EP 38 - Mairav Zonszein: Navigating Israeli Politics and Society Amid the Gaza War

Tahrir Podcast - بودكاست التحرير

Mairav Zonszein is an Israel-Palestine senior analyst at the International Crisis Group. She has been covering Israeli politics and U.S foreign policy for over a decade. In episode 38 of the Tahrir Podcast, Mairav tuned in to speak about how the current right-wing Israeli government, led by Bibi Netanyahu, came to be. She discussed the military objectives of Israel's brutal war in Gaza, the Israeli public's perception of this aggressive war, Bibi being on trial for corruption, as well as the intimidation, forcible expulsion, and harassment of Palestinians in the West Bank. She also explored what a Rafah Operation would mean for Gazans displaced there on the border with Egypt and, ultimately, how the U.S. could pressure Israel into a permanent ceasefire.
