Yitzhak Rabin: Not the Peacenik You Think He Was | with Noam Weissman

Jewish History Nerds welcomes its first-ever guest, Noam Weissman, host of Unpacking Israeli History. Yael, Schwab and Noam explore the life and legacy of Yitzhak Rabin through the lens of Itamar Rabinovich's Yitzhak Rabin: Soldier, Leader, Statesman from the Jewish Lives series. Rabin's life is the story of Israel itself. But who was the real Rabin? Known as a peacenik, he was in fact "Mr. Security" — a soldier-statesman whose life and death still echo through Jewish history. Two Unpacked shows, three hosts, one conversation you don't want to miss.

This episode is sponsored by Jewish Lives, a prize-winning series of biographies from Yale University Press.
