Joining me today to discuss the immeasurable and long-lasting effects of this war is one of Israel's most astute political analysts. Ari Shavit has written dozens of opinion pieces in Israel and the Western world's leading media outlets. A regular on Israeli national television and international news programs, he is also the author of the acclaimed book, "My Promised Land: The Triumph and Tragedy of Israel."

I hope you'll tune in and join me for this intimate conversation wherever you get your podcasts.
