The October 7th War in Gaza is the longest war in Israel’s history.

  • But how to grasp the nettle that is Hezbollah? 
  • What will “the day after” really look like in Gaza?: are the oil rich gulf states the answer to a more moderate Palestinian state? 
  • How soft have the West been on Iran? Is dethroning the theocracy in Tehran the key to an Islamic reformation? 
  • Is Britain’s foreign policy reset really pondering between Qatar and Saudi? And is it a Hobsons choice anyway? 
  • And as President Trump dodges an assassin's bullet, we roll-call the achievements of his first administration, from the Abraham Accords to the Jerusalem embassy and ask what else can be achieved in a second term? 


Retired Major Andrew Fox is a Research Fellow at The Henry Jackson Society. He served in the Army for sixteen years, with three tours to Afghanistan, one of them with US Army Special Forces. 

He was in the Parachute Regiment and the Special Forces Support Group. 

There were also tours in Bosnia, the Middle East, and Northern Ireland. He retired in 2021.

Andrew then leveraged his huge experience into academia, as a senior lecturer in the War Studies and Behavioural Science at the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst.

He holds degrees in Law & Politics, Modern War Studies, and Psychology. 

Let’s have a word on David Lammy, British Foreign Secretary who once dubbed President Trump, "a neo-Nazi-sympathizing sociopath, a profound threat to the international order that’s been the foundation of Western progress for so long!”.

He marched with Sadiq Khan in protest at his UK visit.

Is that the same President Trump who dodged death by millimetres, where aggressive opposition rhetoric is seen as the trigger to political violence? 

Is it the same President Trump, who produced the biggest diplomatic breakthrough in the Middle East? 

Striking a decisive blow IN FAVOUR of western progress in a troubled region? 

This is Major (Ret.) Andrew Fox.
