Description:

Zack, Jenn, and Alex are joined by the Middle East Institute’s Khaled Elgindy to discuss the Trump administration’s new Israel-Palestine peace plan. They break down what’s actually in the proposal, the ways in which its provisions are profoundly skewed toward the Israeli side, and how it could change the reality for both sides even if its provisions are never implemented.

Here’s a link to our special guest Khaled Elgindy’s excellent book Blind Spot: America and the Palestinians, from Balfour to Trump.

You can read Alex’s explainer on the peace plan and his Q&A on what the Palestinians are likely to do now.

Here’s Zack’s piece arguing the peace deal is a con.

This is the Washington Post op-ed Zack read from in the episode.
