Introduction

i wanted to catch up with akov cats editor in chief of the jerusalem post. Yakove's also a former adviser to prime minister bennett, when i first got to know him. How does increasing likelihood of an agreement between us and aran change israili calculations? Does it increase the possibility of an israeli military strike? And what about for energy? Markets.
