This interview explores the complexities of Israeli society, focusing on the political dynamics, historical memory, and the divisions between Jewish and Arab citizens. It delves into how these factors shape public opinion and the impact of conflict on societal attitudes. The discussion also highlights the role of religion in political orientation and the myth-making that occurs within Israeli identity. This conversation explores the complex landscape of Israeli public opinion in the wake of the October 7th attacks and the ongoing conflict with Hamas. Dr. Dahlia Scheindlin discusses the historical context of Israeli-Palestinian relations, the impact of recent events on societal attitudes, and the shifting perspectives on peace processes and international relations. The discussion highlights the deep-seated fears, scepticism, and evolving views within Israeli society regarding the future of the region and its place in the world.
