Netanyahu's political future
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's party announces his candidacy for the upcoming polls
@ShreyaOpines speaks to Alex Traiman (@traiman), CEO at JNS, for more details
Since the ‘ceasefire,’ Iran attacked the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Kuwait over a dozen times.
They attacked US ships dozens of times.
They attacked Israel twice.
Iran demands that Israel-Hezbollah must be part of greater US-Iran ceasefire.
Iran orders its proxy Hezbollah to fire on Israel, while leadership retreats north and consolidates in suburbs of Beirut.
Israel warns it will strike Beirut if Hezbollah continues firing at Israel.
Iran warns it will attack Israel if Israel strikes Beirut.
Israel strikes Beirut and Iran fires 10 ballistic missiles at Israel.
(This week Iran also fired drones and missiles at Bahrain and Kuwait. The Kuwait airport suffered major damage.)
Trump tells Fox and Axios that he will tell Netanyahu not to retaliate against Iran, as he believes a negotiated settlement is imminent.
After taking a pummeling from Israel and the US during Operation Epic Fury, Iran is showing it can still wield significant power since Trump declared a ceasefire.
Since October 7, Netanyahu has played 4D chess across multiple battlefronts and through successive US administrations.
The ball now is in Netanyahu’s court. The decisions he takes tonight—like so many other fateful decisions in this war—could shape the future of Israel and the Middle East, as well as US-Israel relations for decades to come.
Mark gets it right here. This is journalistic malpractice. This is not a singular leak, but an extended campaign of leaks since the beginning of the war designed to delegitimize Netanyahu, and to instigate rifts first between Netanyahu and Biden, and now between Netanyahu and Trump.
Barak Ravid has reported dozens and dozens of leaks since 10/7 from anonymous “senior sources.” These reports have almost never been corroborated by anyone willing to put their name behind it.
And despite the track record, even some of Israel’s strongest supporters hang on every one of these dangerous reports.
Fortunately, President Trump and PM Netanyahu have refused to give into the noise.
MORE RE YESTERDAY'S LEAK ABOUT THE PHONE CALL BETWEEN POTUS AND BIBII
Barack Ravid at Axios should be fired. Reason: his story was largely fabricated by those leaking anonymously leaking to him. The media need to take seriously the accuracy of what they report and these media companies need to clean up their messes. Axios should issue an immediate correction and apology, and the DOJ/FBI should open a criminal investigation today. A criminal investigation is warranted because of the nature of the leak and the purpose, which was to damage relations between our country and Israel, give aid and support to the enemy, and influence the course of the war/negotiations in a way that is harmful to our country.
I have already commented on the actual substance of the call: Israel must be free to destroy Hezbollah. Hezbollah continues to rain thousands of missiles and drones against Israel, at the direction of its Iranian regime masters. Israel is a sovereign nation that must and will protect its people. Let's recall that Hezbollah has killed hundreds of Americans, including Marines, over the years. They are doing us a favor as well by taking on Hezbollah, which we've refused to do for decades.
Moreover, Iran must not be able to dictate terms of any agreement, including its demand to protect Hezbollah should any deal be struck (and, obviously, I've made my opposition to any deal known -- the regime needs to be eliminated if we, in our country, as well as the rest of the world, are to be finally free of the Islamist nuclear and terror threat -- see my monologue last Sunday on Fox).
Hey Mamdani, sorry I won’t see you today! 😂😂
You know no decent person believes you? Last I checked this parade is on 5th Avenue in NEW YORK CITY today NOT Tel Aviv. Oh and Bibi isn’t here. So what’s the real excuse? Lemme guess? You placate the stupid Jews in New York to get votes but despise us and Israel down deep. I got it! Didn’t I! Couple that with your disdain for America🇺🇸 and capitalism and you end up with the crappy @NYCMayor you are! We are strong! We are united! We don’t need you!
Just 48 hours ago, all signs pointed to renewed strikes on Iran. Now suddenly there’s talk of a deal.
But this isn’t the JCPOA. Six weeks of war changed everything.

Inside tense Trump-Netanyahu call

The Iran War: Where Things Stand & What Comes Next with Alex Traiman, CEO/ Jlem Bureau Chief, JNS
https://t.co/G18nT6A4zm
Last night, AJA Zoom Speaker Series Presented: The Iran War - Where Things Stand And What Comes Next with Alex Traiman.
A clear look at the current battlefield, regional fallout, and the fragile choices between escalation and uneasy restraint.
Alex Traiman is the CEO/ Jerusalem Bureau Chief of the Jewish News Syndicate (JNS).
@traiman
I fought hard against Bennet/Lapid's handover of sovereign territory to Hezbollah - @KoheletForum went to court in vain attempt to enforce constitutional provisions against ceding territory without a referendum, or even a Knesset vote. What's worst is neither have admitted they made a mistake.
The Ch 14 poll by @filbers shows a night/day result, with @netanyahu coalition gaining a strong 66-seat majority, & Bibi scoring major double digit leads on suitability to be Prime Minister. The key is that Filber has a history of getting it right. Others are wishful thinking.
TODAY: Two regional officials said that the United States and Iran have signaled they will hold a new round of ceasefire talks in Islamabad as a fragile two-week truce was due to expire. @livenowfox@traiman
The narrative around the Iran campaign shifted dramatically in the days following the failed Islamabad talks, with headlines that over the weekend declared Trump in peril and Iran holding the upper hand, giving way by midweek. Alex @Traiman, CEO and Jerusalem bureau chief for @JNS_org, joined @DanProft to assess where things stand and what finishing the job actually requires.
@trbllnd@sidrosenberg19 Because reporters from CNN, NBC, ABC, i24, Times of Israel, JNS and others were in the room right in front of the Prime Minister. And I was one of them.
Let’s stop the bullshit and go right to the source of the anger. The reason why @TuckerCarlson, @mtgreenee, Jihad Boy @NYCMayor@ZohranKMamdani and many others are upset about @realDonaldTrump saving the WORLD is because @netanyahu (Israel) is our PARTNER in this noble and unavoidable mission. It’s time for these people to just admit to their blatant antisemitism and stop accusing the United States of lying. THEY are lying! If you are not celebrating this effort today you are an antisemite and/or a TRAITOR! Neither is a good look! God Bless @realDonaldTrump. God Bless America. God Bless Israel. And God Bless the innocent people of Iran who NOW live in HOPE! 🇺🇸❤️🇮🇱
