Israeli-American historian and esteemed professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University, Omer Bartov, sat down with Mehdi Hasan to discuss Gaza, genocide, and the far right in Israel during a live event hosted by Busboys & Poets in Washington, D.C.
During the discussion, Bartov explained the extremist direction of the Israeli military, the current far-right Israeli government, the weaponization of antisemitism to shield Benjamin Netanyahu from criticism, and how the United States could have prevented Israel from committing genocide against Palestinians.
This talk was part of Busboys & Poets’ The Gaza Lecture Series of 2024, organized in partnership with the Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding at Georgetown University. Zeteo was proud to be involved in this important conversation.
