Call Me Back - with Dan Senor · Sneak Peek: Amit on why Netanyahu’s Party is shrinking while Israelis shift to the right, and more… · 1 Aug 2026 podcast

Second is the one who has the legal ability to pardon someone.

And third is the one who negotiate or try to negotiate, fail to negotiate between the two camps with regards to their judicial reform.

Now, I think the reason Herzog hasn't replied yet to Netanyahu's request to be pardoned is because he's waiting for after the election.

And he says as follows, if Netanyahu is defeated, so it's no longer a problem of the politician Netanyahu, the prime minister Netanyahu, it's a problem of the citizen Netanyahu.

So it's not my problem anymore.

It's a personal problem.

Second, if Netanyahu gets an outright majority, it means that he's going to end this trial one way or the other.

is going to replace the attorney general, etc.

But if both sides fall short of an outright majority, it necessarily means that I will be there.

So I will be able to tell Eisenkot, you want to be the prime minister, you want me to give you the opportunity to form a coalition, so please support me in pardoning Netanyahu after a year and a half.

Or, Mr. Netanyahu, you want me to give you to form the coalition, so please make concessions in the judicial reform, etc., etc.

Call Me Back - with Dan Senor · Iran War Part III?- with Nadav Eyal and Amit Segal · 27 Jul 2026 podcast

Both Netanyahu and Trump face decisive, crucial election campaigns in the autumn of 2026.

However, here they split because for Trump, it's crucial not to have war come October or November.

And for Netanyahu, it's crucial to have a war comes October or November because this is the only way to save his legacy after October 7th.

All Netanyahu could have hoped for is for Trump to sign the MOU and then to see that Iran actually interpreted it as a decisive victory, as an outright victory.

And that's why Trump will have to resume the war

So in statistics, it's called regression to the mean, which means that, you know, two months ago, people already were busy writing the obituaries for the Israel-US and the Trump-Netanyahu relationships.

The idea was that the US threw Israel under the bus and that not only the US is going to have a peace agreement with Iran, but

It is going to provide Turkey with F-35s and Saudi Arabia with a nuclear program and Qatar with a new contract.

And Israel is, it's not only that America first, but Israel is last.
