In this episode of The Source, we interview independent journalist and economist Dr. Shir Hever about a recent report that reveals the shocking extent of German military aid to Israel. We also discuss a lawsuit filed against the German government based on this report, which aims to ensure that it complies with international law and ends its arms supplies to Israel. A similar lawsuit filed by human rights groups in the Netherlands forced the Dutch government to stop supplying F-35 components to Israel. Finally, we examine the significance of an Israeli airstrike in Syria that killed a high-ranking Iranian general and inquire into the reasons why Israel continues to escalate the situation with Iran.

He is the author of The Privatisation of Israeli Security (Pluto, 2017) and The Political Economy of Israel’s Occupation (Pluto, 2010).
