Regular guest Alex Gourevitch joins us to discuss why the Israel/Palestine conflict is so intractable – and why it draws so much attention. Alex then explains why, lamentably, there is no side worth choosing.
We then delve into various key points:
why Hamas was becoming irrelevant and how the 7 October attack was an attempt to combat that;
why violence is necessary but the Palestinians are in a catch-22;
how the West is implicated in the violence and callousness on show;
why the Palestinians are the most oppressed and forgotten people;
why Hamas is not an anticolonial freedom struggle; and
what is the right way to compare this to Ukraine.
