Transcript for Israel-Palestine Debate: Finkelstein, Destiny, M. Rabbani & Benny Morris | Lex Fridman Podcast #418 - Lex Fridman

TL:DR; weird fucking debate. Israeli side shifts from counterfactuals about the past to vulgar realpolitik about the present like it's nothing. Tightrope on an idealistic view of history and a materialistic view of the past. Fucking weird and it's presented in a fundamentally unconvincing way where they're basically saying "fuck international law" over and over again. I've spliced in some commentary bits, marked as inline code blocks. All non-contiguous bits are timestamped. This is copied from the podcast transcript.
