For Heaven's Sake

Israel in Ceasefire – Trump’s Dystopia

Feb 6, 2025
33:03

Voters were aghast, world leaders were outraged, and Netanyahu seemed jubilant, when President Trump recently doubled down on a plan that seems totally detached from reality:

a U.S. take-over, clean-out, and transformation of Gaza into the “Riviera of the Middle East.” Though the White House has since clarified that Palestinian relocation would only be temporary, the shockwaves it caused in the region, and the reaction of the Israeli public, are telling.

 

In this episode, Donniel Hartman and Yossi Klein Halevi talk messianism, morality, and this

strange new chapter of U.S. relations, as they assess Israeli attitudes towards the proposal and the precarious fate of the hostage deal.
