Consequences of the Attempt on Trump’s Life
Mike Doran and Gadi Taub discuss the aftermath of an assassination attempt
July 17, 2024
The failed assassination attempt on the former president will have vast consequences for the Middle East, some of which will be felt immediately. Israel, Mike argues, will have a freer hand to fight Hamas. A Trump victory however, with J.D. Vance as VP, will have far vaster effects on the region. Mike and Gadi discuss.
Meanwhile, the incitement against PM Netanyahu crosses the line into a virtual call for his assassination. Yet Israel’s law enforcement seems not to have learned from the American lesson. Plus: a rift between Netanyahu and Gallant re the Philadelphi Corridor looms behind the attempt to reach a hostage deal with Hamas.
