About this sermon
As President Donald Trump pushes for an end to the ongoing war in Gaza, the Israeli military has announced plans to call up tens of thousands of reservists for an expanded operation. Troops will operate in areas where Israel believes Hamas remains active, as the conflict enters its 22nd month. This comes as Hamas claims it has accepted a ceasefire proposal from Arab mediators. However, Israel has not yet responded, maintaining its position that it remains committed to defeating the terror group. Meanwhile, Pope Leo has called on the faithful around the world to observe August 22 as a day of prayer for peace and justice. Former Assistant Secretary of State for Political-Military Affairs in the George W. Bush administration, Army General Mark Kimmitt, joins to share more. He discusses what Israel is trying to achieve with this new operation and whether it is preparing for a prolonged campaign. He also weighs in on what tools the U.S. has left to influence Israel’s military decisions. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
