On this special edition of the Newsmakers, we talk to Holocaust and Genocide studies scholar Omer Bartov, who explains how the moral and political degeneration of Zionism led to Israel’s genocidal war in Gaza. Discussing his newly released book titled 'Israel: What Went Wrong?', Bartov, who was born and raised in Israel, explains how Zionism, which emerged in the 19th century as an idea of Jewish emancipation, has morphed into a radical state ideology of ethno-nationalism centered on violent domination over Palestinians. Bartov argues that while Zionism as a political ideology cannot be reformed, the state of Israel can - but only if it abandons that very ideology.

A sick, sick society that is in terminal decline...
Because to admit the Gaza inhumanity, it is to loose their status of a victim
How they can heal when they feel superior and insist of being chosen
Don’t confuse denial with indifference….
My heart breaks for Gaza
There is no conscience or a soul left in a society that kills at random and completely destroys another’s land. May justice come swiftly to those who are guilty of crimes against humanity.
They will not be forgiven in a thousand years after what they have done
Yep, not just the government, keep on saying it !!!
Zionism, colonialism, exploitation, it’s all the same thing an abuse of power.
Aussie here , the state of Israel should be dismantled ! 😢
It’s evil and vile society and people make society
Denial, while it is in high definition on TV and on their phones. Such a sick and disgusting society
People don't yell out the mistakes, they are part of it. Equally guilty!
Those who are still debating if its genocide or not are on the side of evil.
Shocked by the denial of horrors inflicted indeed.
October 7 was a inside job like 9/11 …
They will never know peace. This outrage will never be forgotten.
The indifference of the Israeli people when reporters ask them about the Palestinians is sad to listen and see and even worse those who justify their government actions.
Heartbreaking
For almost 80 years, the people of Palestine have been persecuted, and the world has stood by and allowed this to happen. I am so sorry that I was ignorant to what these beautiful people have been subjected to. I will now make amends and share what I have learnt with others. 😢😢😢
