Please take 5 minutes to fill out Ark Media’s LISTENER SURVEY

___________________________________

Prime Minister Netanyahu’s meeting with President Trump ended without any clear declaration about simmering tensions with Iran, so Ark Media contributor Nadav Eyal joins Dan to try to read between the lines. What did Netanyahu hope to achieve? Does anyone know Trump’s plan? Is an attack on Iran still on the table and did Netanyahu move the needle? Could the talks with Iran be just a head fake?

In this episode:

- What Netanyahu asked for in Washington

- Why Israeli officials think the Iran talks may be “dead on arrival”

- U.S. military buildup and strike contingencies

- Why Trump’s Iran policy is not about Israel — and never has been

- The China factor: oil, energy, and Cold War II

- Will Israel participate in a strike?

- The Board of Peace and a potential Marshall Plan for Gaza

- Why Hamas will only disarm under credible threat
