We look back on the region’s history and discuss what it can teach us about the future.
Jonny Dymond brings together a carefully curated panel of experts, academics and journalists to talk about the conflict in the Middle East.
What has happened in history to lead us to this point? And, what can history teach us about what might happen next?
This week, Jonny is joined by Dr Ahron Bregman, from King’s College London, and the BBC’s International Editor, Jeremy Bowen.
In the second of two special episodes, they focus in on the former Israeli leader, Ariel Sharon. Last week’s episode covered another leader who bestrode the modern Middle East - Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat.
This episode was made by Keiligh Baker and Eleanor Harrison-Dengate. The technical producers were John Scott and Michael Regaard. The assistant editor is Ben Mundy. The senior news editor is Sam Bonham.
This episode is part of a BBC Sounds series. The discussion was recorded at 15:00 on Friday 6 December 2024.
