After nearly two years of Israel’s war of revenge in Gaza are there any lessons to be learned that might end the bloodshed? Professor Yehuda Halper thinks there are and in this FRDH podcast he shares them. The key is for Israeli Prime Minister to stop speaking about Israel as the new Sparta. After all, Sparta lost the battle of Thermopylae and left virtually no trace of its civilization. Plus other lessons from ancient Greece and Biblical history that modern Israelis and the global jewish diaspora would do well to remember. Give us 41:17 to explain.
The FRDH Podcast is hosted by internationally acclaimed journalist Michael Goldfarb and is about History. The History he has reported on; the History he has written about; and the long History he has lived.
