Professor Stephen Sheehi, who serves as the Sultan Qaboos bin Said Chair of Middle East Studies at the College of William & Mary, has made several misleading assertions regarding the history of the State of Israel and the Arab-Israeli conflict. It is necessary to highlight and respond to these inaccurate claims.
On February 6, 2022, Sheehi appeared as a guest on a video podcast by Trapart Films, “Rendering Unconscious,” where he claimed that the Zionist relationship to the land of Israel “is a psychotic relationship to the land” that is “built on fantasy.”
