In this week’s live episode of the New Rules podcast, our host Dimitri Simes Jr. is joined by former British diplomat Alastair Crooke to give you an update on the growing conflict in the Middle East.
“The war in Gaza has been actually a defeat of Israel. All the objectives that were sent for it, the elimination of Hamas, its leadership, the retrieval of the hostages, all of these elements have not been achieved. And so it’s retreating in a sense of defeat, one that is now really permeating into the Israeli sphere, in other words, into their thinking.”
