The 1908 Young Turk Revolution and Palestine's Parliamentary Moment
Om avsnittet
When the Young Turk Revolution of 1908 swept through the Ottoman Empire, it promised constitutional government and elections—and Palestine's Arab and Jewish communities responded with a burst of political organizing. This episode follows the 1908 campaign for the Ottoman Parliament, focusing on the surprising alliance between the Jerusalem notable Ruhi al-Khalidi and the Jewish journalist Nissim Malul, who together argued for a shared civic future under Ottomanism. We explore the election itself, al-Khalidi's victory, the short-lived hope for Jewish-Arab cooperation, and how the rise of the Committee of Union and Progress soon soured that dream. Names include Ruhi al-Khalidi, Nissim Malul, Sa'id al-Husayni, the CUP, and the newspaper al-Karmil. A forgotten moment when Palestine's future seemed briefly open.
