Helena Cobban: Why understanding Hamas matters
Helena Cobban is a journalist who has covered events in the Middle East for more than four decades.
Through her reporting, she has interviewed senior leadership across Palestinian movements and political organisations and senior members of Israel’s government.
Recently, she co-authored a book with Rami Khouri, an academic and journalist who has also been writing about the Middle East for decades.
The book is largely a transcript of a series of conversations that the authors had with five experts who have a deep knowledge of who Hamas is, what it stands for, how it operates and what it is trying to achieve.
In this episode of UNAPOLOGETIC, she speaks about who Hamas is, what it wants and why understanding it matters.
