Israel's Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu visits the White House later today, as details from the Trump administration's 21-point plan to end the war were revealed over the weekend. As Israel continues its offensive in Gaza City, Netanyahu has vowed to ‘finish the job' against Hamas and shows little sign of making concessions to end the war. Netanyahu has a proven history of getting what he wants from US presidents – so will the same happen at Monday's meeting?Today we speak to the BBC's chief international correspondent Lyse Doucet who has reported on Netanyahu for three decades.Producers: Sam Chantarasak, Xandra Ellin, Aron Keller and Cat Farnsworth.

On September 17, 2025, Israel announced that the world's first laser defense system was ready for deployment, and was being integrated into its multitiered missile-defense shield. Iron Beam may be the most significant advance in missile defense since Israel pioneered the concept of intercepting missiles with missiles back in the 1980s. That's because Iron Beam promises to solve one of modern warfare's most vexing problems: the economic asymmetry of defense. When a crude, unguided rocket costing a few thousand dollars must be stopped with an interceptor costing between $50,000 and $100,000, the math quickly becomes unsustainable. The scale of rocket, drone, and missile fire into Israel over the last two years, coupled with the yet-unlaunched arsenals that Iran and her proxies have in reserve, would, if each one needed to be defended by traditional interceptors, cripple Israel's economy. But Iron Beam changes that calculus entirely. Rather than the $40,000–$50,000 interceptor, each laser interception costs roughly two dollars—the price of the electricity that powers it. The system has what military officials call an “endless magazine,” capable of firing continuously as long as it has power. It's already battle-tested, shooting down over 40 drones from Lebanon during recent conflicts. But this breakthrough also raises profound questions. Israel's intelligence failures on October 7, 2025 partly stemmed from an overreliance on technological solutions—the belief that smart fences and surveillance systems could replace human judgment and offensive action. As Israel celebrates this remarkable achievement of military innovation, how do we ensure Iron Beam enhances rather than replaces sound strategic thinking? To discuss these questions, Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver is joined by Yaakov Katz, former editor of the Jerusalem Post and author of the new book While Israel Slept. Together, they explore what Iron Beam means for Israel's defense, for military cooperation between Israel and America, and the future of warfare.

Ambassador Yechiel Leiter lost his son in Gaza. Out of that devastating loss comes a mission: Hamas must be eliminated, and Israel will emerge stronger than ever. As Israel's top diplomat in the U.S., Leiter says this is a turning point for the Middle East. With leaders like Prime Minister Netanyahu standing firm, and President Trump's bold stand for Israel on the world stage, Leiter sees the hand of history moving.  The path is clear: victory over terror, strength for Israel, and a new Middle East built on peace through strength. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WATCH Stakelbeck Tonight episodes for free on TBN+ here.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ The Stakscast with Erick Stakelbeck podcast features host Erick Stakelbeck and special guests having candid, thought-provoking conversations on the state of America, the world, and the Church, plus powerful personal testimonies and stories.

Pengembangan geothermal di negara berkembang seperti Indonesia tidak lepas dari investasi asing, yang menjadi katalisator utama di tengah keterbatasan modal domestik. Namun, pola kepemilikan yang timpang menimbulkan kekhawatiran neokolonialisme energi. Ormat Technologies Inc., perusahaan asal AS-Israel, menjadi contoh mencolok. Meskipun data terkini menunjukkan Ormat memegang 49% saham di PT Medco Cahaya Geothermal (MCG) untuk PLTP Ijen (35 MW, COD Februari 2025), klaim 75% penguasaan merujuk pada proyek lain seperti PT Ormat Geothermal Indonesia, di mana Ormat mendominasi 75% ekuitas untuk pengembangan di Toka Tindung, Sulawesi Utara, dan Wapsalit, Maluku.

As Israel’s Gaza City offensive intensifies, the lack of a “fully articulated policy” on the part of Donald Trump’s White House means that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu can move ahead with a “blank check” from the U.S., said Haaretz Washington correspondent Ben Samuels, speaking on the Haaretz Podcast. The message from Trump officials to Israel is “do what you need to do, just get it over with fast,” while in public statements, they have shifted to align with Israel’s “all-or-nothing” approach to a hostage deal. “Trump is not giving Israel a red light,” Samuels said. “To Israel, that means a green light.” On the podcast, Samuels analyzed the dramatic shifts in both the Republican and Democratic parties regarding Israel ahead of the 2026 midterms, predicting that the upcoming election will “be the one where Israel becomes a top-tier front-of-mind issue that could really divide voters and could really sway races one way or another” in both of the parties. With the GOP in particular, he noted, “a growing number of mainstream Republicans, along with the isolationist MAGA wing are openly asking, ‘Why are our dollars going to funding a foreign war rather than making the lives better for Americans at home?’” Democrats, he added, “are just not going to take what Israel's saying at face value anymore.” All of this contributes, he said, to the “inflection point” at which American Jews find themselves nearly two years into the Gaza war. “I think we are going to look at this as a foundational shift in how this generation and the next views the U.S.-Israel relationship, as well as the relationship of American Jews to Israel.” Read more: 'They Tend to Die': Trump Says Israel, Hamas May Sign Gaza Cease-fire Deal 'Very Soon,' and Repeated That Some of the Living Hostages May Have Died Trump Says Israel Has Lost Its 'Total Control' of Congress, Is Losing PR War Over Gaza The Dam Has Broken.

A summer of turmoil and near-total war as Iran and Israel trade shots, as the conflict between the two rivals almost plunges the world into a destructive war and total shutdown of oil trade in the region. As Israel accuses Iran of nearly building a nuclear weapon the US, under President Trump, carries out a strike against nuclear facilities. The first direct American military action carried out against the Islamic Republic. Although there is a pause in fighting for the moment, a new round of fighting is likely to follow, with even worse consequences for the global economy. In the US as well, President Trump passed the so-called "Big Beautiful Bill", which will have far-reaching economic effects, such as cuts to Medicaid and SNAP services.For early ad-free access support the program on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon

In this episode of Booksmart, Randa Abdel-Fattah sits down with Soaliha for a powerful conversation that spans her brand-new novel Discipline, the controversies rocking Australia's literary scene, and the realities of racism and resistance today across the country and beyond. Together, they unpack Randa's decision to speak out against the Bendigo Writers Festival - where more than 50 writers and hosts withdrew in solidarity after a restrictive code of conduct was sent just days before the event, that authors said silenced people from speaking out and criticising Israel. Randa and Soaliha also discuss the so-called “March for Australia” rally and what it reveals about race, identity, and public discourse in this country.At the heart of the conversation is Randa's new book Discipline. Set in Sydney during May 2021, it follows Ashraf, an academic in freefall, and Hannah, a young journalist grappling with racism in the newsroom and the demands of new motherhood. As Israel's bombardment of Gaza intensifies during Ramadan, both are forced to reckon with their choices, values, and silences. With its sharp focus on academia and the media, Discipline asks what we're willing to sacrifice in the pursuit of justice.Randa is also an ARC Future Fellow at Macquarie University, a lawyer, and the award-winning author of twelve books for children and young adults, translated into more than thirteen languages. Her writing and research centre Islamophobia, race, Palestine, youth identities and activism, and her work has been recognised by awards including the Stella Prize, the NSW and Victorian Premiers' Literary Awards, and the Prime Minister's Literary Award.We hope this Booksmart episode will leave you thinking differently about literature, politics, and the responsibility of those with a platform to speak (and go and grab a copy of the book while you're at it!).

The LORD causes the warning trumpet to sound again as Assyria waits to scavenge God's people, who are already dead in their idolatry, even though they do not realize it. Israel has been ruled by unauthorized kings, and they worship worthless idols, just as their fathers had once done even at the foot of Mount Sinai. As Israel multiplies their altars, they only multiply their sins. The LORD will not receive their idolatrous worship, for Israel has forgotten that the LORD is her Creator and Redeemer.  Rev.

Just as we still need to listen to their call to repentance over our idolatry, so we still need to heed their call to trust in the Savior, Jesus.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly challenged the assertion that starvation is rampant in Gaza, most recently when he slammed a UN report on famine as “blood libel.” On the Haaretz Podcast, Yarden Michaeli takes listeners behind the scenes of his in-depth reporting with Nir Hasson on the scale of severe acute malnutrition in Gaza. As Israel continues to bar journalists from entering the Strip, Michaeli and Hasson virtually “toured” clinics and hospitals in Gaza – including the pediatric ward of Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis. Israel struck the hospital on Monday, killing multiple healthcare and media workers, including Moaz Abu Taha, the photographer who guided the Haaretz reporters through Nasser. As Michaeli “toured” the wards of Nasser, he saw children who were “very thin, with weak, glazed eyes, clearly severely malnourished with markers of starvation, like changes to their hair color, missing spots of hair on their head, missing teeth and rashes on their skin.” The condition of children, he was told by experts, are the earliest signs of large-scale famine in a population. “The fact that the marks of starvation are already visible on adults in Gaza shows that this whole situation is in an advanced stage,” said Michaeli. “We're not at the beginning. We're far and deep into the process.” Read more: 'Starvation Is Everywhere': Virtual Tours of Gaza Clinics Expose the Scale of the Horror UN Says Over Half a Million Palestinians in Gaza Suffering From Famine; Netanyahu: 'Outright Lie' Alex de Waal: 'Pasta Won't Help.

The LORD says that the warning trumpet must sound, for He is bringing His judgment, slowly but surely.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. This morning, Hamas released a statement saying that Israel’s military plans to conquer Gaza City show its “blatant disregard” for efforts to broker a ceasefire and hostage release deal in the nearly two-year conflict. As Israel continues to weigh the partial, phased truce proposal accepted by the terror group on Sunday, we hear about the various forms of backlash faced by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu -- for both the Gaza City op and for the possibility of ending the war without achieving all war goals. As a slew of international nations announce their potential readiness to recognize a Palestinian state in September, a recent poll found that a 58 percent majority of Americans believe that every country in the United Nations should recognize Palestine as a nation. The issue of a "two-state solution" couldn't be farther from most Israelis' minds. Horovitz delves into why the flirting with recognizing Palestine -- now, during this war -- is drawing such passion from Israeli leadership, including Netanyahu in his dealings with his Australian counterpart.Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Five Al Jazeera journalists, including correspondents Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qreiqeh, were killed in an Israeli strike on a press tent in Gaza. They had lived the story they told, from hunger and displacement to the relentless bombardment. As Israel plans to seize Gaza City, what will the world lose without the ears and eyes who bore witness from inside?

Meanwhile, the battle over the draft bill continues to simmer, exposing deep divisions within Israeli society. This week, Jonathan is joined by New Yorker journalist Ruth Margalit to break down the latest developments on both fronts, and to launch a new series of conversations from across the Jewish world. First up: Ilanit Spinner, a German journalist, reflects on what it means to be Jewish in Germany in 2025 — and how the war is shaping daily life far beyond Israel's borders.

As Israel's security cabinet meets, Benjamin Netanyahu says he wants to occupy Gaza temporarily. The father of an IDF soldier held hostage by Hamas insists the plan puts his son in more danger.Rushanara Ali resigns as Homelessness Minister amid accusations of hypocrisy over a rental property she owns.And a tribute to the pioneering pianist of Latin jazz, Eddie Palmieri.

As Israel's war in Gaza nears its second full year since October 7th, 2023, multiple aid agencies and humanitarian groups have said that the prevalence of famine within the strip has gone beyond critical levels, with elderly Palestinians now succumbing to malnutrition-related deaths alongside the deaths amongst children that were reported earlier this year. Israel, who have maintained a blockade on the Gaza strip since 2007, began significantly restricting the amount of aid entering the enclave following the beginning of the war. While spokespeople from the government have told the international community they were allowing adequate levels of aid to enter the strip during humanitarian pauses, humanitarian groups have said the volume of aid entering the strip was far below the level needed, and that reported attacks on both aid workers and Palestinians waiting for aid by IDF personnel weakened Israel's claims of distributing aid effectively.  Oto spoke to Dr Ritesh Shah, a Senior Lecturer Critical Studies in Education at the University of Auckland to discuss why Israel has been facing international condemnation for its handling of aid distribution in Gaza.

As Israel prepares to enter the land, Moses recounts their journey and the lessons learned. This portion reminds us how easily fear and unbelief can delay destiny. Moses urges the people to remember God's faithfulness and not repeat the mistakes of the past.

In this episode, we break down the shocking move by European leaders—specifically Keir Starmer and Emmanuel Macron—to recognize a Palestinian state while echoing Hamas's propaganda about a so-called starvation crisis in Gaza. This isn't just political posturing—it's a dangerous endorsement that plays directly into the hands of a terror group responsible for the October 7 massacre. As Israel continues to fight for its survival, the West's willingness to reward Hamas sends a chilling message. It's a betrayal that can't be ignored.

In this message, Nic teaches from Exodus 35–36, exploring how God's presence, purpose, and beauty intersect with everyday work and community life. As Israel begins constructing the tabernacle, the emphasis shifts from detailed instructions to willing participation, showing that sacred work must be done in God's way and rhythm—beginning with rest and Sabbath. The Spirit empowers not just priests, but artisans like Bezalel, illustrating that all vocations—whether creative, manual, or managerial—can reflect God's beauty and serve His kingdom. Every skill, resource, and act of obedience becomes part of a larger invitation to build God's dwelling together. The message calls listeners to reimagine their vocation as a Spirit-filled expression of worship, participate in the shared mission of the Church, and pursue God's presence as the guiding force behind everything they do.

We delve into the era of the judges, focusing on the extraordinary story of Deborah and Jael. As Israel faces severe oppression under Jabin, king of Canaan, and his commander Sisera, God raises up Deborah, a prophetess and judge, who calls Barak to lead an army against their enemies. Despite Barak's initial fear, he follows Deborah's guidance to victory. However, the ultimate glory goes to Jael, a non-Israelite woman, who kills Sisera, fulfilling a prophecy of Deborah.Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!

James Carville joins Joanna Coles for a bracing tour through the foreign policy civil war inside MAGA—and why it could tear the coalition. As Israel and Iran square off, so do Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, and Tulsi Gabbard versus Trump, Pete Hegseth, and Mark Levin. Carville breaks down the long-simmering ideological rift now boiling over, and why Trump's strategic confusion—especially in the Middle East—is dangerous not just for Republicans, but for global stability. He explains why Trump “couldn't find Iran on a globe,” how Tucker's pro-Russia leanings go back decades, and why Americans aren't nearly scared enough about what's coming. Plus: what Carville says is the real cost of Republican loyalty to Trump, and how Democrats can seize this moment—if they're smart. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
