"The Wrong Year to Quit Amphetamines"

This week's episode of Inside Israel finds the country navigating a shaky ceasefire with Iran. While the war is officially "over," the conversation here is anything but. Today, I'll explore two deeply conflicting narratives: Was this war a decisive victory, setting back Iran's nuclear program for years and embarrassing them globally? Or were Israelis "played," with heavy sacrifices – 13 dead, 10,000 families homeless, and a crippled economy – for a temporary reprieve, leaving critical questions about Gaza hostages and soldiers' deaths unanswered?We'll talk about the the unspoken consequences, too: the shattered faith in Iron Dome, the disruption to daily life, and the emotional toll on a nation. I'll also share a bit about my personal experience of economic impact, providing a candid look at life on the ground. Plus, listener questions tackle everything from NYC mayoral politics to the global understanding of the conflict. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
