by calling history into question and offers a critical interpretation that overturns the one-sided perspective from which we have become accustomed to observing what is happening in Gaza.

Enzo Traverso is a leading historian of modern and contemporary Europe. His research focuses on the intellectual history and the political ideas of the twentieth century. He is the author of several books, including The End of Jewish Modernity, Fire and Blood: The European Civil War, Left-Wing Melancholia, The New Faces of Fascism, Singular Pasts: The "I" in Historiography, and Revolution: An Intellectual History, which have been translated into many languages. He regularly writes for Jacobin in the United States, Il Manifesto in Italy, and French and Spanish-language magazines. He taught history and political theory in France for almost twenty years. Since 2013, he teaches at Cornell University. He has also taught as visiting professor in several countries of Europe and Latin America.
