In this episode, Neri Zilber is joined by Amos Harel, Haaretz military correspondent and author of the recent Hebrew-language book 06:29: Anatomy of a Failure, to examine what we know about the October 7 attack nearly three years later. They discuss reports that Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu received warnings from Arab officials before the attack, the conspiracy theories that have emerged in Israel and abroad, and how Israel’s military and intelligence failures can be explained. They also assess the state of Israel’s multi-front conflicts, how October 7 has reshaped Israel’s security doctrine, and what could change under a new Israeli government following the upcoming Knesset election.
