The situation has sparked n

Hezbollah attempting to re-engage despite being significantly degraded. Houthi drones targeting global energy infrastructure. A Lebanese state that failed for decades to assert sovereignty over a terrorist militia that hijacked the country.

The core question is whether democratic nations and moderate Arab states can finally dismantle the Iranian-funded

Dan Feferman joined the conversation to break down one of Israel's most persistent political realities: how Benjamin Netanyahu navigates the impossible.

The U.S. Treats Maduro Like a Cartel Boss, Not a President The United States did not arrest Nicolás Maduro. It did something more radical. By indicting Venezuela’s sitting president as a narco-terrorist, Washington quietly redrew the line between sovereignty and criminality.

In this video essay, Dan Feferman explains why this move matters far beyond Caracas, how it signals a return of hard geographic influen

Rafah, Hostages, and Political Pressure In this sharp interview on Al Arabiya English, Dan Feferman unpacks the mounting pressure on Israel — from stalled hostage negotiations to growing fractures inside Netanyahu’s coalition.

Western Pressure, Hamas Leverage, and the Gaza Dilemma In this urgent interview on Al Arabiya English, Dan Feferman warns that premature recognition of a Palestinian state would reward Hamas for October 7 and risk turning Gaza into another Hezbollah-style terror enclave.
