Jonathan Rynhold: Israel's Divided Politics

This week on Babel, Jon Alterman speaks with Professor Jonathan Rynhold, the head of the Department of Political Studies at Bar Ilan University and a senior researcher at the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies. Together, they talk about how Israeli public opinion has evolved since October 7th, the divisions within Israeli politics, and Israeli attitudes towards President Biden. Then, Jon continues the conversation with Will Todman and Leah Hickert to discuss the dynamics in Israeli strategic thinking and President Biden’s efforts to move the conflict closer to resolution.

Thanks for bringing on a guest with insightful nuance in a discussion that has been polarized. IR tries to ignore domestic politics but this is a great perspective on how public sentiment, media coverage, and political divisions are as much important as state level analysis.
