2025-10-12

In this episode of The Source, our senior editor Zain Raza speaks with award-winning journalist, author, and filmmaker Antony Loewenstein on the latest developments surrounding Israel-Palestine. They discuss the recently announced Gaza ceasefire and Donald Trump’s 20-point peace plan, focusing on whether the agreement can hold and the challenges it faces. The conversation then turns to Germany’s relationship with Israel, as explored in Loewenstein’s latest documentary Germany’s Israel Obsession, which critically examines the historical, political, and moral dimensions of this relationship. They also delve into the core thesis of the film, highlighting the tactics and methods used by the German government to suppress dissent and criticism of Israel.
