Israel's fears, its delusions and its future | Daniel Levy

Is there a path back from the brink for Israel and Palestine?

Under the blinding influence of fury and revenge after the October 7 attack, Israel has waged a relentless war in Gaza which killed more than 11,000 Palestinians and displaced more than 1.5 million people.

But beyond its stated aim to eliminate Hamas, there seems to be no plan for what happens the day after, or what would stop the wheel of violence from continuing to spin.

This week on The Big Picture podcast, we sit down with former Israeli negotiator and analyst Daniel Levy, who now heads the US-Middle East Project.

Levy argues that despite the terrifying language now normal within Israeli society, there is still an offramp, and even a road to peace.
