episode 155: Centrifuges and Delta Blues: LISTEN to Zvi Bar’el and Amos Harel
On this week’s episode, host Simon Spungin is joined by Amos Harel and Zvi Bar’el for a two-part discussion on Israel’s handling of two current threats: the delta variant of the Coronavirus and the Iranian nuclear program. In Part 1, Amos advises against panic in the face of the mini-wave of COVID-19 infections, says that the government must act quickly and responsibly – and warns that the August 1 target date for reopening to tourists might be postponed again. In Part 2, Zvi comments on the state of play in talks between world powers and Iran, the significance of Iranian noncompliance with inspection regimes and how Israel will continue to wage its shadow war against the Islamic Republic.
