  • Iran’s Protest Massacre Continues...So Why Hasn’t Trump Moved Yet?

    Iran’s Protest Massacre Continues...So Why Hasn’t Trump Moved Yet?
    Jan 21 2026
    Is President Trump actually going to pull the trigger, or just keep issuing threats while Iranian protesters die? Hosts Mark Regev and Ruthie Blum dissect Trump’s “wipe them off the face of the earth” rhetoric, argue over whether it signals real intelligence and imminent action, and zoom out to the bigger strategic gamble: Trump’s “Board of Peace” for Gaza, Turkey and Qatar on the inside, and a Syria policy that Ruthie calls fantasy-land while minorities are being slaughtered. What you’ll learn is the core tension shaping the region right now: how deterrence works when words race ahead of action, why “surgical force” can succeed and what Israel’s leadership can (and can’t) do when its closest ally is also its most unpredictable variable.

  • Iran Uprising: Khamenei Is Cornered as Trump Sets the Stage of for a Crushing Blow

    Iran Uprising: Khamenei Is Cornered as Trump Sets the Stage of for a Crushing Blow
    Jan 15 2026
    Is Iran’s uprising a historic turning point, or the start of an even bloodier stalemate? In this episode, you’ll learn what actually makes authoritarian regimes crack (hint: it’s not street protests alone, it’s defections inside the guns-and-batons apparatus), how President Trump’s rhetoric (“write down their names,” “help is on its way,” tariffs, canceled talks) is being read as psychological warfare aimed at splintering regime enforcers, and why a U.S.-Israel strike, if it comes, could be calibrated to energize protesters rather than unite the public around the Ayatollahs. The hosts also clash over the nightmare scenario of a last-minute “deal” that leaves the regime alive, then widen the lens to the Abraham Accords, the hypocrisy of Western media and campus activists and the staggering domino effect of an Iran without proxies...ending with a blunt cliffhanger: they’re convinced something big is coming, and soon.

  • From Venezuela to Tehran: Why Israel Faces a Defining Moment

    From Venezuela to Tehran: Why Israel Faces a Defining Moment
    Jan 9 2026
    Washington just toppled Maduro, and that shockwave may be racing straight toward Tehran. In this episode of "Israel Undiplomatic", the hosts unpack how President Trump’s renewed willingness to use American power is reshaping the global chessboard: from Venezuela to Iran, from Hezbollah to Hamas and from uneasy Syria “peace talks” to the very real possibility of regime collapse in Tehran. With Iran shaken by protests, its terror proxies weakened and Israel quietly preparing for what comes next, the conversation exposes why this moment feels different, and why a single misstep could trigger war, regime change, or both. Nothing is settled, everything is volatile and the stakes for Israel have never been higher.

    6 Bold Predictions for 2026 That Will Reset the Middle East
    Dec 31 2025
    Could 2026 be the year that redefines the Middle East? In this episode, our hosts dive into the unthinkable: a potential Israeli-Syrian security pact, President Trump brokering backdoor deals and the collapse of Iran’s regime from within. But that’s just the beginning. From Hamas refusing to disarm to Saudi Arabia stalling normalization, the future is anything but certain. And as Lebanon simmers and PM Netanyahu prepares for a political comeback, one question hangs in the air: will the region break through or break down?

    Israel vs. Illusions: The Dangerous Gaps in U.S. Middle East Policy
    Dec 23 2025
    Behind the polite smiles and diplomatic clichés, something far more dangerous is unfolding. As Israel weighs its next move against Iran’s ballistic missile threat, serious cracks are emerging between Jerusalem and Washington. In this episode of "Israel Undiplomatic", Mark Regev and Ruthie Blum cut through the speculation to ask the questions no one else will: Is the U.S. truly aligned with Israel’s security needs or drifting toward strategic illusions? And what, really, might be brewing behind closed doors ahead of a possible Trump-Netanyahu meeting?

    Will Phase 2 Collapse Before It Begins?
    Dec 10 2025
    Israel is on edge again as three political shockwaves collide: Itamar Ben‑Gvir ignites global outrage by wearing a yellow noose pin in the Knesset debate over the death penalty for terrorists; Hamas kingpin Khaled Mashaal resurfaces in Istanbul with a chilling vow to eliminate Israel and reject any Trump‑brokered plan; and President Trump prepares to host Prime Minister Netanyahu at Mar‑a‑Lago to force momentum on “Phase 2” of his Gaza blueprint.
