Today on the Midday News Wrap, Israel's Knesset remains deadlocked after Tuesday’s election.   

A Whistle Blower in the Intelligence Community raises concerns, but the Justice Department tells Congress it can’t know what those concern are.

And, is a drone attack on a Saudi oil facility last Saturday the latest in a series of Iranian responses to the US campaign of sanctions and maximum pressure?

Tom's guests today are:

David Makovskyis the Ziegler distinguished fellow at the Washington Institute and director of the Project on Arab-Israel Relations.  His latest book is called Be Strong and Of Good Courage: How Israel’s Most Important Leaders Shaped It’s Destiny, which he wrote with Ambassador Dennis Ross.

Julian Borgeris the world affairs editor at The Guardian.

Both men join us from NPR studios in Washington.
