Yair Lapid - Leader, Yesh Atid Party, Israel
What is driving the latest violence between Israelis and Palestinians? HARDtalk鈥檚 Stephen Sackur speaks to Yair Lapid, former Finance Minister and leader of the Yesh Atid party.
The latest paroxysm of violence between Israelis and Palestinians has conjured up a host of horrifying images. Israelis stabbed in random street attacks. Palestinian suspects shot dead by Israeli police when seemingly no longer a threat. An innocent bystander beaten to death by an incensed Israeli crowd. HARDtalk鈥檚 Stephen Sackur speaks to Yair Lapid, former minister and leader of the Yesh Atid party. He's called on Israelis to shoot to kill at the first sign of danger. Will that kind of language enhance anyone's security?
