He asserts that prior to 1948, Gaza was not known as a "strip" but was a cosmopolitan town with a rich, diverse culture. In a video circulating online from January 2024, Pappe emphasises that the term "Gaza Strip" emerged post-1948, following the Israeli invasion, reshaping Gaza’s identity and geography.
