WTH Did Hamas Attack and How Will Israel Respond? Haviv Gur Explains

The monstrosity of Hamas’ attack on Israel is hard to fathom.
This podcast, with Times of Israel reporter Haviv Gur, shares
some insight into developments on the ground in Israel, tragedies
that Israelis are experiencing real-time, and analysis of the
political, religious, and military aspects of the conflict.


He also gives us a glimpse into Israel’s calculus following the
attack – what do Israelis think Palestinians are thinking? Where
are the roots of Palestinian extremism, how do the majority Arab
Israeli population view the behavior of their neighbors? How has
the fundamental understanding of regional cooperation changed,
and where are we beginning to have clarity on the real
aspirations of Palestinian leaders and other Middle East actors
in the fall-out?


These questions and more with Haviv Rettig Gur. Haviv is The
Times of Israel's senior analyst. He has reported from over 20
countries and served as director of communications for the Jewish
Agency for Israel, Israel’s largest NGO. He lectures on Israeli
politics, the US-Israel relationship, the peace process, modern
Jewish history and identity, and Israel-diaspora relations. Haviv
lives in Jerusalem with his wife and two sons.
