Join us Wednesday 4 March at 1 pm ET, 8 pm Gaza, “Israel’s End Game,” with Mouin Rabbani, cohosted by Bassam Haddad and Adam Horowitz. We will be addressing the themes below with emphasis on shifting balances of regional and international power that might impinge on the current assault on Iran. We also discuss domestic politics in the United States amid growing antipathy towards Israel according to major recent polls, and how/whether this affects U.S. elections and foreign policy.
Hosts: Bassam Haddad and Adam Horowitz
This series is organized by Jadaliyya & Gaza in Context Project, and cosponsored by Mondoweiss. wwwPalestineinContext.com
"Israel’s End Game" is a podcast series probing whether Israel can indefinitely sustain policies of expansion, dispossession, military occupation, and apartheid, and how shifting geopolitical balances might enable or constrain those policies. We ask our guests whether or how internal divisions within Israel or Israel’s growing international isolation--particularly in the public sphere and despite furious campaigns to suppress scrutiny and criticism—could alter Israel’s strategic choices. The series also examines whether recent developments—including the Gaza Genocide, the rupture of the US’s traditional alliances, domestic polarization, and economic woes—have meaningfully changed the global balance of power or merely reinforced established patterns by normalizing a more profound breakdown of an already inconsistent “rules-based order.” Finally, the series addresses whether Israeli leaders misread or deliberately discount emerging political, economic, and social shifts, domestically or internationally, that could alter Israel’s current trajectory.
