'The mindset in Israel is still one of devastation, agony and shock,' foreign policy adviser says

A PROPOS © FRANCE 24

Israelis held somber ceremonies on Monday to mark a year since the deadliest terrorist attack in the country's history, a Hamas-led raid that shattered its sense of security and has since spiralled into wars on several fronts with no end in sight. FRANCE 24's Sharon Gaffney speaks to Alon Pinkas, who served as Israel's consul general in New York from 2000 to 2004. He says that the general mindset in Israel is still one of devastation, agony, humiliation and shock, even a year after the attacks.
