About this episode
Welcome to the show, in this episode we go back in time to read an article from 2009 the last time there was conflict between Israel and Palestine to read an article that talks about how the Israeli government helped support Hamas and certainly didn’t try to stop their spread. It’s worth listening to if for no other reason than unless you’re an anti-war zealot you’ve likely never heard this narrative. After the foundation we built in the previous episodes I think you’re ready to take the next steps in better sensemaking on this most complicated of issues.
