Biden Administration Making all the Wrong Moves

The Land of Israel · Israel Uncensored: Biden Administration Making all the Wrong Moves

On this week’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh discusses all the wrong moves made by the US Biden Administration in regard to Israel and the Middle East, while world Jewry was busy celebrating Passover. From launching indirect talks with Iran, to once again labeling Israel as an “occupier” in Judea and Samaria, from refunding the Palestinian Authority, to lifting sanctions on the ICC prosecutor, Josh says that on all of these issues, the administration is doing what it can to undo the accomplishments of the Trump administration and ultimately harm Israel’s interests.

Can We Achieve Full Sovereignty and Reject a PA State?

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh gives his take on the Trump Administration’s “Deal of the Century.” He asks, can Israel under the terms of the proposal annex communities in Judea and Samaria while rejecting a potential PA state in Israel’s heartland, which could become an existential threat? But first on the show, an interview with Yehuda HaKohen, one of the leaders of the “Vision” slate in the current World Zionist Congress Elections. HaKohen shares his party’s outlook under the slogan “Empowering the Next Generation” of Jews.

Gearing up for Trump’s “Deal of the Century”

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, an exclusive interview with Ambassador Yoram Ettinger, Israel’s Former Minister for Congressional Affairs in Washington and expert on US/Israel relations. Ettinger is concerned that the authors of the Trump plan might have ignored what he says is the violent nature of the Middle East, particularly in regard to the stability of Israel’s Eastern border, when putting together the proposal (based on expected details of the plan). At the same time while Ettinger praises the unique current US/Israel relationship under the Trump administration, he says that we don’t know what the future will look like come January 21, 2021, if a new US president is sworn into office.

EXCLUSIVE: Interview with Jason Greenblatt – Assistant to President Trump

On a very special edition of Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, an exclusive interview with Jason Greenblatt, Assistant to the President and Special Representative for International Negotiations.

He stresses that under any deal, the US would never jeopardize the security of the State of Israel and her residents. Don’t miss this important interview in which Greenblatt is adamant that the only true way to know what the Trump Administration is trying to accomplish in the Middle East, is to hear it from those individuals who are part of the team, and not from unreliable sources.
