Trump’s Ultimatum to Hamas: 48 Hours to Return the Bodies
JNS CEO Alex Traiman and correspondent Josh Hasten break down a rapidly shifting landscape in Israel and Gaza. President Trump issues a dramatic 48-hour ultimatum to Hamas to return the bodies of deceased hostages, while U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio reaffirms America’s support for Israel and demands Hamas disarm. Meanwhile, Vice President JD Vance’s controversial visit raises eyebrows with mixed messaging and missed protocol. Inside Gaza, Israel has effectively divided the Strip with a new buffer zone, igniting speculation about post-war governance and Hamas’s future. The hosts also unpack tensions surrounding a Knesset sovereignty bill, Smotrich’s fiery comments on Saudi normalization, and growing calls for ultra-Orthodox IDF conscription—all as the winter Knesset session kicks off and early elections loom. Don’t miss this in-depth analysis of the political, military, and diplomatic fault lines shaping Israel’s future.
