Leading author, journalist, and thinker David Frum and The Hub’s editor-at-large Sean Speer discuss the latest developments in efforts to resolve the Israel-Hamas war in light of the anniversary of the October 7th attacks. They examine whether President Trump's negotiating approach will lead to a sustainable peace, including whether Hamas's radical ideological commitments will ultimately stand in the way.

In the second half, they explore how the conflict has revealed deeper problems in Western societies, including the breakdown of rational discourse, the weaponization of information warfare, and underlying anti-Western sentiment that manifests as antisemitism.
