The hope sparked a little over thirty years ago by the Oslo Accords seems to have vanished, and the ‘two-state solution’, Israel and Palestine living side by side in peace within ‘secure and recognized’ borders, has never seemed more distant. After the horrors committed by Hamas on October 7, 2023, and the uncontrolled brutality shown in response by the most right-wing government in the young state’s history, the future appears grim.
French-Israelis Eva Illouz and Ofer Bronchtein are, each in their own way, firmly committed to the cause of peace. Does a path toward it still exist, despite everything? Are there still reasons to hope? We will ask them to try to outline what the steps and conditions for peace in the Middle East might be.
