Stephen Sackur speaks to Avi Dichter, Chair of Israel's Foreign
Affairs & Defence Committee. Think of Israel's turbulent
history since the 1967 war and you might think first of the
political leaders, Golda Meir, Menachem Begin, Yitzhak Rabin,
Shimon Peres and now Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Other
crucial figures in Israel's story spent more time in the shadows,
like Avi Dichter, who was head of the Shin Bet, Israel’s internal
security service from 2000 to 2005. Only later did he enter
politics and is now a parliamentary ally of prime minister
Netanyahu. How does this gatekeeper of Israel’s security see his
country's future?
