Twenty months into the war with Hamas, many Israelis and supporters abroad are asking the same urgent question: how will this end? In this in-depth episode of Orthodox Conundrum, Scott Kahn is joined by Yaakov Katz, one of Israel’s most respected journalists and author of While Israel Slept, to examine whether Israel’s military goals are still realistic — or even defined. They discuss the uncertain state of the war, Netanyahu’s political maneuvering, the role of the Chareidi parties, international pressure, and the trust gap between the government and the public. It’s a sobering but essential conversation for anyone who cares about Israel’s future.
