    Famine in Gaza
    2025/07/24
    Join Avi as he breaks down what is causing the worsening famine in Gaza. He covers why Israel is manufacturing this famine, and details the US' history of providing diplomatic cover for Israeli induced famines in Gaza. In light of Israel's recent attacks in defense of the Druze in Syria, he then discusses why Israel treats its Druze population so differently from its Palestinian minority.

  • Netanyahu's Map to a Ceasefire

    Netanyahu's Map to a Ceasefire
    2025/07/11
    Join Avi as he discusses the three ongoing tracks that Netanyahu is pursuing in order to reach a ceasefire. There are of course the official talks in Qatar, but also efforts to begin a legacy defining normalization process tied to a ceasefire, as well as efforts to cater any ceasefire proposal to the extreme right wing. Avi dives into all three of these tracks, analyzing the relationship between the success of these tracks and the achievability of a permanent ceasefire.

    Is a Gaza Ceasefire Imminent?
    2025/07/02
    Join Avi as he discusses the emerging political opportunity for a ceasefire in Gaza. He also discusses a Haaretz exposé that came out this week detailing the crimes committed by the IDF at humanitarian distribution sites, one of many factors pushing Israel towards a ceasefire. He then shifts to Iran, discussing what we know about the damage that's been done to its nuclear facilities, outlining the process of how nuclear weapons are made and which processes can no longer function.

    Join Avi as he discusses the roller-coaster of a week we just had. He analyzes the US deciding to join Israel in attacking Iran, Iran's deescalatory retaliation, and the current ceasefire.
