Geopolitical Stakes | Seth Frantzman on What Israel’s Fight Means for the Entire World
In this thought-provoking episode of Israel: State of a Nation, Eylon Levy is joined by Seth Frantzman, Middle East analyst and author, to discuss the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas. Frantzman provides deep insights into the October 7th massacre, likening it to historical events like Pearl Harbor and 9/11, and examines the broader geopolitical implications for Israel and the West. The conversation covers Hamas’s strategy, the international response, and the enabling role NGOs play in Hamas's cynical strategy. Frantzman’s new book on the October 7th war sheds light on the failures that led to the attack and the challenges ahead for Israel. A must-watch for anyone interested in understanding the stakes of this war and its global impact.
