Last October, it seemed that at long last Iraq was on the verge of having a somewhat stable multi-confessional government, which would take care of the country’s domestic problems free of manipulation efforts neighboring Iran.

This was good news to the Biden administration, because it showed that even after the end of America’s military involvement - or because of it - a more democratic Iraq able to resist Iranian domination could emerge. But these expectations were soon shattered, when personal ambitions of politicians with vested interests in a status quo overshadowed by Iranian-backed militias stifled the move towards majority rule.

Now, there is no effective administration in Baghdad, Washington has a hands-off policy and ‘satisfied smiles’ are seen only in Tehran.

Panel:

- Jonathan Hessen, Host.

- Amir Oren, Editor at Large, Host of Watchmen Talk and Powers in Play.

- Brig. Gen. (Res.) Mark Kimmitt, Former Assistant Secretary of State for Political-Military Affairs.

As soon as Benjamin Netanyahu vacated the Prime Minister’s office 14 months ago, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan moved to unfreeze his nation’s relations with Israel.

When then-Foreign Minister Yair Lapid failed to respond to Ankara’s advance, Erdogan outflanked him and found a warm welcome in Jerusalem’s non-executive presidency, eventually bringing around Lapid and the Alternate Prime Minister Naftali Bennett.

Now another step up the ladder was marked, with Erdogan and Lapid announcing the return of the Ambassadors to the respective capitals, after a dozen year hiatus.

Is it symbolic or substantial, and what’s ahead for the Turkish-Israeli relationship?

Panel:

- Jonathan Hessen, Host.

- Amir Oren, Editor at Large, Host of Watchmen Talk and Powers in Play.

Please join us for discussion on the latest developments concerning negotiations by world powers to finalize a new nuclear agreement with Iran.

Other topics include the maritime dispute and a potential escalation of hostilities between Israel and Lebanon over natural gas reservoirs, Jerusalem’s normalization of diplomatic relations with Ankara and the recent regional visit by US President Joe Biden.

Co-Hosts:

1. Amb. Danny Ayalon, Israel's Former Ambassador to the United States and Deputy Foreign Minister & Lecturer at NYU.

2. Col. (Res.) Dr. Eran Lerman, Israel’s Former Deputy National Security Adviser, Vice President of the Jerusalem Institute for Strategy and Security and Lecturer at Shalem College in Jerusalem.

Just like the status of “threshold nuclear weapon state,” to which Iran evidently aspires before the final dash towards the weapon itself, there is apparently a new phenomenon in global diplomacy - a threshold nuclear agreement.

With the essentially revoked JCPOA ever closer to a revival but not across the finish line, Iran is surely but slowly advances towards a worrisome capability in several dimensions. This is of course a bargaining tactic, but as time goes by it has practical consequences.

Panel:

- Jonathan Hessen, Host.

- Amir Oren, Editor at Large, Host of Watchmen Talk and Powers in Play.

- Dr. Olli Heinonen, Former International Atomic Energy Agency Deputy Director General and a Distinguished Fellow, Stimson Center, Washington, D.C.

- Mr. Jason Brodsky, Policy Director at United Against Nuclear Iran..

Israel’s two Palestinian fronts - at its center in Jerusalem and the West Bank, and in the southwest with Gaza - have been relatively quiet over the last two weeks, save for the occasional terror attack or incident.

Danger seems to lurk in the north - including in Syria, where Iran proactively seeks to entrench militarily, and Lebanon where the Iranian-proxy Hezbollah is determined to claim its position as the country’s arbiter. Which of the two are more severe – and are we to expect a possible conflict in the near to medium future?

Panel:

- Jonathan Hessen, Host.

- Amir Oren, Editor at Large, Host of Watchmen Talk and Powers in Play.

- Maj. Gen. (Res.) Gershon Hacohen, IDF Army Corps Commander.

- Dr. Nir Boms, Research Fellow, Moshe Dayan Center at Tel Aviv University.

Please join host Amir Oren for the first of a two-part interview with Brig. Gen. (Ret.) Dr. Ephraim Lapid, who has spent decades on several sides of the quest for defense information.

His early career brought him up the ranks of the IDF Intelligence Corps on collection and production assignments. Lapid was appointed to senior positions in the Israel National Sigint Unit 8200, and later the commander of the Open Source Unit.

After promotion to Brigadier General, he served as the Israel Defense Spokesman for some five tense years on the Lebanese, Syrian and Palestinian fronts. Our guest later ran the semi-civilian IDF Radio, earned his PhD and served in several public and academic positions after retiring from the military.

Dr. Lapid is an authority on all branches of the Israel Intelligence Community - AMAN, Mossad, the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet, often called by its Hebrew acronym “Shabak”) – as well as media coverage on the topic.

The haggling over the revival of the dormant JCPOA is over, at least according to the Biden administration.

For the last five months, a formula has been on the table at the Vienna Talks, and it is time for political decisions in Tehran and Washington. The Khomeini regime may wish to wait a little longer for the mid-term elections in the United States to make sure that Joe Biden is strong enough to carry through the deal in Congress - and that Donald Trump is not coming back in 2025 to withdraw from the deal once again; but if so, recent developments may appear to work in Biden’s favor.

Is this the calculus, as seen in American, Iranian and others’ eyes?

The recent focus on Russia’s war against Ukraine and China’s militant move against a perceived threat to the status quo in Taiwan reflect a reality envisioned several years ago in American defense planning - the world has reverted to a game of nations.

States and governments, not movements and organizations, operate and interact. This is why the recent targeted killing of al-Qaeda leader Ayman a-Zawahiri at his Kabul apartment seemed like a relic from a bygone area.

But is that really so, has the campaign against Islamic terror in its various manifestations become a footnote to major headlines, or is it just that public attention has shifted elsewhere, and the real war conducted by intelligence agencies and special forces goes on unrelentingly?

Panel:

- Jonathan Hessen, Host.

- Amir Oren, Editor at Large, Host of Watchmen Talk and Powers in Play.

- Col. (Res.) Miri Eisin, Co-Panelist of TV7 Powers in Play, Israeli Public Diplomacy, Security, Intelligence Expert at the ICT, the Reichman University.
