Iddo Moed, Israeli Ambassador to Canada

The Herle Burly

The Herle Burly was created by Air Quotes Media with support from our presenting sponsor TELUS, as well as CN Rail.
I’ll just say it: We’d be hard pressed to find a more relevant or newsworthy topic than what we’re going to talk about today. Israel. Hamas. And the war in Gaza. The rise of antisemitism. The protests on college campuses all over North America.
With me to do that is Israeli Ambassador to Canada, Iddo Moed.
Ambassador Moed has been in the post since August of last year. Immediately prior, he was the Deputy Head of African Affairs for Israel’s Foreign Ministry. And he spent 10 years working in Cyber Security for the Israeli government. So, the bulk of this pod will be spent exploring some of the more, frankly, uncomfortable questions on peoples’ minds.
Why did the war in Gaza have to be fought in this manner? How does it end? How does it help the hostages? (Who’ve been held captive 209 days as of this recording.) What comes next? And what of the response here in Canada and North America. Both from government and in culture.
