James and Al discuss the convention, Kamala’s CNN interview, and how she should approach the upcoming debate before welcoming WaPo’s David Ignatius. They game out the danger Israel faces from Iran and its proxies and the path to peace in Gaza, looking at the impact of Iran’s new president, Netanyahu’s need to hold together his governing coalition, and continued settler expansionism. Then, they explore the effects of Ukraine’s counter-invasion of Russia and our presidential election on the war in Europe and look ahead to the Republican Party’s prospects after Trump.
