I didn’t really have an opinion on the Israel/Palestine conflict or about Netanyahu as a person before he was a quest on Lex Fridman’s podcast. He seemed like an extremely disingenuous person, with obviously very politician answers to the questions presented to him. That made me, for the first time, to look into what this conflict is about and though it’s still quite nuanced, my view however isn’t especially favourable to Israel now.

I just want to add some nuance here as I have family and friends living in Israel - it’s not that the Israeli population is ignoring the situation (see the massive protests against Netanyahu and his goal to override the Supreme Court), it’s just that there is a significant portion of the population that are religious extremists. Many of them do not work and just procreate. They vote diligently and have friends in high places. Most Israelis want to coexist with their Palestinian neighbours but it’s the religious extremists that are ensuring this does not happen.
