British Intelligence in Mandatory Palestine with Steven Wagner

<p>Steven Wagner, historian of intelligence and security, tells us about the little known history of British intelligence in Palestine during the British Mandate. His work looks at how the British created a state based on intelligence and control where Jerusalem was at the center of the political drama that unfolded between 1918 and 1948. We also discussed several interesting figures who produced intelligence and influenced British policy making in Palestine. We also discussed the legacy of British intelligence gathering techniques which were then adopted by both the newly created State of Israel and Jordan. </p><p>Support this show <a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="http://supporter.acast.com/jerusalemunplugged">http://supporter.acast.com/jerusalemunplugged</a>.</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
