Description
Ian Parmeter was Australia’s ambassador to Lebanon when Hezbollah was fighting Israel in the late 1990s.
And although there are parallels between what he saw then and what is happening today in Gaza, the situation is very different.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to destroy Hamas and prevent it from ever launching another attack like the one on October 7 – but is that even possible?
Today, Ian Parmeter on the history of Hamas, and what would take its place if it were removed from Gaza.
