1)Israel Fighter Jets Strike Yemen: Responding to a Yemen-made SAMAD type drone strike on Tel Aviv, Israel F-15 and F-35 jets flew to Yemen and struck an oil refinery there. This was over 1,200 miles from Israel. How did they reach a target that far away?

2)Why Was US Embassy In Israel Moved To Jerusalem?: During Donald Trump's Presidency, he ordered the US Embassy in Israel moved to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv. This was done by Presidential Proclamation, despite being in violation of international law. Did his action undermine the rule of law?

3)Israel President Netanyahu Visits Washington DC: This week, Israel's president Netanyahu is invited to speak at a Joint Session of Congress on Wednesday. The day after, he is scheduled to meet Pres. Joe Biden to discuss the conflict in Gaza and measures to limit further expansion of conflict in the Middle East. What message do you think he will bring?

4)The International Court of Justice Issues Ruling on Israel: The ICJ just issued an opinion declaring that Israel has been engaged in illegal settlement and annexation of Palestine territory, and ordered it to immediately stop such illegal action and return the territory to Palestinians. They claim this order is not subject to 'negotiation of lands' but just complete withdrawal from illegally occupied territory. What do you think?
