Leighton Smith Podcast #306 - October 15th 2025 - Alon Roth and George Friedman

The US-brokered peace deal saw Hamas release the Israeli hostages on Monday – an event watched by both Israel’s CE Ambassador Alan Roth down in Wellington, and Leighton up in Auckland.  That evening, they joined up over Zoom to analyse the effects of what had taken place over the previous few days.  On Tuesday morning, Geopolitical Futures’ George Friedman approached the milestone with an historic and militaristic perspective.  The two complementary analyses are packed with knowledge and information and not to be missed.  And as always, we end the programme in the Mailroom with Mrs Producer.  File your comments and complaints at [email protected] Haven't listened to a podcast before?
