The Fox News Rundown

The Growing Fear Of A Widening War In The Middle East

33 min • 31 oktober 2023

Secretary of State Antony Blinken is set to meet with Saudi Arabia's foreign minister to address growing concerns that the brutal conflict in Israel could spread across the Middle East. The U.S. has been prioritizing efforts to ensure Iran stands down — carrying out two 'self-defense' air strikes in response to several attacks on U.S. bases and personnel carried out by Iran-backed militia groups in recent weeks. On the Rundown, former U.S. National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley shares his response to how the Biden administration is working to avoid escalation in Israel, Hamas' ability to launch a surprise attack without intelligence agencies' knowledge, and his disappointment regarding the 'unacceptable' antisemitic movements that have sparked across the globe following the crisis in Israel, including here in the U.S.


Last Wednesday, 40-year-old Robert Card shot and killed 18 people in Lewiston, Maine. A few months earlier, he had allegedly made threats to an army base and spent two weeks in an inpatient facility. The tragedy has sparked a conversation about whether or not the shooting could have been prevented. Dozens of states across the country have red flag laws that prevent individuals who show signs of being a threat to themselves or others from owning a firearm. Maine has a similar law, but law enforcement must be notified of the threat before putting the individual in protective custody. Former FBI investigator and international security expert Bill Daly joins the podcast to break down the differences between the two laws and discuss what may have slipped through the cracks.
