How should we understand Zionism today — as a legacy of the past or a living answer to generations of Jewish powerlessness? What does Israel’s regional strategy look like when every neighbor tests its resilience? And what does the Gaza war reveal about moral dilemmas, shifting alliances, and the world’s selective outrage?

In this timely conversation, leading Israeli analyst Haviv Rettig Gur, senior political correspondent at The Times of Israel, shares sharp insights on Zionism, Gaza, and Israel’s place in a volatile region. Guiding the evening is Bjørn Gabrielsen, one of Norway’s most thoughtful public intellectuals, known for asking the questions that matter.

Together they will unpack history, the Gaza war, Israel’s regional challenges, rising antisemitism, and what the future may hold for all who care about truth and coexistence.
