Profile: I am a Master's student at Hebrew University in Jerusalem on the topic of Middle East Studies. I specialize in Israel/Palestine (especially 1948, refugees, Zionism, narratives, and settlement/overall occupational policy), Syrian politics, human rights, international law, political economy, and the role of nationalism in identity and conflict.
