What is Netanyahu's next move?

What is Netanyahu's next move?

By Global

Last night - after Israel's Prime Minister addressed the nation - the troops went into Gaza.

It was a raid that paved the way for what Netanyahu promised would be the ground invasion to come.

But what is the end game here? And are any of Israel's allies prepared to try and stop them? We talk to the Economist's Defence Editor Shashank Joshi about how Israel is preparing for war and what the end game might be.

Also - has Keir Starmer done enough to reassure large Muslim communities - and others - he understands their pain over the loss of life in Gaza? What do they need to hear him say if a ground war begins?

And the US finally have a Speaker. And it's a guy that frankly, no one has ever heard of. Who is he?
