JNS Middle East correspondent Josh Hasten and JNS CEO and Jerusalem Bureau Chief Alex Traiman unpack this week’s headlines out of Israel, broadcasting from the JNS Media Hub in Jerusalem.First, the hosts cover Israel’s covert and overt operations in southern Syria, where the IDF is stepping in to protect the embattled Druze community under attack by Bedouin militias backed by Syria’s failed regime. The global media is blaming Israel, but what’s really happening on the ground? Then, we dive into a political earthquake: new revelations from a U.S. congressional report expose that the Biden-Harris administration may have funded anti-Netanyahu protests through American NGOs, an alleged effort to undermine Israel’s judicial reforms and democratic process.
