Yesterday, the Middle East quietly crossed a red line: President Trump greenlit F-35 stealth jets for Saudi Arabia and pushed a UN-backed “stabilization force” into Gaza. Both are moves that could shatter Israel’s long-guarded qualitative military edge overnight. In this conversation, Lt. Col. (res.) Jonathan Conricus, one of Israel’s most respected strategic minds, breaks down how Saudi F-35s could affect a future strike on Iran, why Turkey’s ambitions may be even more dangerous and why the new Gaza plan might drag Israel back into war if Hamas isn’t truly disarmed.

Gazaland vs. Gaza Riviera: who writes the next chapter? On this week’s "True East," IDF Spokesperson (Res.) Doron Spielman warns that Hamas is scripting a propaganda theme park, “Gazaland”, to turn October 7’s perpetrators into victims as global media surge back into the Strip.

IDF Spokesperson (Res.) Doron Spielman takes us inside the dramatic reopening of the ancient pilgrimage road in the City of David — a discovery he says that speaks louder than any UN resolution. From the stone-carved proof of a 4,000-year Jewish connection to Jerusalem to the political theater at the United Nations, Doron argues that history, archaeology and faith underpin Israel’s claim to the land — and that these facts are being erased or ignored by many international actors.

Israel just did the unthinkable, striking Hamas leadership hiding in Qatar. What does this bold move mean for Israel's deterrence, U.S. foreign policy and the global war on terror?

In this episode, IDF Spokesperson (Res.) Doron Spielman unpacks Israel’s pinpoint operation in Doha, exposing Qatar’s double game: hosting a massive U.S. military base while funding and sheltering Hamas, Hezbollah and even past masterminds of 9/11.
