In this episode of The Source, our senior editor Zain Raza speaks with Israeli politician Dr. Ofer Cassif about the deepening humanitarian crisis in Gaza. They also examine Israel’s recent plan to take control of Gaza City, as well as the international reaction, with a focus on Germany’s partial weapons export halt.
The discussion delves into the social, political, and military crises gripping Israel — in particular, the unprecedented backlash from within its own security establishment — and explores whether these internal contradictions point toward an internal collapse.
Finally, they take a critical look at the political rhetoric employed by Western governments surrounding the “two-state solution,” highlighting what is often missing from this discussion and questioning whether it remains realistic to implement today.

OFER CASSIF: Dr. Ofer Cassif is an Israeli politician and lecturer in philosophy and politics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Sapir Academic College and Tel Aviv-Jaffa Academic College. He received his doctorate from the London School of Economics and was a postdoc at Columbia University in New York.
