Hamas stays in power? What Israel may be trading away

WATCH: “True East” with Doron Spielman

IDF Spokesperson (Res.) Doron Spielman welcomes returning guest Amiad Cohen, CEO of the Israel Liberty Center, to break down the truth behind the fragile Gaza ceasefire, U.S. President Donald Trump’s stunning statement blaming “rogue Hamas elements” and the diplomatic chess game that’s now shaping the Middle East.

From the intelligence leading to Israel’s retaliatory strikes to the secret negotiations in Egypt and the question of whether Hamas will remain in power, Cohen offers a rare insider’s analysis of Israel’s grand strategy; Trump’s new world order; and what it will take for Israel to regain true independence—militarily, economically and spiritually.

Doron Spielman is the New York Times bestselling author of When the Stones Speak: The Remarkable Discovery of the City of David and What Israel’s Enemies Don’t Want You to Know, published by Hachette Book Group in May 2025. Doron is a Major in the Israel Defense Forces Reserves, where he serves as an international military spokesman, providing frontline analysis to global audiences. He has conducted hundreds of interviews with major international networks, including CNN, FOX News, NBC, ABC, BBC, and Sky News, most recently during the Swords of Iron War. He is the founder and CEO of Spielman Dynamics, a strategic consulting firm specializing in military affairs, security strategy, and geopolitical analysis. For over two decades, Doron has played a pivotal role in transforming the City of David from an overlooked hilltop into one of the most significant archaeological and historical sites in the world. As Vice President of the City of David Foundation, he worked to uncover and preserve groundbreaking discoveries that illuminate the deep historical connection between the Jewish people and Jerusalem. Doron is a Senior Fellow at the Herut Center in Jerusalem, a graduate of the Churchill Institute for National Security, and a graduate of the University of Michigan. Born and educated in the United States, he moved to Israel in 2000. Doron hosts the show “True East” on JNS TV.
