20210705 Nicole Sandler Show - A Conversation about Peace with Yossi Klein Halevi

Last month, as hostilities between Israel and the Palestinians were raging, I attempted a conversation with someone with whom I had great difficulty finding common ground. I realized that he was the wrong person to attempt a dialog about achieving peace in the Middle East, as he was all to eager to assign all of the blame to one side. So I kept exploring, looking for someone who was willing to look at life through the other side's perspective. I came upon some information about Yossi Klein Halevi who, among many other titles, wrote the book, "Letters to my Palestinian Neighbor." As I read, I realized that this was who I needed to speak with. Yossi Klein Halevi is an American-born Israeli author and journalist who has opened a dialog with his neighbors in the region. I'm thrilled that he joins me on the show today from his home in East Jerusalem.
