Everything about him – from his vision to his demeanor, from his entanglement with Israel's legal system to his personal life – is a source for division. So much so that he became the litmus test by which Israel's political tribes are divided. Dan was joined by Israeli journalist and author Ari Shavit to discuss how Netanyahu came to embody Israel's political divide, what his pardon request from President Herzog means for his future, and whether Israelis can reach unity in a post-Netanyahu world.CREDITS:ILAN BENATAR - Producer & EditorADAAM JAMES LEVIN-AREDDY - Executive ProducerBRITTANY COHEN - Production ManagerMARTIN HUERGO - Sound EditorMARIANGELES BURGOS - Additional EditingMAYA RACKOFF - Operations DirectorGABE SILVERSTEIN - ResearchYUVAL SEMO - Music Composer

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel has announced plans to visit New York City, though it remains unclear whether he will meet with Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani. The ongoing debate around “Trump Derangement Syndrome” taking over anti-Trumpers' minds is being highlighted deeper and deeper as the weeks go on. Manhattan psychotherapist Jonathan Alpert is reportedly receiving death threats for speaking out on the topic.

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. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. After Israel and Lebanon held direct talks on Wednesday in the presence of US envoy Morgan Ortagus, Magid remarks on the rare contact between the two countries. The US aims to prevent the expansion of Israeli operations in Lebanon during the ongoing ceasefire, while Israel wants to ensure that Hezbollah is not able to rearm. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly weighed in on Jewish settler violence against Palestinian villagers, and Magid notes the premier's insistence on redirecting the so-called hilltop youth's criminal tendencies via educational efforts rather than using security measures or imprisonment. Netanyahu also discussed legalizing certain West Bank outposts in light of their role in preventing Palestinian land grabs in Area C. Last month, the Trump administration shelved the idea of sanctions on Palestinian Authority leaders, after PA Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas fired his finance minister when it was discovered that illicit "pay to slay" payments were still being made to Palestinian security prisoners. Magid talks about the White House decision, and its sense of satisfaction with the development. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Israel's political earthquake is shaking the very foundations of its democracy. President Herzog is weighing a potential pardon for Prime Minister Netanyahu just as President Trump dramatically invites Bibi to the White House. Is this a presidential favor or a veiled ultimatum? Ruthie Blum and Mark Regev expose the legal chess match, deep-state power grabs and the media circus surrounding the most polarizing figure in Israeli politics. Will Netanyahu beat the system...or is the system too broken to fix? This episode of "Israel Undiplomatic" pulls no punches.

Ghost breaks down a packed geopolitical landscape, starting with Maduro's message to Trump accusing U.S. agencies of fueling the Aragua Train cartel and outlining the role of DEA informant Alex Saab in exposing cartel and corporate networks. He then moves to Ukraine, covering Trump's 19-point peace plan, Wyckoff and Kushner's meeting with Putin, deep corruption inside Zelensky's circle, and NATO's escalating rhetoric as Europe faces internal fractures. From there, Ghost tracks major realignments in the Middle East as Turkey, Iran, and Saudi Arabia all arrive in Tehran at the same time, signaling a possible regional power shift. He closes with rising tension around Syria, Netanyahu's political crisis, and Russia's expanding influence, tying together how each region is reshaping global power all at once.

TURKEY plays a key role in the events unfolding in the Middle East.  Avi Lipkin (BiblicalAlliance.com) spoke to our tour group in Jerusalem in October, explaining why he sees Turkey as a key player in a war that will involve the entire Middle East. Of course, conflict involving Israel always has prophetic significance.  Avi also explains why the Israeli military appeared to be caught off guard by the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023. It wasn't—but senior officers in the IDF withheld intelligence and first reports of the attack from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in hopes that he'd be blamed and forced to resign. In other words, Israel's deep state hates Netanyahu just as much as America's deep state hates Donald Trump—and the deep state would gladly see their countries burn if it forced Trump or Netanyahu out of office. 

Na ruim een jaar strijd claimt Rusland dan eindelijk Pokrovsk te hebben veroverd. Oekraïne ontkent dat fel. Niet geheel ontoevallig bracht Moskou het nieuws naar buiten aan de vooravond van een nieuwe ronde gesprekken tussen de Verenigde Staten en Rusland. Verder heeft Netanyahu om gratie gevraagd en ligt de Amerikaanse minister van Oorlog onder vuur: hij gaf opdracht om drenkelingen van een vermeende drugsboot te doden. Dat en meer bespreekt Jos de Groot met generaals buiten dienst Peter van Uhm en Mart de Kruif.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Netanyahu Pardon Request, Hostages, and Israel's Iron Laser Dome — John Batchelor, Thaddeus Martin, Malcolm Hoenlein — Batchelor discusses Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's pardon request addressing his corruption charges involving luxury items including Cuban cigars and French champagne, though formal acceptance may require admission of culpability. Hoenlein reports that Israel is demanding the return of the final two remaining hostages from Gaza. Martin highlights Israel's deployment of the "Iron Laser Dome" defense system, which effectively counters inexpensive drones and rockets at minimal cost, approximately $50 per interception, providing asymmetric defensive advantage against financially constrained adversaries. 1922 UNDER FIRE 2ND GAZA WAR

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. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu receives his fifth invitation to visit US President Donald Trump at the White House, discusses Berman, an important opportunity given the Gaza ceasefire that is stuck in its first phase. Berman notes that Trump wants to further Israel's security agreements with Syria, where there were clashes last week between IDF troops and Islamist Syrians. He says that conversation will be the centerpiece of the Trump-Netanyahu meetup, if it takes place. After the US signed major agreements with Saudi Arabia during the recent White House meeting between Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Berman notes that Trump's focus is on other conflicts right now, and not necessarily on Israel and Saudi relations.

There was a clear “threat” delivered in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s formal letter to the President Isaac Herzog requesting a pardon in his corruption case, senior Haaretz columnist Dahlia Scheindlin said on the Haaretz Podcast. Netanyahu’s government continues to conduct a “campaign of vicious political incitement against the Israeli judiciary,” Scheindlin noted. “And what he's basically saying in the request is: ‘You see how bad I can make things. This is what will happen and continue to happen if you don't end this.’ It’s a very severe statement.’’ On Sunday, Netanyahu formally submitted a pardon request to the Israeli president. He has been on trial for three separate criminal cases – charged with bribery, fraud and breach of trust – since 2020 and is currently being cross-examined by prosecutors in court. On the podcast, Scheindlin discusses the impact a pardon would have on a future election and the U.S.-led efforts to pursue the goals laid out in the Gaza cease-fire agreement, as well as what she believes Israel’s opposition needs to do to seize this moment ahead of next October’s election in order to formulate a “winning strategy” to defeat Netanyahu.

Il premier Netanyahu chiede la grazia - La lista degli stupri nei bagni del liceo a Roma

Especial presentado por Roberto García, en el que la BBC cuenta en forma pormenorizada la vida de Yasser Arafat, fundador y presidente de la OLP (Organización para la Liberación Palestina) y del partido Fatah. El documental narra su trayectoria de lucha por la autodeterminación palestina, su apelación a la violencia y al terrorismo contra Israel y sus aliados en Medio Oriente. La falta de resultados y las recurrentes masacres sobre su pueblo lo llevan en 1988 a la renuncia explícita de la violencia y al reconocimiento del Estado de Israel. Es en ese momento que Arafat proclama la solución de los dos Estados en el marco de los Acuerdos de Oslo de 1994, propiciados por la administración Clinton. Sin embargo, el pacto no conformaría a los palestinos e israelíes más extremos, y su consecuencia será, por un lado, el asesinato del Primer Ministro israelí Yitzhak Rabin, en manos de un extremista judío; y por el otro, el ascenso de HAMAS en la Franja de Gaza, organización que comienza a licuar la influencia de la OLP, y cuyos ataques redundarían en la llegada de la derecha al gobierno israelí, de la mano de Benjamín Netanyahu. Esta circunstancia, contemporánea a la muerte de Yasser Arafat, anula el modesto progreso que la paz había logrado en Oslo.

The BBC has visited a camp where people are taking refuge after the fall of Sudan's El Fasher - one of the most brutal chapters of the civil war. People fleeing the besieged city described witnessing atrocities by RSF fighters. Also: Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asks to be pardoned; an investigation into Georgia's potential use of chemical weapons against anti-government protesters; the US hosts "productive" peace talks to end Ukraine-Russia war; Dignitas founder dies through assisted suicide; the testimony of a woman held captive in Iraq; an update on the rescue operations in flood-hit Sri Lanka, Indonesia and Thailand; the latest from Pope Leo's Lebanon trip; and rage bait is Oxford's word of the year.

Today's Headlines: A CIA-trained Afghan asylum recipient shot two National Guard members in DC—one fatally—prompting Trump to announce (on his little app) a “pause” on all migration from “third world countries”. The administration is now freezing asylum and Afghan visas while somehow avoiding the question of why the National Guard is still posted in DC at all. Meanwhile, the Trump team is escalating its hunt for “sedition,” with the FBI now interviewing the six Democratic veterans who reminded troops not to follow illegal orders. And in the Department of Defense (War), Pete Hegseth allegedly ordered a second strike to kill survivors of a botched boat attack—something even a few Senate Republicans have decided is maybe a bridge too far. Trump also pardoned former Honduran president and convicted drug trafficker Juan Orlando Hernández, who immediately went home like it was checkout time at Club Fed. On the Ukraine front, Rubio, Kushner, and Steve Witkoff are still trying to spin their “peace plan,” which reporting suggests was always just a giant business deal in disguise. The drama deepened when Zelensky's chief-of-staff Andriy Yermak resigned after a corruption raid and announced he's headed to the front lines. In other news, the families of Americans killed or injured on Oct. 7 are suing Binance for allegedly helping fund Hamas and other militant groups—just weeks after Trump pardoned Binance's founder. Over in Israel, Netanyahu is trying to get a presidential pardon mid-trial because sure, why the heck not.

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. On Saturday, Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesman, Majed al-Ansari stated in a podcast that the issue of the two remaining bodies of hostages -- taken to Gaza on October 7, 2023, during the Hamas onslaught on southern Israel -- is allowing Israel to potentially delay the next phase of the Trump peace plan. Horovitz weighs in on the readiness of both sides to move forward. Yesterday, six years after he was indicted on charges of fraud, bribery and breach of trust, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu submitted a 111-page formal pardon request to President Isaac Herzog, seeking an end to his long-running and unprecedented corruption trial. We remind listeners of the charges against the premier and the very public intervention by US President Donald Trump on his behalf. Netanyahu claims that ending his trials may help heal Israel -- but could it instead cause a greater rift? Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

"Neil Lazarus discusses the shocking twist in Israeli politics: Benjamin Netanyahu's request for a pardon. Why now? What's he afraid of? And what does this bombshell mean for Israel's future? Stay tuned; this is the episode everyone will be talking about."Netanyahu's desperate attempt to secure a 'Get-Out-of-Jail-Free Card' has exploded into a national crisis, with the world asking: Will This Single Request Save Netanyahu From Decades of Legal Battles?The BREAKING news that the Prime Minister officially Begs for Pardon to end his unprecedented corruption trial, despite maintaining his innocence, has led to critics calling the move a 'Deadly Blow to the Rule of Law' and a direct attempt to 'Bypass the Courts.'This Ultimate Escape Hatch has ignited a firestorm, forcing President Isaac Herzog into an UNBELIEVABLE political and constitutional standoff, will he grant the request, which the Prime Minister claims is a necessary step to promote national unity and end the trial that is 'tearing us apart from within,' or will he reject the plea, which his opponents insist must be conditioned on an admission of guilt, remorse, and an immediate retirement from political life?The Ticking Clock on this decision will determine if the embattled Prime Minister or Prisoner is allowed to halt his own trial and avoid the full scrutiny of justice.

El presidente israelí, Isaac Herzog, afirmó este lunes que solo considerará "el bien del Estado y de la sociedad" para decidir si indulta a Netanyahu, el primer ministro que enfrenta varios casos por corrupción. El especialista en sociología política Lev Luis Grinberg califica de "gran manipulación política" el hecho de que Netanyahu pida una gracia presidencial sin haber sido sentenciado. Netanyahu anunció el domingo que presentó una solicitud de indulto al presidente, argumentando que los prolongados procesos judiciales están dividiendo al país. El primer ministro, además, niega todas las acusaciones en su contra. Según el especialista en sociología política Lev Luis Grinberg, "Netanyahu busca lograr que se cancele su juicio por corrupción para mantenerse en el poder y, si esto no funciona, presentarse a las elecciones como víctima del "Deep State"". El primer ministro israelí acusado de intentar negociar una cobertura más favorable en dos medios de comunicación israelíes y, junto a su esposa, Sara, se le señala por aceptar productos de lujo —joyas, puros y champán— por un valor aproximado de 260.000 dólares, a cambio de favores políticos. Su juicio por corrupción, fraude y abuso de confianza lleva más de cinco años en curso y no tiene fecha para una sentencia. Sin embargo, Netanyahu ya pidió un indulto presidencial. En realidad, según Grinberg, "lo que Netanyahu quiere es que le cancelen el juicio". ¿Gran manipulación política de Netanyahu?  "En cierto sentido, se puede decir que es una gran manipulación política porque el presidente del país no tiene la autoridad para cancelar un juicio. Donde sí tiene autoridad es cuando hay una pena, cuando el que pide la gracia reconoce que cometió una falta, un crimen. Luego sí, hay que perdonarlo. Si el presidente le da la gracia, el caso va a terminar en la Corte Suprema. Y, en principio, la Corte Suprema tiene que cancelar esa decisión del presidente porque es ilegal. Ahora, si el presidente no le da la gracia o si la Corte Suprema la anula, él va a elecciones presentándose como la víctima del establishment, del Deep State. Dirá que el establishment lo está persiguiendo desde hace varios años con este juicio que él califica de ‘completamente falso' y dice no tener ninguna responsabilidad. Y si recibe la gracia, se queda en el poder". El domingo, decenas de personas se manifestaron frente a la casa del presidente Isaac Herzog, quien debería tomar una decisión en un plazo de dos meses. "¿Qué soluciones pueden tener? En realidad, lo que está pidiendo la oposición es que se llegue a un compromiso. Se le puede cancelar el juicio si él renuncia y deja de hacer política. Dejarlo seguir en la política sería un desastre. Él es responsable, considero responsable no solo por los crímenes del juicio, sino por cosas mucho más graves: esta guerra, esta desastrosa situación con los palestinos y con Gaza, los crímenes que se cometieron en Gaza. En realidad, si él se queda en el poder va a fortalecer muchísimo su tendencia antidemocrática o dictatorial", concluye Grinberg.
