De jure state in the Middle East
POPULARITY
Israel just learned that the US and Iran have agreed to a deconfliction cell with Lebanon — and Israel wasn't in the room. As the dust settles on a war whose outcome is, at best, ambiguous, Yonit and Jonathan sit down with former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, who wants his old job back. Bennett doesn't hold back: on why he believes this government dragged out a war Israel was never built to fight, on the "infinite power of propaganda" keeping Netanyahu afloat three years after October 7th, and on whether he can trust Trump — or JD Vance — to look out for Israel's interests when Israel isn't at the table. He also lays out, in detail, what he'd do differently on the Haredi draft, the judiciary, the Palestinians, and Ben Gvir and Smotrich — and admits the polls aren't moving the way he hoped. 00:00 Introduction: Naftali Bennett joins Unholy 00:09 The Iran deal and the deconfliction cell with Lebanon 03:18 Would he have avoided this war altogether? 06:29 Did Netanyahu prolong the war for political reasons? 08:05 Trust in Trump and JD Vance on Iran 13:11 Reports the Trump administration is opening channels to him 15:19 What would actually change if Bennett became PM? 17:39 The Kogat story: improving Palestinian quality of life without a state 21:51 Pushback: is a two-state "spectrum" really viable? 24:06 Why he opposes full Palestinian sovereignty 24:39 Mansour Abbas and Arab parties in a Bennett coalition 26:52 Lapid, the polls, and stepping aside for Eisenkot 29:34 Judicial reform: would he continue where this government left off? 31:26 Why Ben Gvir and Smotrich are out 33:51 Fears of a "January 6th" scenario in Israel 36:16 Was joining forces with Lapid a mistake? 39:21 Did Bennett change, or did Israel change? 42:05 The story that brought him back: a scientist in tears 44:43 How is Netanyahu still in this race?
Israel did something this week that was so bold, it has changed the face of Judea and Samaria forever. And no, it has nothing to do with the disastrous Iranian/Hezbollah/American deal that Trump just signed….

Hamas has quietly admitted it will pay stipends to 50,000 widows of fighters killed in Gaza — a stunning revelation that reveals the majority of those killed in Gaza were terrorists…. not civilians. Meanwhile, the UN Secretary-General congratulated Iran on the anniversary of their Islamic Revolution, even as the regime kills its own people and continues funding terror across the entire Middle East. At the same time, Prime Minister Netanyahu met with President Trump at the White House this week for a three-hour discussion focused on Iran's military buildup, ballistic missiles, and ongoing negotiations that could spell disaster for Israel. We also examined growing concerns over a potential U.S.–Iran deal, reports that Hamas may not be forced to disarm, Indonesia preparing to send thousands of troops to Gaza, and escalating security incidents along the Israel-Egypt border.

Examples of anti-Semitic and terror attacks towards Jews around the world have surged in recent years, especially since October 7th and the ensuing war. Last month, a father and son duo in Australia killed fifteen people and injured more than two dozen others at a Hanukah celebration, which authorities called an ISIS-inspired terrorist attack. Following the attack, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he warned Australia that the country's policies began festering an anti-Semitic tone after calling for the formation of a Palestinian State. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Rabbi Yaakov Menken, the Executive Vice President of the Coalition for Jewish Values, who says these anti-Semitic attacks should not just be viewed as hatred towards Jewish lives, but hatred towards all life.

Originally aired 9/11/25: Mary welcomes back Bill Wilson of The Daily Jot to pull the curtain back on some inconvenient truths – inconvenient for those who don’t like truth telling, anyway. In the aftermath of yesterday’s shocking headline of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, sometimes the bedrock of truth will go head to head with wickedness and a high price is paid. Worldviews clash daily in these times, but embedded in the series of decisions that were made to take this man’s life over ideology is the true definition of “crossing the rubicon” – and America will take a long time to recover from this, if we do. Today we also discuss the the political polarization fallout of the Sars/Cov pandemic, accompanied by the general declining trust in public health measures that followed, along with more intense political division. If it only took a couple weeks for Fauci and his ilk to shut our country down, why has it taken an additional 4 years to finish a thought on the scam of the century? Well, there are those who are finally getting around to spelling it out. We also chat about lawfare against Trump’s agenda, Senator Tim Kaine’s radical views, and the myth of the Palestinian State. Set for September 22, the UN is continuing to push hard for that unknown state for an unknown people (see, “terrorists”). But Trump has disallowed visas for Mahmoud Abbas and 80 of his closest friends in terror. Now what? Well, change of venue perhaps. Stay tuned. A full hour with a prophecy watcher and journalist.

It's News Day Tuesday on the Majority Report On today's program: The Bureau of Labor Statistics has released its November data, showing negative job growth in three of the past six months, alongside the lowest unemployment rate since 2021. Keep in mind that Donald Trump fired much of the BLS staff and replaced them with loyalists so the real numbers may be much worse. Jesse Rabinowitz, the communications director for the National Homelessness Law Center joins Sam and Emma to discuss Utah's plan to build an involuntary "treatment center" on the outskirts of Salt Lake City. Abdul El-Sayed joins the program to discuss his U.S. Senate campaign in Michigan, outlining his support for Medicare for All, his views on Gaza, filibuster reform, and the challenges facing everyday Michiganders. In the Fun Half: After several prominent GOP leaders condemned his vile Truth Social post blaming "Trump Derangement Syndrome" for Rob Reiner's murder, Trump doubled down on the rhetoric and the fallout is snowballing. The Megyn Kelly wrap up show is flooded with phone calls of republican voters expressing their anger with Trumps comments on Rob Reiner. White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles gives an interview to Vanity Fair in which she unloads on Trump's inner circle, attacking Elon Musk, JD Vance, Pam Bondi, Russ Vought and even Trump himself. Benjamin Netanyahu waited a whole 2 hours to blame the Bondi Beach shooting on Australia's signaling towards recognizing a Palestinian State. Meanwhile Senator Lindsay Graham blames the shooting on Joe Biden and Barack Obama in an intoxicated rant. Joe Rogan shows that he has more in common with the billionaires he pals around with then his audience during a rant against taxation. Dave Rubin is selling t-shirt that read "Moron Zamboni" in a cringe attempt to mock NYC mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani All that and more. The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Lazar Focus. Each Friday, join host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan and diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. Last week, the pair spoke with foremost urban warfare expert John Spencer and Borschel-Dan noted that a term -- “nation-building” -- was raised repeatedly. In this week's episode, we explore this concept, starting with defining the term. We hear about previous models of nation-building, starting from Japan and Germany, following their defeats in World War II. We learn how these attempts were successful -- and former enemies quickly turned into allies. We then turn to more recent history with the West's attempts to reshape Afghanistan and Iraq. What were the differences between the two wars and their aftermaths? And finally, Berman applies the lessons learned in these previous attempts at nation-building and conjectures how they could -- or could not -- be applied in Gaza. Lazar Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by the Pod-Waves.

Jonathan Schanzer Jonathan Schanzer discusses Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), calling him a deeply flawed but essential leader driving Saudi modernization and normalization with Israel, with a "pathway to a Palestinian state" as the current diplomatic objective, emphasizing that resolving the Gaza situation and achieving broader peace hinges on eliminating Hamas, while the region faces long-term challenges from Iran and Turkey, the latter complicating Israel's security operations in chaotic Syria, with the UN endorsement of the Trump 20-point plan for Gaza reconstruction considered a landmark win.

Watch our epic film about Iran and 'Operation Rising Lion' when it drops on November 23rd! theisraelguys.com Support the work of The Israel Guys: https://theisraelguys.com/donate/ The United States is pushing a shocking new UN resolution that could open the door to a Palestinian State, complete with an international stabilization force and a "political horizon" for Gaza. Israel is pushing back, Hamas is rejecting it, and the entire region is bracing for what comes next. In today's episode, we break down what's actually in this proposal, why both sides are furious, and what this means for the future of the Middle East.

A ceasefire is holding in Gaza. Aid is beginning to flow. The remaining Israeli hostages have been released, as have nearly 2,000 Palestinians from Israeli detention. This has been a truly remarkable day in the Middle East. But can this positive momentum be sustained? I recorded this conversation with Matt Duss of the Center for International Policy just moments after Donald Trump met with an impressive array of world leaders in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, in a ceremony designed to cement his personal investment in this peace plan. We kick off by discussing the significance of the spectacle and ceremony in Sharm el-Sheikh, then have a longer conversation about how the ceasefire came together and the many pitfalls that remain. This ceasefire is fragile. Hamas is reconstituting. And the Israeli government remains opposed to a viable Palestinian State. But this is nonetheless a significant inflection point after two years of brutal war.

The practical implications of this “diplomatic wave” are yet to be seen, but the Israeli Government is taking the move seriously, as many interpret Palestinian recognition as a reward for Hamas' terrorism. Meanwhile, the IDF continues its operations in Gaza City. To discuss the implications of recognizing Palestinian statehood and the evolving situation in Gaza, Dan was joined by Ark Media contributors Nadav Eyal and Amit Segal.

President Trump and top officials turned Charlie Kirk's memorial into both a tribute and a political rally, with Trump calling him a martyr and vowing to continue his fight. The president is also pressuring Attorney General Pam Bondi to pursue prosecutions of his political enemies, while forcing out a U.S. attorney who resisted. And several countries just recognized Palestine as a sovereign state, but in the West Bank many Palestinians say recognition without change on the ground means little.Want more comprehensive analysis of the most important news of the day, plus a little fun?

France is due to be the latest country to recognise the state of Palestine. But could it spark a backlash from Israel? Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has said recognition gives "a huge reward to terrorism".We hear from a member of France's national assembly, and from both Israelis and Palestinians. Also on the programme: the Egyptian president pardons the dual British-Egyptian activist Alaa Abd el-Fattah, after years in prison; and the literature professor who stumbled across lost stories from one of the most important writers of the twentieth century - Virginia Woolf.(Photo:The Grabels mayor's house flies the Palestinian flag next to the French and European Union flags, in Grabels, Southern France on 22 September 2025.

President Macron of France has formally recognised a Palestinian state. He made the announcement at a UN summit aimed at rallying support for a two-state solution to the Middle East conflict. He began his speech by calling for the release of Israeli hostages and an end to the war in Gaza.Also in the programme: Egypt's president has pardoned the jailed activist Alaa Abdel Fattah, who played a key role in the Arab Spring uprising of 2011; and South Korea's president tells the BBC of his hopes that North Korea will pause it nuclear weapon programme.(Photo credit: EPA)
Britain is expected to take the unprecedented step of recognising a Palestinian state today. The move will be a major shift in foreign policy for the UK which has, for decades, insisted that recognition should only happen as part of a peace deal with Israel. Also: the US Pentagon fuels fears about press freedom with new restrictions on journalists, Russia reboots the Soviet-era Intervision song contest, Prince Andrew's former wife explains her apologetic email to Jeffrey Epstein, and accusations of sportswashing in Rwanda.

Tommy & Ben sift through the week's flurry of meetings on Ukraine, including Putin and Trump's Alaska summit and Zelensky's White House visit. They discuss how territory and security guarantees factor into negotiations, what Putin means by the “root causes” of the war, and how Russia won the optics game. They also talk about why a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel isn't likely, massive anti-war protests in Israel, the Free Press's ghoulish “reporting” on starving Gazan children, Laura Loomer's malicious influence on medical visas for injured Palestinian kids, and the imprisonment of a 16-year-old Palestinian-American boy in Israel. Also covered: a rightward shift in Bolivia, Trump's mobilization against cartels, and we say a fond farewell to State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce. Then, Ben speaks with Representative Ro Khanna about his letter supporting the recognition of a Palestinian State and how to think about the future of Democratic Foreign Policy.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

The Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has said Canada plans to recognise a Palestinian state in September, becoming the third G7 nation to make such an announcement in recent days. Mr Carney said such a move would depend on democratic reforms, including the Palestinian Authority holding elections next year without Hamas. His remarks come a day after the UK announced it would recognise a Palestinian state in September unless Israel agreed to a ceasefire and other conditions and a week after France made a similar announcement. Israel has condemned the moves, calling them a reward for terrorism. The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.

Britain's prime minister, Keir Starmer, says he'll recognise Palestinian statehood, unless Israel takes measures to end, what he called the appalling situation in Gaza. The dramatic shift in policy comes a week after a similar announcement by France. The British leader gave Israel until the UN general assembly in September to meet conditions, including taking steps towards a ceasefire. Israel's foreign ministry has condemned Britain's move - saying it constitutes an award for Hamas and harms efforts to achieve a ceasefire in Gaza.
