Norman Finkelstein: How Israel lost the Right
About this episode
Freddie Sayers interviews Norman Finkelstein about the changing dynamics of the political Right's relationship with Israel.
UnHerd's Freddie Sayers talks to American political scientist, author, and prominent scholar of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Norman Finkelstein, about the fracturing of the historically ironclad alliance between the political Right and Israel. They explore how a mixture of 'America First' anti-war sentiment and the financial incentives of the podcast economy have made criticising Israel a lucrative tool for Right-wing influencers, from Tucker Carlson to Candace Owens.
