Netanyahu’s Gambit Succeeds

Netanyahu’s video message that called out the U.S. on withholding arms from Israel succeeded—first the administration denied the facts, but then it opened the bureaucratic bottlenecks (see Mike’s piece about this below). Few commentators, however, took note of the fact that there was a warning in that video—one which was later enhanced in Netanyahu’s two major public statements this week. The war as the prime minister is now defining it, is a seven-front war with Iran. With a speech before a joint session of the two houses of Congress scheduled for July 24, the administration must be worried that its Iran appeasement policy is in danger of being exposed. And all that, on the backdrop of the West’s inability to fight wokeness, its autoimmune cultural disease. Mike and Gadi discuss the connection.
