U.S. Drops Bounty on al-Julani

The United States government has dropped its $10 million terrorism bounty on new Syrian leader Abu Mohammad al-Julani, within days of his takeover of the country. On this week’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten is flabbergasted that the Biden Administration would make the move before al-Julani has shown whether or not he will continue his terrorist ways. While the dismantling of the Assad regime is a positive, there is a reason Israeli troops are stationed on the Syrian Golan – namely to thwart any attacks from Syria, should Al-Julani and friends decide to turn their attention towards the Jewish State.

Ettinger says that it’s a mistake to think that a US troop pullout from Syria will damage Israel’s security. In regard to US National Security Adviser John Bolton’s current trip to the region, Ettinger talks about how Bolton has relentlessly stood by the Jewish State for many years. He adds that instead of introducing the delayed US peace plan between Israel and the Arabs under the PA, the US should focus on the Iranian threat and other Middle East conflicts which are contributing towards instability in the region.
