Ex-State Department Official Skeptical of Trump’s Gaza Deal

Live-streamed on January 16, 2025 Annelle Sheline, research fellow in the Middle East program at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, discusses the reporting around a recently brokered ceasefire deal in Israel & Gaza. https://x.com/AnnelleSheline https://quincyinst.org/author/annelle-sheline/ Dr. Annelle Sheline then joins, diving right into this week’s development of a predictably brief ceasefire in Gaza, including Netanyahu’s immediate refusal to abide by its requirement and the following escalation resulting in some 70 dead, unpacking why Bibi has once again sabotaged a deal, why Trump still wants peace for his inauguration, and why Netanyahu’s sights for the second Trump Administration are set on the West Bank. Next, Dr. Sheline and Emma shift to unpacking the future of the normalization attempt between Israel and Saudi Arabia – a process that the Biden Administration happily picked up off of Trump 1.0 – and the genuine danger of Trump extending the guarantee of uncritical military support that we provide Israel to Saudi Arabia as well, before wrapping up with a conversation on the particular role the Biden Administration’s support for Israel’s genocide in Gaza had on undermining support for Kamala Harris’ candidacy.
