SUMMARY:As We Approach Phase Two of President Trump’s Plan\, What is in Store for Israel and the Middle East?
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe transcript will be available here \n  \nAs we approach phase two of President Trump’s Plan\, does Hamas have any plans to disarm\, which is one of the President’s conditions for proceeding further? Looking north\, will President Joseph Aoun\, as promised to dismantle the Hezbollah infrastructure? What is happening with Egypt’s commitments made in 1979 to dismantle its military force in the Sinai\, and why have they smuggled weapons into Gaza? Why is Jordan participated in the smuggling of Weapons into Judea and Samaria\, the West Bank? Is Ahmed al Sharaa capable of making an enduring peace with Israel? Where are we on our relationship with Saudi Arabia? \n  \nHere to discuss this\, and much more is David Wurmser. \n  \nAbout our Speaker: David Wurmser is a Senior Middle East Analyst for the Center for Security Policy\, and is a member of EMET’s Board of Advisors. He served as Middle East Adviser to former US Vice President Dick Cheney\, as special assistant to John R. Bolton at the State Department and as a research fellow on the Middle East at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI). He served in the U.S. Navy Reserve as an intelligence officer at the rank of Lieutenant Commander. He has written many widely acclaimed books and papers\, such as the 1996 report A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm\, a paper prepared for incoming Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. This advocated pre-emptive strikes against Iran and Syria\, the removal of Saddam Hussein from Iraq and the abandonment of traditional “land for peace” negotiations with Palestinians. \nIn 1999\, Wurmser wrote Tyranny’s Ally: America’s Failure to Defeat Saddam Hussein (published by AEI Press)\, which argued that President Clinton’s policies in Iraq were failing to contain the country. \nIn 2000\, Wurmser helped draft a document entitled “Ending Syria’s Occupation of Lebanon: The US Role?”\, which called for a confrontation with the regime in Damascus. The document said that Syria was developing “weapons of mass destruction”.

SUMMARY:On the Present and Future of Warfare from Gaza to Lebanon to Tehran
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe transcript will be available here.  \nAlthough many Americans\, surrounded by the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans\, Canda and Mexico\, have grown used to living in peaceful times\, the Middle East is vastly different than that\, where vengeful grievances from centuries prior are being played out in today’s battlefields. How\, from the point of view of a retired British Army office and research fellow at the Henry Jackson Society\, is Israel fairing with the wars on several of her fronts? How\, compared to other wars fought in densely packed urban settings\, is Israel doing in Gaza? Will Hamas enter Phase Two of President Trump’s negotiations. Is Hezbollah regrouping and rebuilding? How is Ahmed al -Sharaa handling his Druze\, Alawite\, Christian and Kurdish populations? Does he still have eyes of the Golan Heights and why have the Turkish armed forces been welcome into Syria? Why is Egypt building up in the Sinai\, and how soon will it be before Israel will have to re-attack Iran? \nAbout our Speaker: Andrew Fox served in the British Army from 2005 to 2021\, completing three tours in Afghanistan\, including one attached to the US Army Special Forces. He served in the Parachute Regiment and the Special Forces Support Group\, with additional tours in Bosnia\, the Middle East\, and Northern Ireland. \nAfter his active service\, he spent three years as a senior lecturer in the War Studies and Behavioural Science departments at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. Andrew specializes in defense\, the Middle East\, and disinformation. He holds degrees in Law & Politics\, Modern War Studies\, and Psychology. \nHis extensive experience has established him as a recognised authority in his field and he provides regular commentary on defence and foreign policy across the media including articles in the New York Post\, the Telegraph and Spiked. He has amassed a large following across his digital platforms\, including X (formerly Twitter) and Substack\, where he writes on disinformation\, defence and security as stories develop.

SUMMARY:Dalia Ziada and Her Struggle Against the Muslim Brotherhood
DESCRIPTION:The transcript will be available here \nOn October 7th\, 2023\,  Egyptian-born Dalia Ziada summoned up the courage to honestly and objectively discuss the atrocities that befell the Israeli people\, and supported Israel’s right to defend itself. Because of this\,  the attorney-general had summoned her to the notorious Supreme State Security Prosecution to investigate her for committing the crime of “high treason\, and for “threatening Egypt’s national interests.” Since coming to the United States\, she  endured countless personal attacks\, which led her to the belief that antisemitism and hate is “not just local; it is transnational.” \nCome hear the story of a courageous national hero\, what she has learned about Islamist networks in the West and how they operate\, and the price that she has personally had to pay for this.

DESCRIPTION:  \nThe transcript will be available here  \n  \nWhy must Israel maintain control of the Golan Heights\, which the US recognized as sovereign Israeli territory on March 25\, 2019?  What is the IDF doing inside of Syria\, and how is it protecting against further Hezbollah penetration into Lebanon? How is Hezbollah and the vastly metastasizing Shiite presence in Lebanon getting its funding for its armaments?  What is the “Al-Qard Al-Hassan” and how is it involved in Hezbollah’s operations in Israel’s north?
