ISRAEL UNDIPLOMATIC with hosts Ruthie Blum and Mark Regev.

This episode rips open the chess match behind the current war in Iran and President Trump’s looming ultimatum. Senior contributing editor at JNS Ruthie Blum and former Israeli ambassador to the United Kingdom Mark Regev—both former advisers in the Prime Minister’s Office— explain how modern war and diplomacy actually collide in real time. As missiles fly and deadlines tick down, the discussion unpacks whether Trump’s 15-point plan is a genuine peace offer or a calculated setup for massive escalation, revealing how military pressure, internal regime cracks and global energy chokepoints like the Strait of Hormuz all intertwine.
