Friday Focus: Why is Hamas Holding Out?
Friday Focus: Why is Hamas Holding Out?
On this week’s Friday Focus podcast, Rudyard Griffiths and Janice Stein analyze a new offer from Israel to establish a ceasefire in Gaza, and explore why Hamas’ leadership seems to be holding out for even more. Can negotiations between Israel and Hamas bear fruit, or is it an exercise in futility? Janice and Rudyard also react to the preliminary report on foreign interference in Canadian elections and whether its conclusions go far enough.
