Episode 47: Revisiting the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict - Interview with Dr. Judith Mendelsohn Rood, Part 1

October 7, 2023 marked a fresh round of warfare between Israel and Hamas, the terrorist organization governing the Gaza Strip. I had the opportunity to explore the broader Arab-Israeli conflict, its history and politics, with a class of undergraduate students this last semester. During that class, I brought in my good friend, and former TTP podcast guest, Judith Rood to discuss her personal background and its connection to the Arab-Israeli conflict and to explore some of the more complex elements that animate Israeli-Palestinian relations. This is a recording of that guest lecture and it's been divided into two parts, the second of which will air next week. Subscribe to the ⁠Weekly Brief on Substack⁠ (30% for podcast listeners)!
