Customer Reviews
Slanted left
It's a little bit too liberal and anti (the Democratic Israeli) government when allegedly representing what should be Israel policy/democracy.
My perspective from the US: Highly Slanted
These commentators ignore whole swaths of information and it detracts from what could be a helpful policy conversation. There are so many examples. Here are some but far from all:
1. Biden has encouraged Iran’s aggression of Hamas/Houthi/Hezbollah through endless billions in sanctions relief, and blowing up the Abraham accords
2. Biden’s State Dept has generated so many mixed messages including many warnings to Israel to not attack Gaza including ON Oct. 7 th
3. Pretense that Biden is running anything in this time period
4. Pretense there’s a clear distinction between Hamas fighters and Gaza citizens
Overall disappointed but helpful to understand just how much antipathy the PM faces not just from the US Democrats but the domestic media.
Great
Great listen and insightfully helpful
