How Israel has reshaped the Middle East + Dalai Lama takes on China

As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meets American
President Donald Trump to try to hash out a Gaza ceasefire and
hostage deal, a new Middle East is emerging from the ashes of
years of war. Iran's nuclear programme has been bombed, Syria's
new leader is re-establishing diplomatic relations with the West,
and the Gulf is considering normalising relations with
Israel. 


Roland talks to journalist Adrian Blomfield about how people
across the region feel about these tectonic shifts and why Israel
is emerging as the winner. 


Plus, veteran interviewer Mick Brown reflects on the significance
of the Dalai Lama's recent announcement on his reincarnation and
why Beijing is furious.
