Date: 9/2/1972Call Number: CE 390Format: 1/4 7 1/2 ipsProducers: Colin EdwardsCollection: Colin Edwards Collection
Interview with Eli Lobel who is a former member of Matzpen, the Israeli Socialist Organization, and the editor of Izrak, a newspaper in
France that reviews news in the Middle East. He was expelled from Israel in 1952 for his anti-Zionism.
Early Arab revolts were anti-colonial rather than anti-Jewish. He talks about Jews and Arabs coexisting in the Ottoman times, which is what they should strive for now.
Lobel says that the Palestinian issue should be an Arab issue, which can be solved through Arab unity against Western elitists and Zionism. Lobel talks about the right of return and living in a binational state. He also explains the split of Matzpen, which was mainly between the Trotskyists and Non-Trotskyists.
