2003 – Six Years That Made the Middle East
In our Six Years That Made the Modern Middle East podcast series, we come to 2003, the year of the US invasion of Iraq. This would be a game changer for the region, sending it over the edge and into the abyss of chaos. This episode looks at the Israel-Palestinian conflict, the intifada, and the peace process. We look at the rise of the mujahideen in Afghanistan and their spread to different conflicts throughout the world. Then we turn to the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s and finally the cataclysmic US invasion of Iraq.

1979 – Six Years That Made the Middle East
In our next episode of the Six Years that Made the Middle East, we look at 1979. In the aftermath of the Six Days War, the 1970s saw the rise of a new element to the chaos we know today – extremist Islam. Far from common before 1979, most resistance and protest in the early decades of the modern Middle East was performed through the framework of politics and political resistance. That changed in 1979.

1967 – Six Years That Made the Middle East
Episode 3 in our series Six Years That Made the Middle East, looks at 1967. This is the year of the famous Six Days War. In this episode we look at the instability that spread across the Middle East between 1948 and 1967, the rise of Nasser, and the slow transition of the US as the new great power in the region.

1948 – Six Years That Made the Middle East
Episode 2 in our series Six Years That Made the Middle East, looks at 1948. This was the year that Israel became a state but there is a wider story to be told when it comes to the Middle East. The rise, fall, and persistence of colonialism, or at least the perception of colonialism in the Middle East must be understood if we want to grasp the true significance of 1948 and what followed.

1919 - Six Years That Made the Middle East
In our first episode in this podcast series that explores the six pivotal years that made the modern Middle East, we look at 1919. This is the year of the Paris Peace Conference after World War I. The modern world was born at those meetings and the modern Middle East was (literally) drawn out on the maps by Europeans in their conference rooms.

Customer Reviews
Excellent podcast!
I love The End of History Podcast. It’s one of the best Apple holds in my opinion. The highest quality content. JB does an excellent job at looking at historic and contemporary events with an unbiased lens. Unclouded by any political agenda, his reflections are honest and objective. When he speaks on deeper things such as the Bible, Christianity, and having a value system, he backs it up with scripture. This podcast has helped develop my world view. It is the opposite of shallow or polarizing as many of the podcast of our time are.
If you like his podcast, you should try his books!
Unintelligent, evangelical, biased dribble
Cognitive dissonance has a poster boy. Someone tell this incel that Jesus isn’t coming back to rescue him from this mean old world, so he might as well start living in reality. The worst is hearing someone this delusional sound this pompous. It’s like listening to Elmer Fudd mansplain socioeconomic inequality as it pertains to Mordor.
What the World Needs to Hear!
This is my go to podcast for staying up to date on all the major events taking place in the world. I love JB’s no fluff and no agenda take on news and politics. Thanks for doing this work and please Keep the updates coming!
