139: Einat Wilf in London: Israel SHOULD demand the Palestinians declare, “our war with Israel is over”

Support Jonny's podcast here, buy Jonny a coffee! It’s always a pleasure to see Einat Wilf, here again on a whistlestop tour of London, she met with politicians of all parties at the Houses of Parliament, plus journalists and Jewish leaders and their communities.  And it’s her clarity which is arresting. She elevates Zionism above politics, creating unity for Jews of every stripe to coalesce around.  Not to mention the millions of non-Jews who  believe in the Jewish people’s right to self determination too.  And she’s been on a metaphoric journey too. Originally from the peace camp, she believed like so many right across the political spectrum in surrendering land for peace - but today - we all face the chilling reality of October 7 to show what Palestinianism is really about.  They keep telling us, she says. Let’s believe them.  Einat, who co-authored The War of Return: How Western Indulgence of the Palestinian Dream Has Obstructed the Path to Peace, with Adi Schwartz, believes Israel needs to negotiate with pre conditions Listen up to hear what they are and if there really are Palestinian partners in peace.
