- Is there a path back from the brink for Israel and Palestine?
Under the blinding influence of fury and revenge after the October 7 attack, Israel has waged a relentless war in Gaza which killed more than 11,000 Palestinians and displaced more than 1.5 million people.
But beyond its stated aim to eliminate Hamas, there seems to be no plan for what happens the day after, or what would stop the wheel of violence from continuing to spin.
This week on The Big Picture podcast, we sit down with former Israeli negotiator and analyst Daniel Levy, who now heads the US-Middle East Project.
Levy argues that despite the terrifying language now normal within Israeli society, there is still an offramp, and even a road to peace.

I am a Canadian Christian. I was so pro Israel until I watched a video of how Israeli protesters voiced how they hate Africans and was so proud to be racist against black Africans. Then i saw Palestinians homes being sprayed bulldozed down. My first response was , What !!! I couldn't believe this was actually happening in the holy land. I use to feel connected to them, because our struggles was almost the same. Now what i see them doing to the Palestinians is beyond evil. It is wicked. You cannot kill a whole bunch of innocent people (women and babies) to catch a few bad guys. This is unthinkable. Look lets call this what it is Benjamin Netanyahu needed an excuse to bomb the hell out of Palestine to put up new settlement for more Americans and European Jews (white). The Palestinians people was not the ones who put 6 million Jewish people in the gas chamber and do experiments on them. It was the Germans. SHAME ON ANYONE WHO THINKS THIS IS OK.
Could you point me in the direction of some videos like you mention. The only streaming I'm currently on is utoob. So on there would be best... From what I've seen, I don't doubt this. I'm so-called "white" and I despise the despicable ideology of white supremacy, no matter what religion or not people try to pretend bolsters it. Pretends.
Quick question, I agree with everything you said but you had me scratching my head about when you said you are going through the same struggle, not to mention that your Palestinian Christian brethren have suffered for over 70 years under this racist apartheid voilent and vile regime but are the muslims the struggle you are on about? I hope I am wrong about this but wow what an eye opener for you ay
I applaud you. Thank you ❤
I've no idea what you mean by saying .....that you used to support Israel...what did you support...the land grabbing, the dispossession, the constant violence....and ....our struggles are almost the same....Iv no idea what you're on about....so I didn't pay much heed to your post...
And sionist Jews have been doing this for some 75 years...

You speak with such confidence from your position in Western Europe, but let's not forget that Islamic religious leaders have called for a global jihad on the Jewish community. And while you may find success in Western Europe, do not underestimate the strong presence of Judaism in North America, where there are 8.9 million followers compared to just 3.7 million Muslims. Not to mention the 87 million evangelicals who view the Jewish community as their own. So go ahead, try to spread your jihadist ideology in North America. But remember, this is our territory, not yours. And don't forget the 626,000, mostly Jewish, who marched through the streets of Washington DC. So let's not make any mistakes here. Bring your ideology to North America and see what happens, big guy.

I hope from the bottom of my heart that justice will be made in the name of all the innocent lives that were lost and of all the suffering caused. And I hope that Israeli people will have the courage and dignity to stand up for what's right and make their own politicians pay the price for their corrupt intentions. I and I hope people everywhere will hold their own "leaders" accountable for declaring their unconditional support to an abusive state such as Israel and calling it their "friend" and speaking in the name of the country they were representing. So irresponsible considering the history of abuse of Israel. The international community has demonstrated TOTAL INCOMPETENCE and complicity. They all need to be held accountable. Not just Netanyahu. In the name of all the children killed and of all the lives that were ruined.

Also these same people write the laws, so why should they write a law that goes against their own interests? Man cannot write his own punishments because he will go soft on himself.
The only way is to follow the law of God.
All too rare are those with the knowledge, open heart and the wisdom rooted in compassion that Daniel holds in this matter.
You mean passion, not compassion? He doesn’t seem to have much compassion for dead Israelis in the past or in the future. But he certainly has a lot of passion peddling his opinions (mostly delusional). I wish he wasn’t talking with his hands though.

Many Israelis backed Netanyahu because he promised security but in the end, it was for naught. His government moved a lot of personnel to help the settler movement grab and consolidate their illegal gains in the West Bank and this left Israel vulnerable to an attack from Gaza.
The Israelis have perfect security, who's bothering them?

@@kiranbarrow4648yep. Palestinians are the victims of their own greed, intransigence, genocidal supremacism, colossally bad decisions and spectacularly missed opportunities. Actions have consequences.
All these physical and metaphorical walls of separation make it very easy to forget about the population suffering under our eyes. I hope more people can understand.
This is a rich, thoughtful and important discussion.
Daniel Levy deserves a lot of respect. We love to see and hear that the truth became more prevalent over time. May Allah open our eyes and hearts to the truth, to break the veil of ignorance and double standards. Aamiin…
Excellent discussion. Kudos, gentlemen.
Current events in Gaza has much of the world holding Israel in pariah status. Backs will be turned. Sanctions applied. Visas refused. Only when Israeli society humbles itself and sincerely wants reconciliation with their Palestinian peoples, will these measures be relaxed.
Spoken as one who lived under apartheid in South Africa. For all its evil, it was mild compared to the present Palestinian ethnic cleansing. In our case, there were a number of internal factors that influenced SA voters. Sanctions only hardened the resolve to fight the world. Christians began to repent and pray for God's intervention. Also, the young intelligentsia moved beyond the racial divides in many cases, allowing us to see our 'enemies' as fellow humans, thus eliciting compassion and kindness. Society broke the back of Apartheid by literally removing support from the apartheid leaders.

How can war brought peace
How can genocide be come
Human rights
I think that partition has always been the wrong option whether between India and Pakistan or in Palestine: the solution of the Imperialists: divide and rule. Daniel Levy’s statement about its dehumanizing nature is so true.
Why nobody speaks about CONNECTING Gaza with the West Bank? Let them build a tunnel, so they are no more divided and the first rule of how to rule a people goes away. It would be just a technical problem, just a MONEY problem. Uniting the Palestinian people is what Israel owes them. At least. Shalom.
I think Israel owes the Palestinians alot MORE then allowing 2 narrow strips to be connected by a tunnel. They are not animals. Lives have been lost, homes repossessed, children jailed without trial, lands being taken, olive trees destroyed. I can't believe you made this statement trying to make it seem charitable. Palestinians are not animals just as the Jewish victims of the Holocaust are not animals and were compensated not only with money but the British stepped in with the Belfour Declaration, ensuring safe passage and military backup for Jews to go to Palestine and settle there. Not only that there is a lasting legacy that no bad deeds done by Jewish groups can ever be criticised without the continual threat of being chased after with the label of anti semitism. The US has become the Israeli cash cow where 10 mil USD of American tax payer money is channeled to Israel DAILY. It seem compensation for the atrocities that Jewish ppl suffered will continue till judgement day and meanwhile you think a tunnel will cut it for the Palestinians? Extremely delusional and really reflects the hidden bigotry in your heart.
Mr Netanyahu your time will come...
This was a fantastic interview, thoughtful and intelligent, some of the best journalism I have seen lately. Daniel Levy seems to be realistic in his assessment of the situation between Israel, Palestine and America.
Exactly- assessing the issue from a non biased eye calling it exactly as it is - bared to the entire world. Kudus for truth
Thank you both gentlemen for a sensible and adult discussion of a problem that effects so many in the world. I understand why you are not politicians but not why people vote for those who are.
Maybe it isn't until we become conscious of the "Zionist" operating in our own selves that we can resist the manipulations of those who believe they have the means to distort our wish to live in peace as as a need to dominate others when they argue not to do so is a sign of weakness and an invitation in turn to be robbed of our common humanity.
That was an Eye opening discussion from MEE. Kudos to the host and guest for their in-depth analysis on such a highly polarising topic.
Feel so happy to listen to and see the body languages of these two gentlemen,
Why not Arabs and Israelis live side by side in peace! The obstacle is the politicians!
Before the state Israel was established they lived together peacefully in Palestine 🇵🇸
Muslims lived peacefully with Christians and jews. Zionists ruined it. Zionism and Judaism are two different things. Zionists can never live in peace with Palestinians because they don't want to. Their main aim is to have the whole chicken to them selves without giving it to the Palestinians. Fact is that the Palestinians welcomed these Zionists in their country but did not allow them to make illegal settlements which they are doing. Tge simple solution is to give back Palestinians what they deserve. Their land.
Enlightening and very well presented, with no preconceptions and very constructive, thank you from Canada
He did this, then she did this, then they did this!!! if such analysis could solve the problem, it would have long been sorted. They refuse to address G-haad!! You just brush that away, when they themselves are very clear what they want!!

Phosphorus being used on Palestinians
Why don't you count the anger and disgust growing in people of the world, how Israelis will cope with this hostility,
Israel is a diverse society. Not all Israelis are behind vengeance and a system of occupation of the other. Governments most often do not represent their citizens but other self interests. The hostility you mention (if it really exists) will end immediately once Israel is free for all and no longer a colonial apartheid enterprise.

It may sound strange but this conversation calmed me down. Stoic, level headed and hugely informative political analysis. It's interesting to see that more recent events (last 2-3 days) seem to confirm his points on what may happen (ceasefire), why and how. Thank you.
Best interview I’ve seen . It provides brief historical context, describes the sentiments likely motivating both parties to the conflict. Most significantly, Levy provides an assessment of the 2004 Peace Initiative and provides the most feasible resolutions. All others fail to do more than parrot the slogans. My highest praise to you both for a superb and enlightening interview.

Thank you 🙏
Mr Levy is as always honest , rational , straight in his assessment of the Israeli invasion of Gaza and its occupation policies .
This is one of the most detailed information. Daniel is so articulated!
What a mature conversation! Great work gentlemen.
Too bad Daniel Levy isn't at the negotiating table today, right now. Or leading the Knesset, or Prime Minister instead of Netanyahu… but here we are
Only way out, as I see it, is for the US to pull support, which is never gonna happen 😕
This is exactly how I’ve been seeing it. I’ve noticed everything that he is saying is in this interview. I’m so glad that such a prominent person is thinking &/or confirming all of these things.
It's always so refreshing to hear from Daniel on this issue. There are many people who are doing great work focusing on the plight of the Palestinians and convincing the western world that they need our solidarity, but we cannot forget the importance of also taking a step back from that to scour the landscape for paths to peace. It's very easy to imagine all the ways this could continue or get worse, but it takes a special kind of understanding and clarity of purpose to imagine the best ways to realistically resolve this. It's clear that Daniel is dedicated to finding the best solution, and I can only hope that he and others like him have the ear of those in power whenever we are able to get some sort of negotiations going on a long-term solution.
Levy is well past his sell by date. Stale as f&ck. Only ignorant people find him refreshing.
What is the plan for the Ben Gurion Canal project? If that's still on the books, then most of what Israel is now doing makes sense when viewed through the lens of global capitalism.
Thank you so much for this conversation.

what pleasure and a privilege to listen to Daniel levy talk ! a voice of reason , peace and equality. much appreciated
Excellent episode and educational for someone like myself who has only a basic knowledge of the origins of Israel/Palestine dilemma. I saw Mr. Levy on Amanpour & Co. and he had a great conversation with her about the future of Isr/Palestine.
Indeed. Only someone utterly ignorant can take Levy’s drivel as a gospel. Which is most of pro-Palestine clowns.
So refreshing to hear a human speak
Damn! People like him, there are really a few, prevent the unconditional hate..
Right phrase: unconditional hate: exactly what the Jews in Palestine feel towards the oppressed Palestinian people
I think a big point that's undervalued here is the accountability of politicians. The Israeli ones will always be answerable to people who fundamentally won't agree to big concessions (concessions from their perspective), and perhaps more importantly, US politicians will be too scared to be a neutral broker if their perpetuation as elected officials every couple of years hinges on donors who are pro-Israel.
Daniel Levy represents a handful of sane brave Israeli voices. I'm surprised he hasn't given up yet, knowing how extreme right the general population have become. Really appreciated this talk and would love to hear his updates now, after the humanitarian pause and resumption of hostilities. Has everyone gone rogue? It seems a lot more likely to escalate wildly unless the US can put a cap on it quickly.
I don't think he's Israeli is he?
@@motimobo I believe he is or was, if he was on the Israeli negotiating team in the early 2000s peace accords.

Extremely pleasant to listen this conversation, congratulations on the work
I also think there should be one state from the beginning. And not necessarily an Israeli state. I think Jews should get the right to return to Palestine and just live there, alongside with Palestinians, who already lived there, having the same rights and building up a country for both. But we have passed this point and now it's hardly achievable again.

I shall watch this podcast but not with high hopes due to the fact that this Levy dude was involved in the Oslo accords which were a joke. Everyone knows it. Everyone says it. So if he was instrumental in creating it, I don't have much hope that this dude has any idea how to truly create piece. I would listen instead to Miko Peled who is the author of the book called THE GENERAL'S SON
Mr Levy , speaks like a peace maker, an honest broker and just . He reflects the true Jewish values .
What lies beyond? The Greater Israel Project.
Hopefully the Palestinian get back their land at the borders from 1946!!
