Violence in Jenin (Prof Kobi Michael), Israeli Soccer (Barry Shaw)

(The Israel Connexion) – My first guest today is Professor Kobi Michael – senior researcher at the Institute for National Security Studies in Israel and the editor in chief of “Strategic Assessment”, a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary peer-reviewed journal on topics related to Israel’s national security and Middle East strategic issues, which is published in Hebrew and English by the Institute for National Security Studies.

Kobi Michael signalled the need for Israel to address the ever-present terrorist threat in Jenin before Israel’s recent major assault that aimed at eliminating the terrorist infrastructure in the area also targeting Iranian proxies operating there. (0:45-28:34)

As the FIFA Women’s World Cup is about to kick off I invited Barry Shaw to join me in a live conversation in which we will discuss the state of play with women’s soccer in Israel, but also consider the amazing successes that Israel has recently had in the men’s game.(28:40-56:30)
