Description
Israeli leaders dreamt of redrawing the Middle East and erasing Palestine. But its wars of expansion have pushed the region to work together against it. In our first episode of this new season of Pinch Point, we investigate how the Middle East changed since October 7, how Israel abandoned diplomacy in favour of territorial expansion and permanent war, and how the region emerged from multiple crises to forge new political and economic alliances that seemed impossible before. Did Israel fall into a trap of its own making, or is it driving to a point of no return?
