As the United States gears up for its next presidential election, what’s at stake for the future of US-Israel relations?
Aviva Klompas is back with Dr. Michael Oren - historian, diplomat, and former Israeli Ambassador to the United States - to explore the potential impact of the upcoming election on America’s role in the Middle East and its partnership with Israel.
Together, we discuss how US foreign policy could shift depending on the election outcome, the evolving nature of bipartisan support for Israel, and how the rest of the Middle East is making calculations based on the U.S. election.
Key Topics Covered:
- How the US election will shape foreign policy in the Middle East.
- The future of bipartisan support for Israel.
- The role of the US as a global leader and what’s at stake in the Middle East.
- How the Israel-Hamas war and antisemitism factors into voter priorities.

In the inaugural episode of Boundless Insights, host Aviva Klompas sits down with Dr. Michael Oren to discuss the long-standing threat Iran poses to Israel and the broader Middle East.
When we recorded this episode, Israel had not yet responded to Iran’s recent barrage of nearly 200 ballistic missiles, leaving the region in a state of uncertainty. Just hours later, Israel launched a significant strike, reportedly sending 100 planes over 1,000 miles to strike Iranian military sites.
Despite the fast-moving developments, this conversation remains as relevant as ever. Dr. Oren shares his expert insights into the enduring tensions between Israel and Iran, as well as the West’s ongoing attempts to placate the Iranian regime.
The episode also delves into the leak of classified U.S. documents outlining Israel’s planned attack. Dr. Oren, with his extensive diplomatic and security experience, sheds light on the potential implications of this breach.
Key Topics:
- Iran’s shadowy role in the Middle East and its support of terrorist groups.
- The West’s reluctance to confront Iran directly, and how the 2015 Iran Deal set a -dangerous precedent for appeasement.
- Iran’s pursuit of nuclear weapons
- Iran’s efforts to build an Axis of Resistance alongside Russia and China
- The leak of top-secret U.S. military documents concerning Israel
