In this episode we will discuss the topic of the rising conflict in Israel and Palestine last week together with Alex Stein, Kai Shmushko and Daan F Oostveen.

Me and my girlfriend are in Deventer for a long weekend of relaxation with our good friends Daan and Kai. Because Kai is from Israël we’ve been talking 247 about the rising conflicts in the Middle East. Traditionally the social media timelines are polarizing the discourse and I articulate my need for a nuanced debate. Daan decides to call his friend Alex, a specialist on this topic who lives in Israël, to get a live update on the situation.

In the second half of this episode we will discuss his analysis in the light of the Western view and the polarized public sphere.
