Peace Deals, Power Plays, and the Doha Spin
In this week’s Passages Pulse, Sebastian and Josiah tackle two developments already reshaping the conversation about Israel in America: President Trump’s brand-new National Security Strategy and the wave of pro-Qatar messaging emerging from the Doha Forum.
What does the NSS really signal about the Middle East?
And why is Qatar working so hard to rebrand itself right now — with Tucker Carlson front and center?
We unpack:
🇺🇸 The biggest surprises in Trump’s National Security Strategy and what they could mean for Israel’s standing in U.S. policy
🌍 Why the Middle East is being reframed in America’s global priorities — and what comes next
🇶🇦 The Doha Forum as a PR power play, and the quiet influence battle happening behind the scenes
🎙️ What Tucker Carlson’s Qatar interview gets wrong (and why it matters for public opinion)
🙏 How Christians should respond when propaganda, policy, and peacemaking collide
If you’ve been trying to sort through shifting alliances and conflicting narratives, this episode connects the dots — clearly, honestly, and with a rooted Christian perspective.
