I mean, but the most obvious question just to start with, is the war on or

off? Define which war.

They're in parallel, approximately six, seven wars now surrounding and involved with Israel.

You can look at the Gaza war, the Lebanese war.

You can see the Yemen and the Bab al-Mandab Straits war.

You can see the Iranian war.

And then you can look a little broader with the communication war worldwide.

or

But

the political agenda is backed by a perspective of what's the future, what's the best way to gain peace? The left's assumptions about peace is give them what they want and appease them, and then we'll get peace.

The right-wing conservative perspective is, no, deter them, control strategic territory that will prevent them even trying to attack you again, and keep what we call peace out of strife.

The strategy differs dramatically in the policies that you actually practice today.

If you understand the map, E1 is east of Jerusalem.

The strategy of E1 is to prevent a Palestinian state by preventing one organized territory together with no barriers of Israeli territory in the middle.

That's the goal of E1.

But walk me through the steps of what it looks like for your solution to come

I asked him to explain what the struggle to shape Israeli identity was all about.

We came to solve the problem of the Jews.

There was a Jewish problem in the world, that the world hates Jews, and they have to go to a shelter.

So even before the chimneys of Auschwitz, they had the abstract chimneys of Auschwitz in the, uh, '20s and '30s, and they tried to save and create a shelter for the Jews.

The outcome of that is the shelter needs to be limited.

It needs to be very secular, because there's no, uh, meaning for this country aside of existing.

It's a very existential idea.

So the real debate is over who gets to make decisions.

Hezbollah has really intensively increased their attacks on Israel, and I wanna ask you, is the one word that describes this Iran? And can you under- explain to us what's happening here?

So no, um, Iran is not leading the battle on, uh, the field now in Lebanon.

Hizb- They're trying to help a little bit, but they're very complicated and hard for them to help them now.

Uh, they're trying to save their own regime.

Um, Lebanon is very complicated, and I disagree with the, uh, the premise.

The operation in Lebanon now is very, very successful in a strategic way and a tactical way.

The IDF took over southern Lebanon with almost zero resistance by Hezbollah.

Why? If, if, if we're s- if we're, if we're strangling them economically, then why are they interested in it? It would as- seem, it would seem to be as every day or week goes on, they're weaker.
