Reality and Perception

Yuval discusses the profound disconnect between different narratives in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, highlighting how both sides often deny the other's existence. He emphasizes that true conflict arises when reality contradicts one's beliefs, leading to a struggle to reshape reality rather than acknowledging differing perspectives. Living in Israel, he reflects on the dual battles faced—against external threats and internal societal divisions—while noting the sense of betrayal felt by many progressives in Israel towards their counterparts abroad.
