This is the third part of a three-parts episode on the history of Kurdish-Palestinian relationship. In this part, you listen to the audio file of a talk by the late Professor Amir Hassanpour about Palestine originally titled "The Geopolitical Context of Palestine and the Israeli State." This talk was presented in 2012 at the Annual General Meeting of Independent Jewish Voices, a grassroots organization based in Canada that, as described on their website, “is grounded in Jewish tradition that opposes all forms of racism and advocates for justice and peace for all in Israel-Palestine.” Professor Amir Hassanpour was a long-time friend and comrade of the Palestinian People and their struggle, and an outstanding example of solidarity with Palestinians among Kurds.
