Dr. Gabor Maté shares his reflections on Israel/Palestine including recent tragic events on and following October 7th, 2023. This conversation was recorded on October 28, 2023, and was facilitated by Hannah Maté. Please be mindful to engage in respectful discourse in the comments amidst inevitable political disagreement on this subject matter.

May I encourage you to at least listen to or read in the Transcript the ending starting around 30 minutes. I found the whole discussion very illuminating.
