Show Notes

On both the right and the left, Israel increasingly plays a disproportionate role in American politics, exceeding its geopolitical importance.

Michael Koplow, Chief Policy Officer at Israel Policy Forum, returns to discuss AIPAC, the impact of the Trump presidency, Shireen Abu Akleh (the Al Jazeera reporter recently killed in Jenin) and the reality of a Two-State solution with host Yehuda Kurtzer.
