Full Program	LISTEN TO FULL PROGRAM
Part 1	We begin with the Israeli targeted assassination of the military leader of Hamas in the Gaza Strip and assess the likely retaliation and possible military escalation between Israel and Hamas. MJ Rosenberg, a Senior Fellow at Media Matters for America and the former Director of Policy Analysis for the Israel Policy Forum joins us to discuss the motives behind Prime Minister Netanyahu’s apparent provocation.
Part 2	Then we hear from Khaled Elgindy who previously served as an advisor to the Palestinian leadership on permanent status negotiations with Israel. We look into what response might come from the new Egyptian government who are close to Hamas and how the Palestinian Authority will be further isolated and weakened by an escalating confrontation between Israel and Hamas.
Part 3	Then finally we look into the civil liberties and privacy aspects of the government hacking into personal emails and what kind of laws there are to protect citizens from both the government and those who abuse the Internet. Gigi Sohn, the co-founder and president of Public Knowledge, a public interest group working to defend citizen’s rights in the digital age, joins us. We discuss how vulnerable ordinary citizens are if the government can snoop on the nation’s top spy.
