In Part 8, we try to tackle one of the most vexing questions of recent times. Is peace even possible and, if so, how? The ideas we’ll walk through are more about identifying what stands in the way, what needs to be solved in order for there to be a realistic chance for peace.
Here in Episode 28, we talk about how Palestinians feel about Israelis. After all, in order to talk about the requirements for peace, we first need to understand where the people involved are starting from.
