Naomi Wolf's appearance on the Alex Jones show recently was a masterclass in Israeli talking points, and this will be a masterclass is refuting the latter. Many of these talking points include complete inversions of reality. For example: while talking points are focused on Shariah, which generally does not apply to non-Muslims, and at its core is an ethical code that includes prayer, the Noahide Laws do apply to non-Jews and the punishment for breaking them, including worshiping Jesus, is decapitation.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Did you hear the latest manufactured scandal? MK Tzvi Sukkot destroyed a Palestinian Authority monument that glorifies the terrorist Yaman Faraj, a jihadi terrorist responsible for multiple attacks that have killed and injured dozens of Jews. Of course MK Sukkot did the right thing. The outrage that followed only exposes the complete moral inversion we are living in, and the urgent need for stronger leadership.Journalist Elhanan Gruner reported the monument to the IDF back in early July after ice cream was handed out to village children in Faraj's memory at the monument. The Judea and Samaria Division commander promised to handle it. Days later the IDF claimed they couldn't find it, while soldiers on the ground had already located the monument and were begging for permission to destroy it.Prime Minister Netanyahu then criticized Sukkot for “taking the law into his own hands.” That response is exactly the problem. He should have said to the world: 'You are upset about a monument celebrating a terrorist? Be upset about the daily terror and the PA's pay-for-slay system funded by international money. Of course we will destroy these monuments. This is not a bureaucratic 'taking the law into ones own hands' issue, it is about removing evil.'Remember the hypocrisy. Progressive activists across America toppled, defaced, and destroyed hundreds of historic monuments and statues with barely any lasting internal or international outrage. Yet when a Jewish MK removes a monument that celebrates the murder of Jews, the world and even parts of Israel's leadership erupt in condemnation. That double standard is not accidental. It is the moral inversion at the heart of this conflict.Israel must implement the Rudy Giuliani methodology of rule. Terror monuments are the broken windows of this war. Leaving them standing signals weakness. Destroying them signals that the rules have changed. MK Sukkot did not incite terror, leaving the monument intact and criticizing his actions do.Three years after October 7, these symbols still stand while our enemies laugh at our hesitation. The younger generation that fought this war already understands the difference between legalistic caution and moral clarity. The question is whether our leadership will catch up.Destroy the monuments. Speak the only language the enemy understands.

The latest “settler violence” story from Qusra is another dangerous example of how the Palestinian Authority's misinformation machine is manipulating American officials, international media and even genuine friends of Israel.The incident did not occur deep inside a peaceful Arab village. It unfolded on Jabal Ein Aneva, strategic high ground between Migdalim and the Shilo bloc that the Palestinian Authority has reportedly been working to seize through illegal construction and the creation of facts on the ground.Qusra also has a documented history of terrorism and violent attacks against Jews. Yet that critical context disappeared as Jewish shepherds and families at Tel Talfiot were immediately portrayed as violent extremists and “terrorists.”Even U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee initially repeated this framing before walking back his remarks. Huckabee is a true friend of Israel, but that makes the contaminated information reaching the Trump administration even more alarming.Who benefits from this misinformation?The Palestinian Authority benefits by turning its strategic land grab into a story about Jewish aggression. Qatar also benefits by driving a wedge between Israel and its strongest American supporters, particularly Christians and conservatives. Qatar, a leader of the global Muslim Brotherhood, has hosted Hamas leaders, supported Muslim Brotherhood networks and invested heavily in influence throughout Washington.The same propaganda pattern appeared in the false Taybeh church story: accuse Jews first, generate international condemnation and allow the facts to arrive only after the damage has been done.Criminal violence should always be investigated, regardless of who commits it. But automatically blaming Jews while ignoring ongoing, daily, jihadi Muslim terrorism, illegal PA construction and the strategic battle for Area C is not justice. It is moral inversion.The “settler violence” blood libel does not endanger only hilltop youth. It delegitimizes every Jew living in Judea and Samaria, and ultimately every Israeli.Watch, share, and demand the full truth before another manufactured narrative endangers Jewish lives.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMvFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/
The framework paired Hamas disarmament with an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza. Hawk's read is that the withdrawal was never happening, because the objective has been the land. Then there is the history. For nearly a decade Netanyahu's government permitted Qatari cash to flow into Gaza, delivered by hand on monthly trips. Netanyahu defended it as buying quiet. Critics and intelligence assessments say it helped Hamas govern and arm itself, and former officials allege a deliberate strategy to keep Hamas and the Palestinian Authority divided so that pressure for a two state solution never built. There is also Jericho Wall, the 40 page Hamas battle plan Israeli intelligence held for over a year, and a September 2023 IDF report, both dismissed as beyond Hamas's reach.

Haaretz senior defense columnist Amos Harel joins the Haaretz Podcast to discuss Trump's latest U-turn on Iran, from threatening to bomb the country's infrastructure to once again negotiating with the Islamic Republic over reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Does the president have a plan, or is he just responding to pressure from different directions? How likely is a resumption of full-scale war between Tehran and Jerusalem? And is there truly a lack of interceptors protecting Israel from Iranian missiles? Amos answers all these questions, as we await the president's next step. Meanwhile in Gaza, a new agreement has been announced by the Board of Peace, the international body overseeing the coastal enclave's painfully slow recovery. On paper, it looks great: Hamas will voluntarily disarm, Israel will then withdraw from the areas it occupied after October 7, and reconstruction will move ahead at a faster pace. There's just one problem: No one believes the deal will actually be implemented, and the two sides are already disagreeing over its content and interpretation. Harel and guest host Amir Tibon will discuss the chances for success there, and also the growing danger of escalation in the West Bank after another wave of violent attacks by extremist settlers against Palestinian villages. At what point will the Palestinian population, and perhaps some of the Palestinian Authority's security forces, respond in kind to those attacks and throw the whole region into another round of fighting? And is such a scenario a foregone conclusion, or can it still be avoided? Read more on Haaretz.com The Art of the Deal – or the Art of Bullshit?

Since October 2023, entire industries in Gaza have been wiped out and poverty has increased. In the occupied West Bank, businesses are struggling amid settler violence and increasing restrictions on movement. After the Gaza war began, Israel suspended most work permits for Palestinians in the country. It also withheld billions of dollars in tax revenue collected on behalf of the Palestinian Authority, leaving public sector workers to receive only a fraction of their salaries. The Israeli government has also repeatedly threatened to sever the banking arrangement that connects Palestinian financial institutions to the global economy. But the war has only accelerated decades of policies that left the Palestinian economy deeply dependent on Israel. In this episode of Beyond the Headlines, host Nada AlTaher examines how the Palestinian economy became so intertwined with Israel's financial system – and left it vulnerable to collapse. We hear from Palestinian economist Raja Khalidi and Jalal Abukhater, policy manager at digital rights group 7amleh. We also talk to Bethlehem tour guide Kamal Mukarker about what it means for Palestinians to survive in an economy that many say is being systematically strangled.
US Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor has declined to pause a $655.5 million judgment against the Palestinian Authority and the PLO over attacks that killed and wounded Americans in Israel during the Second Intifada. Attorneys representing the PA argued that such a payment could lead to the collapse of the Palestinian Authority. KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with attorney Nitzana Darshan-Leitner.

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. As Iran rebuffs US President Donald Trump, insisting there are no ongoing talks between the two parties, Magid notes that the regime's denials have frustrated the US leader, while Iran doesn't seem deterred by the president's incendiary language. Magid discusses the sense of anticipation among Board of Peace members about convincing Hamas to agree to its disarmament proposal. The Israeli government, however, is not on board with the plan. And it has continued to carry out strikes against Hamas, notably including terrorists who invaded on October 7, 2023, and those who abducted hostages -- which could sabotage the deal. Israel's objections to the deal, says Magid, has apparently led the board to accept a more gradual withdrawal for Israel from the ceasefire lines in Gaza. In the second half of the podcast, Magid reviews the ongoing banking crisis in the Palestinian Authority, after Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich signed a last-minute waiver that supports Israeli banks providing services crucial to keeping the West Bank economy afloat. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

The Palestinian Authority is facing mounting financial, political, and security challenges, and many believe its future has never been more uncertain. In this episode, we investigate a newly discovered EU-funded Palestinian Authority compound built partly on Israeli state land in northern Samaria, examine how the long-running Fayyad Plan sought to establish a de facto Palestinian state in Area C, and explore why international funding has become critical to the PA's survival. We also take a closer look at Israel's expanding presence in Judea and Samaria, the growing network of new communities and farms, and how these developments connect to the biblical promises found in Amos 9.

Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib, the head of Realign for Palestine, an Atlantic Council project that challenges entrenched narratives in the Israel and Palestine discourse. Alkhatib gives us an overview of the conditions on the ground right now in the Gaza Strip. We learn about an uptick in diseases such as chicken pox due to extreme unsanitary conditions and lack of vaccinations. There are new efforts to allow residents to open bank accounts -- but where is the money to be found even as paper bills are so worn they are disintegrating? Khalil al-Hayya has been elected to be the new leader of Hamas, the terror group announced Monday after months of speculation following a vote in the General Shura Council. We learn how, following the subjugation of protests in the Gaza Strip in late June, al-Hayya's annointing is another signal that the terror group is entrenching its ties with Iran and continuing consultations with Hezbollah. In the second half of the program, we discuss the intensity of support for Hamas in three population centers: the Gaza Strip, the Palestinian Authority, and Jordan. Alkhatib's comment on the Palestinians living in the Hashemite Kingdom may surprise. Finally, Alkhatib describes his new short book, "Hamas and its Two Million Hostages." Part memoir, part explainer, the work is an attempt to offer an approachable take on the past almost three years of war and how Hamas's stranglehold is only tightening on the people in the Strip. And so this week, we ask Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib, what matters now? What Matters Now podcasts are available for download on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

In the nine months since a cease-fire ended full-on war in Gaza, the world's attention has in many ways moved on. That has been especially true since February, with the start of the war in Iran. But the situation in Gaza remains grim and unsettled, and the state of affairs in the West Bank has become increasingly fraught. Meanwhile, the way forward for Palestinian politics is murky, and the prospect of any durable resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict seems more remote than ever. Salam Fayyad served as Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority from 2007 to 2013, after a long career at the International Monetary Fund. In many capitals, including Washington, Fayyad is still considered one of the most effective Palestinian leaders of recent decades. Dan Kurtz-Phelan spoke with him on July 15, on the sidelines of the Aspen Security Forum, about his proposals for building a Palestinian state, delivering humane and effective governance in Gaza, and finding a viable way forward for the Palestinian cause.

Once again, Jewish communities in Israel came under attack on Shabbat as jihadi arsonists targeted the community of Chavat Gilad in Samaria (Shomron). Families were forced to evacuate during the holy day as flames spread, with reports indicating that around 30 homes and businesses were destroyed. Israeli Police have detained two Palestinian Authority policemen in connection with the incident.In a separate incident, a jihadi woman was caught on camera attempting to ignite fires near a Jewish community in eastern Gush Etzion. Thankfully, that fire was contained before causing any damage to the Jewish community.These attacks are not isolated events. During Israel's dry summer months, arson terrorism has repeatedly been used as a low-cost but highly destructive tactic against Jewish communities throughout Judea and Samaria and other parts of Israel. This raises difficult questions about the ideology motivating these attacks and why peace has remained so elusive.In this video, Avi Abelow examines the broader context of these incidents, discusses the involvement of Palestinian Authority policemen in many attacks against Israelis, and explores the ideas of former Labor MK Einat Wilf, who has argued that modern Palestinian nationalism developed primarily to destroy the Jewish state of Israel, not around building an independent state for themselves.The video also reflects on the international reaction following the October 7 massacre, including the wave of pro-Hamas demonstrations seen in many Western cities, and asks what these events reveal about the challenges Israel faces both on the battlefield and in the battle of ideas.If you value honest analysis, historical context, and an unapologetic pro-Israel perspective, subscribe to Pulse of Israel, like this video, and share it with others.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMvFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/
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. The US House on Wednesday defeated a vote to end Israel aid. Still, with nearly 50% of Democrats backing the measure, Magid notes the significance of the measure and the vote, which he says sends the message that Israel will not have the bipartisan support it used to have if it continues its current policies toward the Palestinians. Magid reviews the recent visit of US lawmaker Ro Khanna to the West Bank, where he was briefly detained in a Palestinian village by Israeli settlers. Magid examines whether the incident was later amplified by Khanna or constitutes another case of settler violence. He touches on the venting JD Vance did during a recent podcast hosted by Joe Rogan, in which the US vice president expressed frustration over an Israeli social media campaign that criticizes the Iran deal. The latest round of Israel-Lebanon talks ended in Rome, and while the tone was positive, Magid tells us that it's unclear whether Israel will be withdrawing anytime soon from the two agreed-upon pilot zones in southern Lebanon. He opines that Israel's reluctance is probably tied to the upcoming elections and notes that the lack of progress is a sore spot for the Lebanese. The Board of Peace is progressing with plans for Gaza, with its own set of pilot zones, says Magid, but those plans are still theoretical for now. And he tells us that the Palestinian Authority has brought in an outside consultancy to vouch for progress in its reform of West Bank prisoner payments, in an attempt to prove that it is no longer incentivizing attacks on Israelis. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Custom Maid Palestine for New World Disorder https://custommaidbooks.com/product/custom-maid-palestine-for-new-world-disorder/ Publish and ship date: August 1, 2026 The book proposes a two-state solution that will require Arab countries and Israel to redraw their borders to let a Palestinian state take shape with Jerusalem as its capital. Historical Palestine included the territory that Israel, Gaza, West Bank, Lebanon, southern Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt occupy today. The idea that Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank relocate to a new homeland has merit. However, rather than moving to Jordan, Egypt, South Sudan, or other countries in Africa, it could be a newly created state in what has always been part of the Territorial Province of Palestine. It is well known that the borders of Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Jordan, Syria and Israel, were established by the British and French for their own political and economic interests. Therefore, there is no reason these borders cannot be redrawn to accommodate a Palestinian state. What is essential now is for Palestinians worldwide to unite and advocate for the establishment and global recognition of a Palestinian state that is independent of Hamas and the Palestinian Authority. The proposed Palestinian state deserves serious consideration as it presents the best opportunity to create a viable modern nation that can peacefully coexist with Israel.
In today's episode of Trending Middle East, hostilities across the Gulf escalate again after Iranian missiles strike two UAE supertankers in the Strait of Hormuz, killing one sailor and injuring eight. The attacks follow a third consecutive night of US strikes on Iran, while President Donald Trump proposes a 20 per cent transit charge for vessels using the strait under US protection. We look at the wider impact on travel, as the UK updates its advice for visitors to the UAE, while airports across the Emirates continue operating with only limited disruption despite the latest military escalation. In Yemen, Saudi Arabia comes under renewed attack from Houthi rebels, with ballistic missiles intercepted after explosions at Sanaa International Airport, prompting UN calls to avoid a return to full-scale conflict. Lebanese and Israeli delegations are also due to meet in Rome for the latest round of US-backed negotiations, with the future of southern Lebanon and Israel's proposed withdrawal from pilot zones at the centre of discussions. And the European Union launches an €883.6 million ($1,000) recovery initiative for Gaza, bringing together 15 international partners to restore essential services and support reconstruction as the Palestinian Authority presses ahead with governance reforms.

In today's episode of Trending Middle East, more explosions are reported across southern Iran as regional mediators work to revive negotiations between the US and Tehran. We also look at the next phase of the US-backed agreement between Lebanon and Israel, with the first "pilot security zone" expected to be established within days, before talks are held in Rome. But Israeli leaders insist the country's forces will remain in southern Lebanon for "as long as necessary". The Palestinian Authority announces the first legislative elections in two decades, with voting scheduled for November and a series of electoral reforms aimed at broadening representation. In Iraq, investigators uncover millions of dollars hidden in a drainage pit as the country's anti-corruption campaign expands. The discovery adds to a growing list of cash, gold and property seizures. And in Dubai, the Metro Blue Line reaches a major construction milestone after completing its first phase of tunnelling. The Dh20.5 billion ($5.6 billion) project is expected to transform transport across the emirate when it opens in 2029. Trending Middle East is AI-assisted, using original reporting published in The National and curated and edited by humans.

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 Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a deal Wednesday meant to end the Middle East war, causing it to go into effect two days earlier than originally envisioned, with Tehran agreeing to dilute its enriched uranium in return for large-scale economic relief. Magid takes us through the points of primary concern for Israel, including its right of self-defense against Hezbollah attacks. In a lengthy press conference at the G7 summit in France yesterday, Trump claimed Iran should be allowed to keep some of its ballistic missiles. He also repeatedly castigated Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, including stating he is less justified in criticizing the memorandum of understanding that Trump signed with Iran because the Israeli premier purportedly pulled out of a joint operation to kill top Iranian general Qassem Soleimani in 2020. We hear other sharp criticisms of Netanyahu, including accusations of disproportionate force. In the second half of the program, Magid brings his exclusive scoop that the US is in talks with the Palestinian Authority about boosting what has been a strained bilateral relationship, as Washington seeks Ramallah’s cooperation to advance its landmark policy initiatives in the region. And who is chaperoning the reforms DC is seeking? Enter Saudi Arabia. And finally, Magid explains how former UK prime minister Tony Blair is taking on a larger role in the Board of Peace, where he will be tasked with managing the various mechanisms that are meant to oversee the postwar management of Gaza.

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 correspondent Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Defense Minister Israel Katz vowed Monday that the Israeli military will remain in southern Lebanon and warned that if Iran strikes, it will be hit “with full force,” promising that Israel will resist any pressure after the US and Iran agreed a deal to end the war that also reportedly includes a commitment to end hostilities in Lebanon. We hear about where the IDF is currently holding in southern Lebanon and the strike on Beirut that almost derailed the Iran-US memorandum of understanding last night. Late last week, senior Hezbollah commander Ali Mussa Daqduq, mastermind of a January 2007 attack that killed five US troops in Iraq, was killed in an Israeli strike in southern Lebanon, the IDF announced Sunday. Who was this terror architect and what else was he responsible for? The IDF seeks to erect, for the first time, a permanent post in an area meant to be fully controlled by the Palestinian Authority. The post is set to be built in the northern West Bank’s Jenin refugee camp. What is the purpose of this first permanent post in Area A?

It has been a bit more than six years since then Commandant of the Marine Corps, General David Berger, USMC, initiated what became known as Force Design 2030 (now just known as Force Design). What followed was a controversial change to the structure of the United States Marine Corps intended to address the challenge posed by the People's Republic of China in the western Pacific.Now more than halfway to the original 2030 target, and informed by events from Ukraine and Southwest Asia since 2020, both long-standing critics of the design and other voices are readdressing the changes—and the critique—to see if it remains the right path.Joining the Midrats Podcast is General Anthony Zinni, USMC (Ret.).SummaryIn this episode, retired General Anthony Zinny discusses the evolution of Marine Corps force design, its strategic implications, and the importance of a flexible, well-analyzed approach to military modernization.Show LinksGeneral Anthony Zinni, USMC (Ret.) full bioForce Design 2030Marine leaders drop ‘2030' from name of ambitious overhaul planUSMC Force Design Update from 2023The Marines Must Think Bigger Than Small Units, Real Clear Defense, December 09, 2025, Anthony Zinni & Jerry McAbee , Timothy WellsMore funding for the wrong programs won't fix the Marine Corps, Washington Times, July 10, 2025, by Gen.

Following his retirement from active duty, General Zinni continued to serve in senior diplomatic roles, including as the U.S. Special Envoy to Israel and the Palestinian Authority (2001–2003) and later as Special Envoy to Qatar (2017–2019). He is the author of several books, including the New York Times bestsellers Battle Ready (with Tom Clancy) and The Battle for Peace, as well as Leading the Charge and Before the First Shots Are Fired. Additionally, he continues working in academic positions and as a speaker on geopolitics, ethical leadership, and America's role in the world.
Fatah, the leading party within the Palestinian Authority, has just made a major shift in the way the government will operate, and it's not good for Israel. They have just brought into the party nearly 400 convicted terrorists, mostly those who have killed Israelis, and these terrorists will play a major part in shaping the future of the party. And that future may be much closer, and much more dangerous than many realize. This move may have major implications for the future of Judea and Samara, what many people call the west bank, and more broadly, the entire State of Israel.

In this powerful interview, Avi Abelow speaks with Maurice Hirsch, a retired IDF Lieutenant Colonel and one of Israel's top experts on Palestinian Authority lawfare, terrorist financing, and pay-for-slay policies.Maurice Hirsch served 19 years in the IDF Military Advocate General's Corps, eventually serving as Director of the Military Prosecution for Judea and Samaria. He currently heads the Initiative for Palestinian Authority Accountability and Reform at the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs (JCFA).In this hard-hitting conversation, Hirsch makes a compelling case for why Israel must implement the death penalty for terrorists. He explains how Israel's current policy of releasing terrorists has repeatedly led to more Jewish deaths, and why executing terrorists is both a moral necessity and a critical deterrent.The discussion goes deep into Palestinian Authority lawfare, the “pay for slay” terror financing system, the failures of the Israeli legal establishment, and the urgent reforms needed to win the war against jihadi terror.With decades of insider experience, Maurice Hirsch exposes how the Palestinian Authority continues to glorify and fund terrorism while using international law as a weapon against the Jewish state. He offers clear, no-nonsense solutions for restoring Israeli deterrence and moral clarity.Essential viewing for anyone interested in Israel death penalty for terrorists, Palestinian Authority supported terrorism, Israeli security policy, IDF legal system, and the future of the war against Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Palestinian Authority.Watch now and share this important interview.Am Yisrael Chai!!!Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GkavRznXy731nxxRyptCMvFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/
Send us Fan MailThis is Understanding Israel Palestine. I'm Margot Patterson, the producer of this week's episode. 'll be talking to Robert Malley again, Mideast peace negotiator and author of the recent book Tomorrow is Yesterday: Life, Death and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine after news briefs.A yearlong Al Jazeera investigation found that as many as 51 countries armed Israel during its war on Gaza — including many that publicly condemned Israel, announced embargoes on weapons sales to the country, and demanded a ceasefire.These weapon transfers took place after the International Court of Justice warned on Jan. 26, 2024 that there was a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza and reminded states of of their obligations to act to prevent genocide under the Geneva Convention. All of the 51 states arming Israel were signatory to the convention, yet arms shipments to Israel actually increased after the warning. The Al Jazeera report was based primarily on an analysis of Israeli Tax Authority import data between 2022 and 2025. The 5 largest suppliers of military goods to Israel were the United States, India, Romania, Taiwan and the Czech Republic.A French activist shared on live TV what she experienced in Israeli detention after Israeli forces abducted members of the Global Summed Flottilla seeking to bring humanitarian aid to Gaza. The 428 activists on 54 boats were intercepted May 19th in international waters and taken to Israel where their mistreatment in Israeli custody stirred international outcry after National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir posted a video showing him taunting blindfolded, bound activists. On French TVMay 23, Merriam Hadjal said she was slapped, beaten, kneed in the ribs and repeatedly groped and sexually assaulted by multiple Israeli soldiers. Hadjal is one of numerous flotilla activists who have come forward alleging sexual violence in Israeli custody, including claims of sexual assault and rape by Israeli soldiers. Flotilla organizers say at least 15 of the detained activists reported sexual assault.Israel conducted more than 120 air strikes on southern and eastern Lebanon on May 26, after IPrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel will escalete its war on the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah.The entire city of Tyre, and at least 10 southern villages in Lebanon have been ordered to evacuate. The expanding war violates a nominal April 16 ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel and threatens to complicate negotiations between Iran and the U.S. IIran has said any agreement to end the war should end hostilities on all fronts, including Lebanon. Since March 2, at least 32oo have been killed in Lebanon and 9700 wounded. More than 1 million people in Lebanonhave been displaced.My guest today is Robert Malley, a Middle East expert and specialist in conflict negotiation.. He served as Special Assistant to President Clinton for Arab-Israeli affairs from 1998-2001 and was among the peace negotiators at the Camp David Summit of 2000. He was a member of the National Security Council during the the Obama administration and was lead negotiator of the Iran nuclear deal. He was President Biden's envoy to Iran and is now at Yale University's Jackson School of Global Affairs. His book, Tomorrow is Yesterday: Life, Death and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine, was co-authored with Hussein Agha and looks at how the Oslo Accords deteriorated into an endless peace process that became a joke and then a fraud. This is the second of a two-part conversation. The first part aired May 15. You can find it on our program page on the KKFI website at www. kkfi.org or listen to it on our podcast available on most streaming platforms. Robert Malley, thanks for coming on the program again. When we spoke earlier, you talked about how the two-state solution has always been more popular with the international community than with either Israelis or Palestinians. That made it a heavy lift from the get-go. Not impossible, but difficult.In your book, you paint a very honest, nuanced picture of Yasser Arafat, who succeeded in convincing Palestinians that a Palestinian state on 22% of historic Palestine was not a betrayal of their rights and aspirations but a worthy goal. Could you talk more about Arafat and how the very traits that enabled him to unify and lead the Palestinian people made him suspect in Israeli and American eyes? Malley: It's a great question because he is the target of such contradictory perceptions and images in the West. The fact that he never left his military garb, that he, sometimes insisted on carrying a gun, spoke in very militant terms, particularly when he spoke to his own audience, particularly when he spoke in Arabic. All of that convinced many Americans, and certainly a majority of Israelis, that he was somebody with whom ultimately a peace couldn't be made because he could never give up on the aspirations of being a fighter, a militant in their eyes, often a terrorist. Now, Palestinian eyes, those are the traits that made it possible for him to sell some compromises which otherwise would have been even more difficult to swallow. You just mentioned the principal one, which is that even though the fight that the Palestinians have waged from, 1948 onwards was not a fight for a state on 22% of historic Palestine, it was a fight for liberation of all the land. It was a fight for the return of the refugees. And so his efforts, which were to make the Palestinians view that compromise not as a defeat but as a triumph, not as surrender but as conquest, was in part due to the fact that he retained, in their eyes, precisely the image that the West and Israel found repugnant, which is the image of somebody who would not drop his gun, who would not trade in his military garb for a diplomatic outfit, who would not only speak in the diplomatic language, but in the language of a rebel, of a militant, of a revolutionary. In some ways, what made it possible for him to sell the compromise to his own people made it very difficult and sometimes impossible for other audiences, Israeli or Western, to believe a word he said. Q.: You note that Americans were very deferential to the political constraints facing different Israeli leaders, but ignored those affecting Palestinian leaders. That was true for Arafat, but also for Mahmoud Abbas, Arafat's successor and the man who has led the Palestinian Authority for umpteen years now. Abbas believed that nonviolence was the only way forward for the Palestinian cause and has lived that credo, but his efforts to advance statehood have gone nowhere. How did the United States unwittingly sabotage him? How do you think they failed him, and why haven't his efforts been able to go anyplace?Malley: A word on your first point. The U.S. identifies much more closely with Israel; they are more familiar with its political system. We could debate how much a democracy it is, since today the majority of the people living under Israeli governance, half of the people, don't have the same rights as others and a large percentage, the Palestinians living in the West Bank and Gaza, have no political rights at all when it comes to Israel's political system. So you could debate how democratic Israel, is, but certainly from an American perspective, it's a system that runs through parliamentary elections an election system that we can understand with regular polling and regular elections. The Palestinian system is a very different one, and I think in the eyes of many Americans, and this doesn't just apply to the Palestinians, it applies to many other countries, and particularly many Arab countries, they view it as more of a one-man show, in the past, the one-man show of Arafat, then the one-man show of Abbas, in which they believe that even though sometimes there are the accoutrements of democracy, the elections don't mean all that much. The system can be run in a more autocratic way by the supreme leader, in this case the head of the PLO, Palestine Liberation Organization, head of Fatah, the main party, the head of the Palestinian Authority. They believe that Palestinian politics don't matter, that ultimately because they project this image of a system that is run by a single person or by a small group of people, that they can impose whatever they want on their own population. Public opinion doesn't really matter. You hear that when people speak about Saudi Arabia, when they speak about Egypt, when they speak about many of these countries that either are not democratic or don't have a form of democracy that the U.S .is accustomed to. Whereas in fact, it doesn't work that way at all. Precisely because the Palestinian leadership doesn't have, and Arafat didn't have, those regular mechanisms in which his authority could be validated at the polls, in which you had democratic institutions that would legitimize his rule, he was very dependent on a popular form of consensus for his decision-making, and he couldn't afford to stray too far away from that core center of gravity, that consensus, because then he would have no legitimacy at all. And that's been true of one Palestinian leader after another. I think there is this misperception that because Israel is more, quote-unquote, "democratic," we need to pay attention and sometimes excessive attention. I can't tell you how many times I heard American officials for whom I was working saying, "We can't do X or Y or Z because it will imperil the coalition in power because of the democratic institutions and processes that Israel has to go through." I never heard that when it came to the Palestinians. It was, if Arafat wants it, Arafat could get it. If the next leadership would want it, it could get it. If the next leadership would
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 Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump indicated during a Wednesday cabinet meeting that progress in talks with Iran on a deal to end the war had slowed, departing from his assertion at the start of the week that an agreement was nearly finalized. On Thursday, Israelis awoke to the news that the US had struck Iranian targets for a second time this week for "defensive" purposes. Later in the morning, it was reported that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps targeted an American base in retaliation for US strikes on the country’s south. At the same time, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has instructed the IDF to broaden its activities against Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. Magid helps us unravel where things stand in the negotiations, even as the ceasefire appears to be evermore fragile and the chances for a deal increasingly remote. Also during the Wednesday cabinet meeting, for the second time this week, the president suggested he may not sign a deal with Iran if neighboring Gulf countries do not normalize ties with Israel under the Abraham Accords. Magid explains how this stance could actually blow up in the face of the US. In the second half of our program, we turn to the leadership vacuum in the Gaza Strip. Hamas on Wednesday confirmed the death of Mohammed Odeh, the newly appointed head of the terror group’s military wing, who Israel killed in a strike in Gaza City. Whatever happened with last month's elections to appoint a new Hamas head? And finally, we hear the scoop behind Shin Bet chief David Zini's meeting with the Palestinian Authority’s exiled former Gaza security chief Mohammed Dahlan during a recent visit to the United Arab Emirates. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

The Israeli Knesset is currently advancing a bill that looks to the world a lot like annexation of the West Bank, but what in reality, is simply a desperate attempt to save thousands of historical and archaeological heritage sites in Judea and Samaria, or what could also be known as - the Bible Belt of the Middle East. For years, the Palestinian Authority has been covertly working to destroy heritage sites in this region, and since the world's attention has been centered around the implementation of the two-state solution, and Israel has been largely occupied with defending themselves and stopping terrorism, these all too important sites have been largely overlooked and forgotten. As an American Christian Zionist living in the heart of Judea and Samaria, I have not only had an up close view of this secret war, but our team has even been involved in helping to preserve some of these locations. We even went so far as to fly our drone to one of the most significant sites in Samaria every single day, just to make sure it was not being bulldozed by the Palestinian Authority. More on that later on. Luke Hilton breaks it down for you.

The U.S. State Department reached a new settlement committing to strictly enforce the Taylor Force Act, a measure Congress first passed in 2018, which bans U.S. economic aid to the Palestinian Authority until they end their "pay-for-slay" policies that compensate imprisoned terrorists or their families. The Palestinian Authority "Pay-for-Slay" policy gained wide public attention when Taylor Force, a West Point graduate who served in Afghanistan and Iraq, was savagely knifed to death by a Palestinian terrorist on March 8, 2016, while on a tour of Israel. This new settlement is to remain in effect for 10 years. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Stuart Force, father of Taylor Force, who says his son would be proud of the efforts to stop American taxpayer money from getting to terrorists.

As tensions continue to rise during the Iran War ceasefire, is true peace possible? In this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd and Pastor Rich Jones examine the ongoing conflict with Iran and address this critical question shaping the future of the Middle East. Together, they discuss the latest developments surrounding Iran, Israel's security concerns, shifting alliances in the Middle East, and the growing international pressure for peace. Could the current conflict pave the way for greater instability—or set the stage for a temporary peace foretold in the Bible? What should Christians understand about these unfolding events, and how can believers stand with Israel during such a pivotal time?Visit the Blessors of Israel Website: https://www.blessors.org/ Thank you for supporting Blessors of Israel.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, Democratic Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner is a profoundly disturbed individual whom Democrats refuse to disavow because they prioritize power above all else. Platner, who's a self-described Communist, trashes American troops and police and he must be stopped from reaching the Senate. Then there's a woman running in the Democrat primary for Texas's 35th congressional district who advocated placing Zionists in concentration camps and worse. Jewish elected Democrats need to leave this party, which is now the party of Islamists, Marxists, and neo-Nazis. Also, WABC's John Catsimatidis calls in to discuss the difficulties of running supermarkets in NYC and the proposal by Mayor Mamdani for city government-run grocery stores. He argued that government stores giving away these products would take sales from private businesses, harming the workers who labor 70-80 hours a week and ultimately burdening taxpayers when the city absorbs the losses, while politicians face no consequences. Later, Gad Saad calls in to discuss his new book - Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind. This book is not an attack on empathy itself—an evolutionarily relevant virtue rooted in theory of mind or cognitive empathy that enables good human interactions—but rather a warning against its hyper-firing in the wrong situations toward the wrong targets. This critique of maladaptively irrational altruism has gripped our culture. This mind parasite hijacked the empathy module of our progressive elite, leading to a catastrophic miscalibration of moral priorities. Afterward, America First Legal (AFL) and the Trump Administration secured a major victory for peace and the rule of law by settling Jackson et al. v. Trump et al., a lawsuit that enforces the Taylor Force Act and ends U.S. funding of the Palestinian Authority's “Pay to Slay” program. This agreement is a durable enforcement of federal law that honors victims, prevents taxpayer subsidization of terror, and advances President Trump's commitment to peace.

The European Union has given money and support to the Palestinian Authority to make facts on the ground, which go against the Oslo accords and other agreements made, but not kept. Tamar Yonah speaks to Naomi Kahn, Director of Regavim's International Division about this article below. The Regavim Movement Responds to European Union Sanctions: “European hypocrisy will not deter us. We are Israel.” “We consider it a badge of honor that the European Union has chosen to include us on the distinguished list of defenders of the Land of Israel." "For two decades, we have exposed the massive funding invested by the European Union in the establishment of a Palestinian terror state — in violation of the law and international agreements — including the funneling of millions of European taxpayers' money toward illegal construction on the national lands of the Jewish People and support for organizations that aid terrorism. To the dismay of those who seek to harm Israel and Israelis, the courts have repeatedly accepted our petitions against rampant illegal construction and land seizure, ruling that the law must be enforced. In the face of false and antisemitic ‘settler violence' campaigns, we have consistently published the facts and irrefutable data, defending the good name of IDF soldiers, the Jewish communities of Judea and Samaria and the State of Israel as a whole. " The attempt to silence us — and to quell the Zionist revolution in Judea and Samaria of which our research and policy formulation are a proud and active part— through draconian sanctions only fills us with pride. We pledge to continue working to restore governance and sovereignty throughout all parts of our homeland." We are Israel. www.Regavim.org The Tamar Yonah Show 17MAY2026 - PODCAST
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 Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump says the US will be pausing the operation Project Freedom that it launched on Monday to assist vessels stuck in the Strait of Hormuz due to progress made in talks toward a permanent ceasefire with Iran. Magid parses Trump's Truth Social post announcement and updates us on statements made earlier in the day by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The US-led Board of Peace, the newly formed body tasked with overseeing the postwar management of Gaza, does not intend to hold Israel to the terms of the October 2025 Gaza ceasefire if Hamas does not accept the international panel’s framework for the terror group’s disarmament, a document obtained by Magid shows. We hear the potential implications of this new approach. And finally, we turn to a new report on a recurring issue: The US State Department informed Congress last month that the Palestinian Authority has not ceased making payments to the families of security prisoners and slain attackers, despite reforming, and ostensibly ending, its system of cash transfers awarded in accordance with the amount of time served behind Israeli bars. Magid unravels this knotty issue. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.
