Peter Beinart is one of the most provocative voices in Jewish public life today—a journalist, commentator, and professor who critiques long-held assumptions about Israel, Zionism, and Jewish identity.

In this episode of People Jew Wanna Know, Margarita pushes Peter on everything from Zionism's purpose to the future of a binational state.
