In an interview with host Luciano Huk, Israeli writer and historian Yuval Harari, author of the world bestseller “Sapiens: A Brief History of Humanity,” spoke about the war in Gaza and said that Hamas also attacked Israel to “event any chance of to destroy peace.” ” in the region.
“What stands out about this attack is not just the atrocities committed by Hamas, the torture of children, the killing of parents in front of their children, the kidnapping of babies who are now being held hostage in Gaza. “It is their goal to make these atrocities public, including carrying cameras and taking pictures and videos of these terrible things,” Harari said.
For the historian, the reason for the choice is that Hamas wants much more than “just killing civilians.”
“They wanted to destroy any chance of peace, not only now but also for future generations.”
Harari also believes that Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s prime minister, has made no effort to conclude a peace deal with the Palestinians.
“Netanyahu and his government are of course not responsible for the Hamas attack, but they bear great responsibility for the dysfunction of the State of Israel.”
The author explained that it is necessary to ensure not only the human rights of the Palestinian population, but also the certainty that they can live in their homeland.
Harari went on to say that it was intellectually dangerous and lazy to reduce the war debate to Manichean views.
