The Cracking Sounds You Hear in the Old US-Israel Relationship: The Biden Administration is working hard to maintain a fairly traditional front for US-Israel relations during the current crisis. Which is to say they are essentially following the playbook the Obama Administration would have followed (Trump's bromance with Bibi was an outlier). But times are changing, the views of Democrats are changing, the generational outlook is changing, and don't forget Bibi's bromance with Trump which did not help matters. We discuss what could trigger a change with former top Israeli diplomat and foreign policy specialist Alon Pinkas, the American Enterprise Institute's Kori Schake and Rosa Brooks of Georgetown Law School. Don't miss it.

President Jair Bolsonaro | The Ben Shapiro Show Sunday Special Ep. 132: Our guest, Jair Bolsonaro, is the current president of Brazil and is up for reelection at the end of October. President Bolsonaro has taken militantly conservative positions and targeted the country's corruption in allegedly controversial ways: killing government programs, opening up gun availability for law-abiding citizens, harsher treatment of criminals, and opening up more economic development in areas prized by environmentalists. He has been slandered as a facist, a dictator, and an authoritarian; but, his agenda of more assertive force to cut crime and promote traditional family values has made him hugely popular with Brazilians. In today's episode, we discuss if Brazil’s momentum away from big government could lead a way forward for other countries of South America. Plus, we discuss Bolsonaro’s experience dealing with the Trump administration compared with the Biden administration, his Covid policies, his by The Ben Shapiro Show

America's Message to the Middle East: We're Broken and Our Focus Needs to be on Taking Care of Business at Home: We've come to the end of another violent cycle between Israelis and Palestinians. Generally, the Biden Administration has gotten good grades for a policy that balanced active, behind the scenes efforts to bring the violence to a quick close with a desire not to get side-tracked from their main agenda items here at home. Where do we go from here? What did the crisis tell us is now different between Israelis and Palestinians? About American attitudes toward both sides? We discuss with well-known Middle East experts and commentators Rula Jebreal and Aaron David Miller and Kori Schake of the American Enterprise Institute plus Rosa Brooks of Georgetown Law School. Also: Thoughts on how the US and the world should react to the shocking seizure of a journalist from a transiting Ryan Air jet by Belarus. Don't miss it.Support this show <a targe by Deep State Radio
