  Terry.

  This is FRESH air.

• 00:01

  I'm Terry Gross.

  The show you're about to hear isn't the one we'd planned for today, so let me take a moment to explain.

• 00:09

  We intended to broadcast the interview I recorded yesterday about the recruiting crisis in the military

• 00:15

  and how Trump blamed it on the military's DEI programs,

• 00:18

  which is the subject of Dexter Filkins latest article in the New Yorker.

• 00:23

  In that interview with Filkins,

• 00:24

  we also talked about how the Middle east was being reshaped by the Israel Hamas war

• 00:29

  and the overthrow of Syria's dictator,

• 00:32

  Bashar al Assad.

• 00:33

  But last night, at a joint press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu,

• 00:39

  Trump proposed a shocking way he'd like to reshape the region.

• 00:43

  His idea is for all the Palestinians to leave Gaza,

• 00:48

  get Jordan and Egypt to take them in while the US Takes ownership of Gaza and rebuilds it.

• 00:54

  He didn't rule out sending US Troops into Gaza.

• 00:57

  We brought back Filkins this morning to talk about Trump's proposal.

• 01:01

  In the second half of today's show,

• 01:03

  we'll hear the interview we recorded yesterday morning about the shortage of recruits in the US Military

• 01:09

  and how that's leaving us vulnerable.
