Yosef MizrachiHOST
Today in the Supreme Court you have one guy with the yarmulke as one of the most wicked ones among them.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
The biggest enemy, if somebody asks you, who is really the biggest enemy in the eyes of God, of the Jewish people in the world, I want you to know, it's not the Iranians, it's not the Hamas, it's not the Hezbollah, it's not Giuliani from Syria, it's not the European Nazis, it's not...
Yosef MizrachiHOST
Egypt, it's not any country you can think of, it's not them.
Yosef MizrachiHOST
The biggest enemies of the Jewish people, perhaps in the entire history, is the Israeli Supreme Court.
James JeffreyGUEST
We've got the Biden's mini war against the Houthis.
James JeffreyGUEST
Along the Red Sea, we have the Turks and al-Shara slash al-Jilani taking down Assad.
James JeffreyGUEST
And of course, first Gaza, then the Israelis go into...
James JeffreyGUEST
But that was all one conflict.
Conrad FranzHOST
Jordan said that the
Conrad FranzHOST
strikes were launched in coordination with Damascus, but the Syrian government, led by former al-Qaeda commander Ahmed al-Shara, issued a statement denying that it was notified of the attack ahead of time.
Conrad FranzHOST
In its statement on the strikes, the Jordanian military claimed that it targeted terrorist hideouts in response to the church shooting.
Conrad FranzHOST
The operation was conducted in retaliation for the martyrs of last Friday's Hamoud church attack in Karak.
Jonathan SchanzerGUEST
It will be interesting to see how the Jordanians continue to respond.
John BatchelorHOST
I want to recover what we know of Syria because we have expressed our doubts for some time, you especially, the idea that al-Shara, a self-appointed president, and former al-Qaeda cutthroats can all of a sudden turn themselves into Jeffersonian Democrats in the Middle East.
John BatchelorHOST
The last check I had on Syria was the invitation to Syria to send forces to support Saudi Arabia or perhaps to in some fashion stand up against the Houthi advance.
John BatchelorHOST
That was more in keeping with an idea earlier that had been rejected of Syria sending in some fashion a police force to contain Hezbollah in Lebanon.
John BatchelorHOST
Now this incident at the border suggests that once more we have to take into consideration that there's bad feelings all around between al-Qaeda and ISIS, and any moment it can turn into violence.
John BatchelorHOST
Is that something that we need to pursue more of, Jonathan? Because it's been some weeks since we had reason to voice doubts about al-Shara, although being positive about him is a mystery.
Jonathan SchanzerGUEST
Well, John, I mean, I think we need to acknowledge that this is still a man whose roots came from HTS, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, which was the rebranding of the group known as the Nusra Front, which is, of course... an offshoot of Al Qaeda.
Jonathan SchanzerGUEST
This is a man that did collaborate with the Islamic State for a time before disavowing it and then going through that rebranding exercise.
Trita ParsiGUEST
They're just doing it on a scale right now that is impossible to deny, including in Western conversations.
Mario NawfalHOST

Trita ParsiGUEST
out two points in this first of all, remember what the Israelis did immediately after Assad fell.
Trita ParsiGUEST

Rex JonesHOST
Between October 22nd and 23rd, the IDF units entered Al-Hurra in Kintera province and searched homes.

James M. DorseyHOST
In 1948, Jewish militants formed the first government of the newly created State of Israel, where Zionism's most radical elements constituted the country's parliamentary opposition.
James M. DorseyHOST
Fast forward to December 2024, when Islamist rebels toppled Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, who was succeeded by Ahmed al-Shara, a one-time al-Qaeda operative who today, like the leaders of Vietnam or Cambodia, is fetid by the international community.
James M. DorseyHOST
The bottom line is that a blanket rather than a case-by-case refusal to deal with militants closes the doors to negotiated understandings where feasible.
James M. DorseyHOST
Like with al-Qaeda, there may not be a basis for compromise with Israel's militant religious ultra-nationalists.
