Is this vision of a moderate Middle East together with Israel inspired by the United States?

Is this vision closer after last night or is it further away?

And the answer is it became closer last night and that was because of the Iranian

attack on Israel and that's their biggest miscalculation. It is 9.50 a.m. on Sunday April 14th in New York City. It is 450 p.m. in Tel Aviv where I am joined

by Nadeva Yel from Yidiut, who I welcome back to this

podcast for a special episode of this podcast. We normally don't push out an

episode this early on a Sunday but given events overnight we wanted to and we are

being joined by Nadev who not only was following events overnight but was up all night overnight so not only do I

appreciate you taking the time Nadav but I hope you're caffeinated for this

conversation I'm doing my best as we speak all right so. So, Nadev, there's a lot to cover here.

I want to just start with what do we know, just an update, what do we now know what happened overnight? What did Iran, what was the operation

that Iran conducted against Israel, how much was intercepted, and how much landed.

So Iran has launched its offensive about 12 hours ago against Israel.

It was combined of drones, some numbers put it at 186 suicide UAVs, directed at Israel,

cruise missiles and ballistic besides.

To cut a long story short, Israel, together with the US Air Force,

together with the Jordanian Air Force,

and in collaboration with the entire region with the Sunni moderate countries such as Saudi Arabia and others managed to take down a hundred percent of what was sent to Israel

or to be exact 99 percent of what was sent and was to hit military bases in Israel, mostly in the southern part of Israel,

mostly an airbase called Nivatim, that's in the Negave of Israel, that's an Israeli Air Force base, and that suffered a very minimal hit with minimal damage.

Generally speaking, the Israeli Air Force, together with the US Air Force and our

allies across the region, managed to down everything that Iran has sent. There are no casualties in Israel
