Wild news from the Middle East today as Israel hit a building in Doha where senior Hamas leadership were gathered to reportedly discuss the latest American and Israeli proposal to end the war and bring the hostages home. We caught up with FDD Senior Fellow and State of Tel Aviv friend and regular, Lt. Col. (Res.) Jonathan Conricus to discuss what we know, what we don’t and what this might portend. Both Jonathan and I are on the road, so this episode has no visuals - other than at the very outset. It’s an old-fashioned audio only podcast - we thought it important to skip the bells and whistles and get the information out to our listeners ASAP.
