Peloni: Mike and Gadi discuss the duplicity surrounding Biden’s plan which was intended to trap Israel into a no win scenario, which of course is why Israel refused to accept it. As has been true since before the Otef was invaded by Hamas, Washington is still seeking a way to regime change Israel into accepting a future which the Israeli people are even more resolved to resist today than they were a year ago. They explain that the removal of Bibi from power is the focus of Washington’s every move in this war, including last week’s ruse Israeli plan. They also address the motivations behind the ruse which includes the Israeli capitulation to Hezbollah in the North which is dependent upon the Israeli capitulation in the South to Hamas. Among the consequences of Bibi’s refusal to acquiesce to the Biden ruse will be his ability to reframe the context of the conflict during the coming speech before Congress. Mike explains that it is an important opportunity for Bibi to speak directly to the American people and explain the reality that this war is actually between Iran and the US, even as Washington is trying to pretend that the war is only between Israel and Hamas.
