    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. Political correspondents Tal Schneider and Sam Sokol join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. We focus on domestic Israeli politics today on the Daily Briefing and start with Sokol, who sets the scene at the Knesset yesterday. We hear about the colorful circus that came to the Israeli parliament. The United Torah Judaism party announced its dramatic exit from the government last night. Schneider weighs in on the stability of the coalition, which, if the other major ultra-Orthodox party Shas also leaves, will drop to 50-51 seats for a minority government. Sokol delves into the ongoing debates surrounding the universal conscription bill. We learn about what is objectionable to the Haredi parties, including new sanctions on institutions such as yeshivas who are harboring draft dodgers. Schneider describes how threats to fire the legislator behind the bill -- head of the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, MK Yuli Edelstein -- may not be enough to placate the haredi parties this time. A motion to expel Hadash-Ta’al chair Ayman Odeh from the Knesset failed to pass on Monday, with only 73 out of the required 90 lawmakers voting in favor. Fifteen MKs voted against the motion, while multiple opposition parliamentarians boycotted the vote. We learn why the petition was put into motion and its ripple effect. Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara was not present as a controversial ministerial panel convened at the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem to hold a hearing on her dismissal Monday afternoon. Schneider explains why Baharav-Miara calls this a "sham" process and shares the outrage the hearing has sparked. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

    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. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Five IDF divisions, made up of tens of thousands of troops, continue to operate across Gaza. Dozens of airstrikes were carried out in the past days, but one in particular has captured international attention: a strike near a Gaza water distribution point that reportedly killed several children. The IDF said Sunday that it was an accident and attributed it to a “technical malfunction.” Fabian reports on the accidental strike and compares the IDF's quick accountability of it to reports of mass deaths from humanitarian aid distribution sites. A proposed plan to establish a “humanitarian city” in southern Gaza’s Rafah continues to receive backlash. According to the plan, at least 600,000 Palestinians would be allowed into a newly rebuilt area of the city after being cleared that they are not Hamas. Some critics -- including former prime minister Ehud Olmert -- allege that it resembles the Nazi concentration camps built during World War II. Fabian talks about the plan, puts it in to the greater context of the entire Gideon's Chariots operation and explains the reported criticism from within the IDF itself. Israeli troops found more than three tons of weapons while raiding military facilities inside Syria, including anti-tank mines, explosive devices, and rockets. The sites had been maintained by the deposed Bashar al-Assad regime. We hear about the raid and the scale of the troops' finds. Israel’s most advanced communications satellite, dubbed Dror-1, was successfully launched into space from Cape Canaveral in the United States on Sunday aboard a Falcon 9 two-stage rocket, manufactured by Elon Musk’s SpaceX. Fabian was inside the Israeli control room and reports back. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

    Donald Trump's foreign policy has been as unstable as the man himself, shifting quickly frompushes for restraint to escalating wars in the Middle East. This volatility is a function not just ofTrump's personality but the contradictions and competing factions that are gathered under theterm America First, as well as the continued power of the foreign policy establishment thatTrump has claimed he defeated but which maintains a strong capacity to shape policy.

    A crisis-level shortage of clergy in North American Reform and Conservative synagogues has led to a fascinating new phenomenon – an exodus of Israeli-born rabbis moving to the United States and Canada to serve as spiritual leaders. On the Haaretz Podcast, Judy Maltz, Haaretz’s Jewish world editor who has reported on the trend, explains how these Israelis are filling an ever-growing need as fewer and fewer young North American Jews are training to be rabbis in non-Orthodox movements. Meanwhile, the number of Israelis receiving rabbinic ordination has grown. “I think what's luring them abroad primarily is the salaries and the conditions,” Maltz told podcast host Allison Kaplan Sommer, adding there was another extremely appealing factor: respect. “A woman rabbi who had recently taken a job in New York said to me ‘I no longer have to prove I'm a rabbi here.’ That is a very appealing factor: being admired and accepted for what you are and your profession, and that you don't have to constantly fight for recognition and legitimacy.” By contrast, in Israel, they are still battling for that legitimacy and even face mockery. The Israeli imports are helping to solve the “very huge shortage of rabbis” to serve U.S. congregations in the non-Orthodox Jewish community “because nobody really wants to go to rabbinical school anymore and the whole business of organized synagogue life has become less appealing,” Maltz explained. With liberal Jews affiliated with Jewish organizations (like synagogues) are having fewer and fewer children, she said, it has also been more difficult for Reform and Conservative congregations to sustain their traditionally strong youth movements “which have been the pipeline tor rabbinical school.” The new imports, Maltz noted, are not only breathing new spiritual life into their new congregations “but since October 7, these Israeli rabbis find themselves serving as a kind of bridge between their congregations and Israel – and as an important resource on information about what's happening in Israel where the news changes so quickly. They are finding themselves in this new and rather unexpected role of explaining what's happening.” Subscribe to Haaretz.com for up-to-the-minute news and analysis from Israel and the Middle East in English.

    In December 2024, the long and bloody stalemate in Syria broke down. In a transformation breathtaking for its suddenness and speed, President Bashar al-Assad, the beating heart of Arab authoritarianism, fled to Russia, his dungeons emptying as rebels overcame the Syrian army with scarcely a fight. Euphoria at the collapse of a government people never voted for was tempered by fear for the future. The victorious insurgents were supported by outside powers and had a track record of brutality comparable to Assad's in addition to religious fanaticism. Syrians—whose fragile, cosmopolitan mosaic has been repeatedly shattered by foreign-backed sectarians—faced rule by an avowedly Islamist regime that pledged to break with its past and show tolerance to all religious communities. In this illuminating and concise survey, Charles Glass shows how Assad's misrule, Sunni fundamentalism, and Western deceit combined to create and prolong the Syrian disaster, which since 2011 has claimed more than two hundred thousand lives and driven more than eight million people from their homes. Glass has reported extensively from the Middle East and travelled frequently in Syria for more than fifty years. Here he melds reportage, analysis, and history to provide an accessible overview of the origins and permutations defining the conflict, situating it clearly in the broader crises of the region. In this new and thoroughly revised edition of his earlier Syria Burning, Glass brings the story to the present, showing how we got here and what a post-Assad settlement might bring. About the Author: Charles Glass was ABC News Chief Middle East Correspondent from 1983 to 1993. Since 1973, he has covered wars in the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans.

    In December 2024, the long and bloody stalemate in Syria broke down. In a transformation breathtaking for its suddenness and speed, President Bashar al-Assad, the beating heart of Arab authoritarianism, fled to Russia, his dungeons emptying as rebels overcame the Syrian army with scarcely a fight. Euphoria at the collapse of a government people never voted for was tempered by fear for the future. The victorious insurgents were supported by outside powers and had a track record of brutality comparable to Assad's in addition to religious fanaticism. Syrians—whose fragile, cosmopolitan mosaic has been repeatedly shattered by foreign-backed sectarians—faced rule by an avowedly Islamist regime that pledged to break with its past and show tolerance to all religious communities. In this illuminating and concise survey, Charles Glass shows how Assad's misrule, Sunni fundamentalism, and Western deceit combined to create and prolong the Syrian disaster, which since 2011 has claimed more than two hundred thousand lives and driven more than eight million people from their homes. Glass has reported extensively from the Middle East and travelled frequently in Syria for more than fifty years. Here he melds reportage, analysis, and history to provide an accessible overview of the origins and permutations defining the conflict, situating it clearly in the broader crises of the region. In this new and thoroughly revised edition of his earlier Syria Burning, Glass brings the story to the present, showing how we got here and what a post-Assad settlement might bring. About the Author: Charles Glass was ABC News Chief Middle East Correspondent from 1983 to 1993. Since 1973, he has covered wars in the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans. He is the author of Syria Burning, Tribes with Flags, The Tribes Triumphant, Money for Old Rope, The Northern Front, Americans in Paris, The Deserters, They Fought Alone and Soldiers Don't Go Mad: A Story of Brotherhood, Poetry, and Mental Illness During the First World War.

With significant US assets—including a large 401(k), vested RSUs, and a US property—plus long-term green card status, their story highlights the intricate financial and tax challenges that come with repatriation. Martin outlines the financial and tax planning challenges they faced, from navigating the U.S. exit tax under the HEART Act to managing currency risk, timing asset sales, and diversifying a concentrated stock position. You'll hear key strategies used to optimize their transition, including why they chose to relinquish their green cards and how they structured the transfer of retirement assets to minimize tax impact in both countries. Whether you're a fellow expat or an advisor helping clients navigate cross-border moves, this episode is packed with actionable insights and cautionary lessons. Key topics covered: • Exit tax traps for long-term green card holders • Cross-border 401(k) and superannuation strategies • Timing asset liquidation and property sales • Managing RSU concentration and unsystematic risk • Tax residency implications during repatriation Links that we discussed in this episode include: • Upcoming events - atlaswealth.com/events • Facebook Group - Australian Expat Financial Forum Facebook Group - www.facebook.com/groups/Australia…atfinancialforum • Ask Atlas - Have your questions answered on the podcast by clicking this link - atlaswealth.com/news-media/austra…he-expat-podcast/ • Expat Mortgage Podcast - atlaswealth.com/news-media/austra…mortgage-podcast/ • Weekly Recap Podcast – atlaswealth.com/news-media/austra…-recap-podcast-4/ If you like the content make sure you let us know by hitting the thumbs up and subscribing as well as providing some feedback in the comments below.

    Trust at scale: Why agentic AI success starts with leadership

    Guest post by Cathy Mauzaize, President, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) at ServiceNow As businesses shift from AI experimentation to full-scale implementation, bridging the AI trust gap has never been more urgent. While AI-driven innovations drive productivity, they also introduce new uncertainties. Executives across the C-suite must take the lead, embracing change and continuous learning. In EMEA, we are at a pivotal moment. Governments and business leaders alike are looking to ensure the benefits of agentic AI are maximised responsibly. As intelligent agents become embedded across front and back-offices, trust and accountability remain top priorities. Governance isn't just IT's responsibility - it requires active leadership from the entire C-suite. As global AI regulations tighten, clear governance can ensure AI is deployed transparently, ethically, and securely. AI decision-making must be explainable and fair to earn trust from employees, customers, and stakeholders. This trust doesn't just happen - it's built by active commitment, which business leaders must champion from the top down. Attitudes towards AI are shifting The dramatic rise in the use of generative AI and agentic AI has raised valid concerns around security, data privacy, regulatory compliance, and even the risk of employee over-reliance on AI, at the expense of human judgment. The key is balance: pairing the speed of AI with the empathy of human insight. ServiceNow's 2025 Consumer Voice Report shows how attitudes are evolving. Today, only a fraction of consumers in EMEA trust AI to handle a suspicious transaction. Yet, in the next three years, 33% say they would trust AI in the same scenario. Growing confidence signals greater comfort with AI handling critical tasks. Crucially, increased trust doesn't remove the need for human oversight. This isn't a choice of one over the other. AI and humans thrive when working together seamlessly, with leaders setting the direction for integrating AI effectively into workflows. Trust in AI starts with data For AI to be effective and trusted, it must be built on a solid foundation of clean, reliable data. I've seen this happen time and again over the past two years with proof-of-concept projects. Without strong data management that ensures accuracy, fairness, and relevance, AI will deliver weak outcomes - and take longer to deliver value. Meanwhile, users trust AI more when they understand how data is used and how decisions are made. However, biased data can lead to biased results, eroding confidence. By taking the lead in identifying bias and maintaining oversight, leaders ensure AI operates responsibly across both teams and data flows. Transparency shouldn't stop at internal audiences. Communicating clearly with customers about how AI processes data helps foster long-term trust and ensures that business impact is fully understood. Innovative leaders put governance and orchestration at the heart of AI adoption, establishing transparency as a core component of their business transformation. Leadership-led AI AI has the power to transform businesses, offering new ways to solve real-world challenges. This isn't some future promise. AI agents are already delivering tangible results today. One utility provider I recently met in the Middle East is a great example - they're exploring how to leverage AI agents to automate billing dispute resolution by analysing historical consumption data, recommending solutions, and triggering downstream actions. The result: faster resolution times, higher customer satisfaction, and reduced operational costs. Given the tangible value, it's no surprise that IDC projects that, by 2025, 50% of organisations will use enterprise AI agents configured for specific business tasks. Yet, the difference between unlocking AI's full value and falling short comes down to leadership. The path to success starts with leadership buy-in and investment in innovations that enable centralised, transparent, a...

Nair said she felt compelled to attend the meetings with the studio because her son had learned to read through J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter books. However, she didn't want to give up on working on her own film, so she asked her then-14-year-old son what to do. “He said to me, ‘Mamma, many good directors can make Harry Potter, but only you can make The Namesake,'” Nair recalled. “And it was such a liberating and clarifying statement, and it kind of is about how I lived my life. Like, what can I do that is so specific that you cannot do? How to make my distinctiveness my calling card.'"

According to a Channel 12 Israeli television report, later today, Israel will present new maps for the IDF’s redeployment in the event of a ceasefire-hostage release deal along the Morag Corridor and perimeter around Gaza after Hamas rejected its previous offer. Magid updates us on the status of the Doha talks and speaks about the blame game from both sides. We hear about how the Trump administration is playing the "Witkoff card" -- or when US envoy to the Mideast Steve Witkoff will finally join the talks and what it will signify when he does. We turn to the results of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's trip to Washington, DC, even as he comes home without any overt deals. What else was on the table for the trip and what was accomplished? Over the past day, security forces arrested six people in connection with an incident in the West Bank yesterday, where settlers allegedly killed two Palestinians on Friday. US citizen Saif al-Din Kamil Abdul Karim Musalat was allegedly beaten to death in Sinjil, a village north of Ramallah, the Palestinian Authority health ministry said. A second man, Mohammed Rizq Hussein al-Shalabi, 23, died after being shot during the attack, according to the Palestinian Authority health ministry.

    In 2023, Megan – a sassy robot, designed to be your daughter's best friend – danced and dismembered her way to internet infamy. The title character of director Gerard Johnstone and writer Akela Cooper's Blumhouse horror-comedy was an evil doll in the tradition of Chucky from Child's Play, but at the same time, distinct in her modernity. As I asked in my review for Empire Magazine at the time: “Has Chucky ever interrupted a stabbing spree to sing Sia's pop smash ‘Titanium'? Has Billy the Puppet ever broken into a TikTok-style dance before another Saw franchise victim met their violent demise?” The answer was no, and a moment in meme culture was born. There were SNL skits about Megan, starring Aubrey Plaza. The film took $181m at the box office against a paltry $12m budget. It seemed inevitable a sequel would follow – and two years later, that sequel is here.Written by Gerard, my guest today, from a story he conceived with Cooper, the film is bigger in every possible regard. It lays on the explosions and spectacle thicker and faster than before, throwing car chases and robot-on-robot fist fights into the mix this time around. It's higher in stakes: the fate of the world is on the line here, as a new rogue A.I threat, Amelia, emerges. And it's also more expansive in the conversation this Frankensteinian fable wants to have about parenthood, as well as the genie-out-of-the-bottle effect of artificial intelligence. But did you know in the first draft of this sequel, Joe Rogan and Snoop Dogg had brief parts written for them? Or that at one point in the script, Cady – played by Violet McGraw – has to fend off her sweet, old grandad in a fight scene in a diner, because he's being controlled by a neuro-chip? Or that the story initially involved Amelia firing missiles into the Middle East, sparking a new conflict in the region – a plot line removed for obvious reasons?In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, Gerard walks me through his fascinating and extremely funny sequel. We get into all the important plot points in spoiler detail – and talk about the pressure of following up a film with the kind of immense digital footprint that the first one had.Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

    In Episode 366 of the Energetic Radio Podcast, hosts Dale Sidebottom and Paul Campbell welcome Craig Randall, a global educator, consultant, and pizza enthusiast, to the show. Craig has served as a teacher and principal around the world, in Asia, the Middle East, South America, and beyond, bringing unique cultural and leadership insights to the field of education.The conversation kicks off with Craig sharing his signature pizza recipe (think Mediterranean flavours on a pesto base!) before diving deep into a topic central to his professional mission: building trust in schools and beyond.Craig unpacks the philosophy behind his work, “Trust-Based Observations,” a groundbreaking system designed to shift teacher observations and feedback from deficit-based to strengths-based, ultimately fostering an environment where trust and genuine growth flourish. He highlights practical strategies for building trust, such as focusing on strengths, asking meaningful questions, conducting observations in a teacher's own classroom, and delaying feedback until a trusting relationship is built.Key topics and takeaways include:The Power of Trust: Why trust is hard to build and easy to lose; essential habits for leaders and coaches.Trust-Based Observations in Action: How unannounced, strengths-based observations, combined with reflective conversations, lower vulnerability and inspire risk-taking and innovation among teachers.Transferable Wisdom: How the same principles can transform parenting, sports coaching, and business relationships anywhere trust and growth are essential.Lessons from Global Education: Craig's reflections on teaching and leading in international schools, the impact of cultural context, and why global experiences shaped him and his family.Personal Insights: Craig's own relationship with trust, how he's built it, where he's been burnt, and why empathy and forgiveness matter.Advice for Educators: Why leading with kindness, building relationships, and prioritising play aren't just nice; they're necessary for learning and innovation.From inspiring metaphors (think “trust marbles in a jar”) to transformative, practical steps, this episode is packed with insights for educators, coaches, parents, and leaders at every level.Resources & Links:Find Craig Randall and learn more about Trust-Based Observations at trustbase.com

    Donald Trump's foreign policy has been as unstable as the man himself, shifting quickly frompushes for restraint to escalating wars in the Middle East. This volatility is a function not just ofTrump's personality but the contradictions and competing factions that are gathered under theterm America First, as well as the continued power of the foreign policy establishment thatTrump has claimed he defeated but which maintains a strong capacity to shape policy. To talkabout Trump's foreign policy and the factional battles that have bedevilled his administration, Ispoke to Justin Logan, director of defense and foreign policy studies at the Cato Institute. In particular we take up the attacks on Elbridge Colby, the under-secretary of defense forpolicy. Colby was the subject of a Politico hatchet job which claimed he was running a rogueforeign policy.

    Hour 1: His Message Is Clear

    Is it possible that a multi-tentacled “creature” has crawled and slithered its way into the halls of power and is moving and influencing lawmakers and policy in our federal government? On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week our guest said that not only is it possible, but that it has been going on for years. He pulled back the multi-layered curtain of government bureaucracy to reveal the names of the people and organizations who, through money or other means continue to impact the attitudes and actions of those charged with representing the American people’s best interests and the dangers they pose to life, liberty and the American family. Let’s face it, if there is one area of life where it is easy to get confused and entangled in ideas and behaviors that are not right for us, it is sex and sexuality. We have been living in a sexually saturated culture for a long time now and without clear guidance believers like anybody else, can make wrong turns that damage our lives and lead us away from the good plans of God for this part of our human experience. Our guest, a highly respected expert in these matters drew us back to God’s word to get us back on the right path. She explained why there is a difference between sex and sexuality, how and why our identity is tied to our sexuality and what it means to live a sexually surrendered life. From time immemorial mankind has loved the good guy VS bad guy story. From twirling mustachioed villains, to black and white hats in the old west, to today’s modern cinematic superpowered heroes and their equally powered enemies, we love a great good guy VS bad guy tale. But why? Our guest explained how our desire to see heroes who fight for the greater good and sacrifice themselves for the betterment of others have deeper roots that most of us understand and that once we do these stories can create bridges of conversation to share the love of Jesus, the ultimate hero who came and sacrificed Himself for others, with those who do not yet know Him. There are some who believe that God has changed His plans for the Jewish people over time and that He has put His promises for them into the church? This is no slight matter! So, we turned to an expert on Jewish history and God’s word to deconstruct this viewpoint and then hold the mirror of God’s word up to it to see if it has any merit. His clear and scripturally grounded explanation helped clear up the cobwebs that many have been looking through regarding this very important issue. The Middle East continues to be unstable, faith and family continue to get attacked from all sides, but the word of God continues to stand tall and firm in truth and power providing guidance and clarity. Janet and Craig once again get beyond the headlines and continue teaching us how to discern truth from confusion in the marketplace of ideas.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
