Interesting developments are happening in the U.S. diplomacy. The Biden administration and the incoming Trump administration are working together toward a shared goal of a taking a step forward in the Middle East, and that is the latest ceasefire effort. The fact is that President-Elect Donald Trump has repeatedly warned that if that if the hostages captured from Israel by Hamas-led militants on October 7, 2023, and held in Gaza are not released by his inauguration, there would be “hell to pay.”
Baila Sebrow, producer and host of The Definitive Rap interviewed the show’s Israel correspondent Barry Shaw.
Barry is also Israel’s International Public Diplomacy Director at The
Israel Institute for Strategic Studies. He regularly contributes to
various media outlets Barry Shaw has been a staunch defender of Israel in the public diplomacy arena for decades and has initiated the creation of several pro-Israel grassroots groups. He has a keen following of tens of thousands of people globally, and is the author of ‘Israel Reclaiming the Narrative’ Fighting Hamas, BDS and Anti-Semitism’ and his most recent book, ‘BDS for IDIOTS,’ employs ridicule as new method of countering BDS activists and disclaiming their slander against Israel with facts and humor. As always Barry gives a full account of details not heard anywhere else. Mainstream media does not necessarily cover everything, and Barry always fascinates our viewers and listeners with facts not heard anywhere else.
Barry thoroughly explained the ceasefire agreement and gave a realistic view of what a deal of this nature would look like, and whether it is likely succeed. Whatever happens, Israel will remain standing, because Am Yisrael Chai!
