  • Israel's Legacy Media?
    May 2 2025
    The rogue Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar has now announced he will retire on June 16 – a date of his own choosing. Ignoring the cabinet's decision to dismiss him, he took the fight to the Supreme Court where an affidavit by Prime Minister Netanyahu exposed his transparent lies. But the legacy media prefers to turn a blind eye, demonstrating once again that it would make a hero out of any villain provided he turns out to be useful for the permanent Never-Bibi campaign. But this may well be one lie too far. Also on this episode: the Druze and the future of Syria.

  • The Qatar-Gate Hoax
    Apr 4 2025
    Ronen Bar, the insubordinate head of Shin Bet, steps up the investigation into alleged ties between members of the prime minister's staff and Qatar. Mike and Gadi think this is all nonsense, transparently designed to prevent the prime minister from removing Bar, as the cabinet unanimously voted to do. This does not mean the trumped-up charges will not become politically dangerous to Netanyahu's government. Also in this episode: is a direct clash between Israel and Turkey in Syria now inevitable?

    Gadi and Mike lay out the order of battle of the brewing crisis Israel is heading into in the wake of the cabinet's decision to terminate the tenure of the failed head of Shin Bet (Shabak), Ronnen Bar. The Supreme Court has already moved to freeze the cabinet's decision, but it is not clear whether the cabinet will obey the legally dubious order. Is a clash between the elected government and the administrative state now inevitable? Also on this episode: a momentous shift in American policy towards Iran.

  • Is Israel Wrong About Syria?
    Mar 13 2025
    There is much that is patently false about the rhetoric regarding the savagery in Syria. But it should not distract Israel from the real game: the geopolitical problem is the Iranian attempt to use the Alawite minority in order to regain a foothold in Syria. And one cannot begin to make sense of the chaos without taking account of this development. Also in this episode: former heads of Shin Bet use mafia-style threats to reveal secrets about the Netanyahu family if the prime minister dares to fire the sitting head of Shin Bet, Ronnen Bar.

  • The IDF and Shin Bet Cover-Up
    Mar 6 2025
    We're back! And there's a lot to talk about. Like the recently submitted conclusions of IDF and the Shin Bet inquiries of the October 7 disaster. To the extent that the press releases represent the actual content, both are shamelessly political, and both attempt to excuse, cover up and shift the blame – to Netanyahu, of course. The press is therefore eager to cooperate. Also on this episode: the Russian initiative to mediate negotiations over a new nuclear deal with Iran.
