Munk Dialogue with Bret Stephens
Munk Dialogue with Bret Stephens
Israel under attack
On Saturday morning, Israelis woke up to their world forever changed. The numbers are staggering: over 1000 Israelis killed by Hamas and 150 taken hostage, including children and the elderly. The brutality of these crimes are even more shocking – dead bodies desecrated and paraded down the streets of Gaza to the applause of onlookers.
This was Israel’s 9/11, and its response will be severe. So, what comes next? How many more countries could be pulled into this war? And how should the US and the West respond?
To answer these questions and more, we’re joined by Bret Stephens. He’s a New York Times columnist, the former Editor-in-Chief of The Jerusalem Post, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and a past Munk Debater.
“We may be not looking at the horror in the rear view mirror, but looking toward a very long, very protracted, very bloody war on multiple fronts against multiple adversaries.”
