With war raging in the Middle East, we want to bring you as many trusted voices on the news as we can. One such voice is the Israeli journalist Amit Segal. Here’s Amit’s daily newsletter, It’s Noon in Israel, which we’re pleased to publish in The Free Press.
Last night, Donald Trump told CBS that the war is “very complete, pretty much.” According to the president, “We are far ahead of the original estimate we made.”
From the Israeli perspective, the early victories were impressive—but not that impressive. Israel still fears a repeat of the June war, when targets were left untouched after Trump’s patience for the campaign was exhausted. At the start of this war, he spoke of a “four to five week” timeline. Israel is hoping for something around that to exhaust its target bank—not the 11 days we’re currently at.
