Podcast & Video

This episode of Hub Dialogues features The Hub‘s executive director Rudyard Griffiths in conversation with Janice Gross Stein, the Belzberg Professor of Conflict Management in the department of political science at the University of Toronto, about the surprise attack launched by Hamas terrorists on Israel early on Saturday morning, killing at least 250 Israelis.

The two discuss the unprecedented attack launched by Hamas, why the 1973 Yom Kippur War isn’t a good historical analogy for the current situation and why pouring ground troops into Gaza may be a bad idea for Israel.
