Studies at Tel Aviv University, a former senior official with the Mossad, and a former IDF intelligence officer.
Views and positions expressed here are those of the writer, and do not necessarily represent APN's views and policy

This week, Alpher discusses whether with Ari Harow, a former Netanyahu aide who will implicate him in
corruption allegations, the clock is finally ticking on Netanyahu's premiership; Mahmoud Abbas's health and
political future; where the Taylor Force act comes into play; and how Netanyahu and Abbas exiting office would
affect the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the prospects for peace initiatives.
