Prime Minister Netanyahu is in Washington for a previously unscheduled meeting with President Trump. Yesterday, Netanyahu met with US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer at the Blair House. Netanyahu’s advisers said they were optimistic about the prospect of either canceling the tariffs on Israel entirely or reducing them to a degree that would avert meaningful damage to the Israeli economy. The prime minister and the president are also expected to discuss Iran and the negotiations with Hamas over a ceasefire and hostage release deal, which have failed to bear fruit so far.

With less than  three months to go before the 2024 election, thousands will gather in Chicago this week for the Democratic National Convention.  This year will look slightly different from others, as the Democratic Party has already officially nominated Vice-President Kamala Harris in a virtual roll call after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race. The most important night of the convention is Thursday, when Vice-President Harris will take the stage. She will formally accept the presidential nomination and give her speech on the final night of the convention dedicated "For the Future." Ahead of the convention KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with Kan analyst Shmuel Rosner. (Photo:Reuters)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has  responded publicly  to  personal criticism from US President Joe Biden  saying in an interview that the US president was “wrong” when asserting that he is “hurting Israel more than helping Israel” with his handling of the war against Hamas. Despite the fact that President Biden defined it as a red line, Prime Minister Netanyahu also reiterated his stance that the IDF would operate in Rafah. KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with Kan analyst Shmuel Rosner, who is also a Fellow at the JPPI , the Jewish People Policy Institute, and asked him how he explains the very public differences of opinion between PM Netanyahu and President Biden at this juncture.

Ben Caspit speaks this week with Shmuel Rosner, the political editor of the Jewish Journal and a long-time contributor to the New York Times. Rosner says that the recent meeting in New York of Prime Minister Naftali Bennett with leaders of the American Jewish community was successful, first and foremost because they were happy to meet an Israeli prime minister who isn't Benjamin Netanyahu. Referring to the strained relations that prevailed between Netanyahu and parts of the American Jewish community, Rosner says that “the leaders of the American Jewry are hoping that a fresh start [with Bennett] means getting rid of the illness that disrupted Israel-diaspora relations in the last decade.” Rosner adds that “Bennett's message of reconciliation, his message concerning state and religious affairs in Israel, his message concerning a more pluralistic type of government, a more pluralistic type of Israeli society, all these are messages that are fairly easy to communicate to an American crowd, and the Jewish leaders indeed welcomed these messages.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
