In this deeply confronting and historically rich conversation, award-winning journalist and author Yardena Schwartz joins Behind The Headlines to unpack the 1929 Hebron Massacre — a largely forgotten atrocity that continues to cast a long shadow over the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Drawing on years of archival research and firsthand reporting, Schwartz explores how disinformation, religious incitement, denial of history, and the weaponisation of Al-Aqsa helped turn centuries of fragile coexistence into unimaginable violence. From the Grand Mufti’s propaganda campaign to the chilling parallels with October 7, this episode examines not just what happened in Hebron, but why its echoes still reverberate through the modern Middle East — and what that means for any hope of reconciliation.
