The Israel-Hamas war is a “global terror risk”

"We're in a very dangerous and unstable situation"

Bruce Hoffman has been observing and studying global terrorism for over 50 years. In this episode he speaks to the New Statesman’s Katie Stallard about how the war between Israel and Hamas places the world in danger.

They discuss the threat from Hezbollah in Lebanon and the risk of escalation within the Middle East, as well as why terror organisations like ISIS and Islamic Jihad could be motivated to launch attacks on the United States, Europe and the United Kingdom.
