In this episode, hosts Barak and Leah discuss the effects of Israel’s lack of strategic communication strategy in the information battle space and how it impacts its capacity to formulate a plan for dealing with Gaza. Co-host Seenar says “This episode explores why Israel’s defense force lacks a strategic communications arm that is an essential component of warfare itself and informs the strategic outcome of ‘the day after’ in Gaza.”
The guest interview is with Dr. Vera Michlin-Shapir, a visiting Fellow at the King’s Centre for Strategic Communications and a former Research Fellow at the Israeli Institute for National Security Studies who previously worked at Israel’s National Security Council, Prime Minister’s Office. Their conversation provides in-depth knowledge of the nuances of Israel’s position, as well as the tactical challenges that lie ahead. Also features regular segments of “What This Means to You”, and “Who’s Who in The Godfather”.
