Parallax Views w/ J.G. Michael
Society & Culture
On this edition of Parallax Views, WhoWhatWhy's William Dowell, a former TIME Magazine correspondent in Cairo who has also covered such pivotal events as the Vietnam War, the Iranian Revolution, Operation Desert Storm, Afghanistan, and the Civil War in Beirut, join us to discuss his articles "Hiding in the Rubble of Israel and Palestine: Opportunity" and "Biden’s Visit May Have Kept Gaza From Boiling Over". 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.
