ENGLISH: Diplomacy, Danger, and the Possibility of hope - with NADAV TAMIR

An interview-episode in English about not only the Middle East, where our star guest, Nadav Tamir — veteran diplomat, former advisor to President Shimon Peres, and one of Israel’s clearest progressive voices — joins us to map the trauma, the politics, and the stubborn hope inside the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. But for obvious reasons, this also affects both US and European politics. Nadav brings rare insight: a diplomat who has seen the machinery from the inside and still believes that repair is possible.This is an episode about darkness, yes — but also about the people who refuse to let darkness be the end of the story.And towards the end, we also get to talk about the stubborn, misunderstood phenomenon of wanting to boycott Israeli culture and business. Nadav explains the need for international engagement, but also how people should see that there is a massive difference between the current Israeli government and the Israeli people. And especially the cultural boycott is counterproductive, since most artists are actively opposed to the current government's policies. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
