Ant Greenham: Making Sense of the Crisis in Israel - EP 125

What’s going on in Israel, and how can we pray? Today’s episode is devoted exclusively to the biggest headline in the world right now — crisis in Israel. And since this story is rapidly developing, we’re releasing this episode early. Here to discuss is our own Dr. Ant Greenham. Dr. Greenham served as a diplomat in the Middle East, and he joins us to explain what’s going on and why. Among the topics of conversation: * Who is Hamas? How are they different than the PLO or Hezbollah * What’s the difference between Gaza and the West Bank? * Why all the violence now? What is Hamas’ goal with the violence? * Could Iran be behind the attacks? * How might the Islamic faith — specifically, the concept of an unknowable God — play a role in the terrorists’ motivations? * How were the attacks comparable to previous attacks, such as the Yom Kippur War in 1973 or the Holocaust? * What are the greatest concerns moving forward? * And, most importantly, how can we pray?
