French historian: Israel destroyed 4, 000 year old culture in Gaza, The Bottom Line

Israel waged 15 wars against Gaza in the last 75 years, and all failed to resolve the core issues, says former French diplomat JeanPierre Filiu, professor of Middle East Studies at Sciences Po. Filiu tells host Steve Clemons that Gazas rich history as a trading post connecting Africa and Asia goes back 4, 000 years. The way Israel has cut it off from the world goes against its history and the nature of its people. He says Israels destruction of Gazas heritage sites ancient mosques, churches, museums means that the memory of humanity is being erased before our eyes.
