“Wow. It was such an important conversation. Thank you!”
That’s what a former colleague wrote to me after today’s Office Hours featuring Lara Friedman. He is Israeli and knows quite a bit about the issues Lara and I discussed — and he found the program illuminating and compelling. I’m willing to bet: you will, too.
I’m going to share a couple of clips. If you’re not yet a paid subscriber, please plunge in and support The Debrief to view/listen to the full podcast.
Clip #1: What is the Endgame in Gaza?
Clip #2: The Evolution of Lara’s Views on Zionism and Israel
One more thing before the paywall…
Be sure to join Jo-Ann Mort: A Precise Chaos and me on Friday at 12pm ET. This conversation is open to all viewers.
Following her reporting trip to Israel-Palestine, Jo-Ann and I will talk about her interview with the wife and son of Marwan Barghouti, the expanding international campaign to release him from Israeli prison, and whether Barghouti has the potential to be Palestine’s Mandela — if Israel would (be pressured to) free him. Be sure to check out Jo-Ann’s just-published piece in The New Republic. I’ll reserve some questions for Jo-Ann based on her decades of experience as a political organizer, peace activist, and freelance journalist.
