This episode compares how Australia and Israel have responded to their most significant terror attacks. While Australia is already undertaking a Royal Commission into the Bondi attack, Israel still has no independent inquiry into October 7 attack, more than two years later. Sharon and Yuval unpack the political, legal and societal reasons behind that delay, including why Israel's High Court and competing narratives have turned tragedy into politics. The conversation explores why accountability matters—not just for Israel, but for Jewish communities worldwide—and what’s at stake if those questions remain unanswered.

In this episode of Politica, Sharon Offenberger and Yuval Regev unpack how the US, Israel and Iran each frame the war's outcome in their favour. The conversation explores how victory is no longer decided by military achievements, but in perception. As public opinion, political affiliation and media ecosystems shape entirely different understandings of the same war, this episode asks simple but uncomfortable questions about how Israeli and global narratives will affect Israel's future, especially if they do not align.
