Israel’s Red Line: No Peace Without Hamas Disarmament
Show notes
Israel draws a red line as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejects the latest 15-point Gaza roadmap...but that’s only the beginning of a much bigger story. In this episode of "The Quad", we break down the battle over Hamas disarmament and a new report challenging claims of widespread famine. Then we turn to Iran, where mounting economic pressure could be changing the equation, even as Turkey, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia move toward a new defense alignment. And the political battle is spreading far beyond the Middle East. A major election result in Michigan sparks a heated discussion about the direction of American politics, while the panel takes on some of the week’s most controversial moments: from the Oxford Union to rising antisemitism and the figures willing to stand against it. Plus: Scumbags of the Week and Heroes of the Week Watch until the end and let us know in the comments: Is Netanyahu right to reject the Gaza plan, or is Israel risking an opportunity it may not get again?
