He will also discuss his experiences as a journalist who has interacted with such figures as Yasser Arafat. Moreover, William and I discuss the figure of Hamas military leader Mohammed Masri aka Mohammed Deif, William's analysis of Biden's diplomatic moves in response to the October 7th attack in Israeli and Israel's bombing of Gaza, Hamas as having set "a trap" for Israel that could lead to an Israeli quagmire in Gaza, the possibility of divisions/fissures within Hamas (particularly between its military wing and its political wing), Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin "Bibi" Netanyahu's right-wing government, and much, much more.
