Eve Harow is in Norway on a long awaited cruise to the fjords and some uber nature and water, water, water. On the way to Southampton port she stopped at Stonehenge to see the famous remains of another ancient civilization- pictured above. In modern London on Shabbat Eve encountered some of those responsible for trying to destroy Western civilization via their pro-Nakba/anti-Israel demonstrations. Her conversations were of the “don't know whether to laugh or cry” genre. But it's not a game, of thrones or anything else.

Israel on Saturday night reached a ceasefire with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist organization in Gaza, after five days of operation "Shield and Arrow," in which Israel killed several of the group's top terror heads, while absorbing 1,250 rockets. One Israeli was murdered in the rocket attacks in the central Israeli town of Rehovot. But how long will this ceasefire last? On today's Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten offers his thoughts on what Israel needs to do, to end the Gazan terrorist threat once and for all.

Rav Mike Feuer is on the road! Here is an interview with educator and activist R' Shmuly Yanklowitz where they discuss what it means to be both progressive and orthodox, as well as his vision of the Jewish story present and future.

Yishai and Malkah Fleisher discuss the latest attacks on Israel from Islamic Jihad in Gaza - and how the mystical holiday of Lag BaOmer, where fires are lit, coincided. Then, Dr. Mordechai Kedar on Israel's proxy war with Iran. Rabbi Shimshon Nadel on the contentious history of Jerusalem Day celebrations. And Ben Bresky on the story of Israel's first hotelier.

Eve Harow describes her (full) bus trip for One Israel Fund to the Western Negev just 2 days ago. Everywhere they went, including roads, antiquities, memorials and modern communities are, as of this broadcast, closed and under the highest alert waiting for a likely murderous Hamas rocket response to Israel's Shield and Arrow Operation, aimed in a pinpoint fashion at removing Gaza's Islamic Jihad terrorists from doing more harm. What a difference a few hours make; how important it was to visit and understand and connect with the permanent residents of these areas. Adele Raemer of Kibbutz Nirim outside Gaza joined Eve for a few tense minutes to share her reality, staying 15 seconds from a shelter but not evacuating, sending dispatches and keeping people apprised of the situation. Follow her at Zioness on the Border and Life on the Border with Gaza. Everything can change in a flash- this podcast is a glimpse into the moment. May Israel prevail, now and in the future.

Israel on Sunday released Jordanian member of parliament Imad al-Adwan, who was caught smuggling hundreds of weapons into Israel. Despite the fact that it's very likely that the guns were sold to Israel-hating terrorists, the government decided to send the MP back home. On today's Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten argues that giving this MP a hall pass, and allowing him to go home where he will probably just get a slap on the wrist, is a sign of weakness, which Israel's enemies will seize upon. Hasten says the same holds true with Israel's decision this week to allow the families of the terrorists who murdered the three members of the Dee family HY"D to recover their bodies. He argues that Israel must establish a true deterrence in the face of the threats surrounding the Jewish State.

Yishai and Malkah Fleisher discuss the speech given in Knesset by US Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy's and the heart of terror victim Lucy Dee which got a new chest to beat in and a life saved. Then, Rabbi Shimshon Nadel on Jewish law accepting a new Jewish holiday. And finally, Yishai talks about the beauty and challenge of Aliyah with international family lawyer Jay Hait.

Media sources citing a leaked video say that Israel's Justice Minister Yariv Levin has accused the U.S. State Department of funding anti-government protests. Until now only "unnamed officials" have made that claim. The leak comes as President Biden has yet to invite Prime Minister Netanyahu to the White House. However, U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, had nothing but love for the Jewish State, during his Knesset address on Monday. All of this plus the latest news from Israel, including rockets fired at the south by terrorists from Gaza as the podcast was recorded, on this week's Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten.

Native Canadian Ryan Bellerose is in Israel looking to help his country out with its energy issues. He speaks with Eve Harow about the great energy at the pro-reform rally last week; the power of the truth about Israel that has energized him personally through his entire adult life and the binding force of identity that underlies tribal loyalties. A rare cogent voice calling out immorality, hypocrisy and anti-Semitism wherever he sees it, Ryan is drawn to the residents whose lives beat to the rhythm in the heart of Judea. When the indigenous folk come home, there's no power on earth that can stop what is inevitable and right. A true friend, a big man in the ways that matter.

Should Jews be allowed to pray on the Temple Mount? Or will it inflame Muslim sensitivities? Learn the history of this debate from the Six Day War in 1967 when General Moshe Dayan argued with Rabbi Shlomo Goren on the issue, to the fire started by Australian tourist Denis Michael Rohan, the shooting by Allan Goodman, through the 1980s up until the riots in 1990. Plus learn more about Zionist philosopher Shabtai Ben-Dov, radical activist Yehuda Etzion, Gershon Salomon and the Temple Mount Faithful. What Muslims call the Haram al-Sharif and Al Aqsa Mosque and what Jews call the Har HaBayit and Beit HaMikdash have ramifications for today's conflict.

Yishai returns to Israel just in time for Yom Haatzmaut, Israel's Independence Day. First he speaks with Malkah Fleisher on the deeper meaning of the IDF Air Force fly-over and Israel's religious global potential. Then Josh Reinstein, Alex Traiman, and Simcha Gluck, fire up the grill in celebration of Hashem's gift of the Land of Israel. And finally, Leah and Elazar Fleisher on the young people's perspective of the rebirth of the Jewish State. Plus: Rabbi Shimshon Nadel on hearing God's historical knocks.

Rabbi Wildes celebrates Israel's 75th birthday by sitting down with the fascinating Rabbi Jeremy Gimpel who is a teacher, a farmer, and a pioneering entrepreneur. He is also a retired decorated IDF soldier, an author, a musician, and one of Israel's premiere Jewish media personalities. He is the founder of the Land of Israel Network, with millions of views and downloads from over 120 countries, broadcasting Torah and sharing the beauty of Israel with the world. Rabbi Gimpel, along with his wife Tehila and their six children, founded the Arugot Farm and Educational Center at the edge of a Jewish settlement in Judea and Samaria. It has become a global destination for people looking to experience the breathtaking beauty of the Judean Mountains and encounter a living example of Ahavat Eretz Yisrael and Torat Yisrael. They discuss how the building of his farm in Judea and Samaria and interacting with his Arab neighbors inform his view on how Israel and the Palestinians can achieve peace, the current instability in Israel regarding judicial reform, how he'd stop the cycle of brainwashing that the Palestinian leadership perpetuates on their youth, the Biden administration's policy towards Israel, Israel's role to play in bringing the final redemption, and more.

Eve shares her thoughts after guiding at Mount Herzl Military Cemetery in Jerusalem this morning. She literally just landed after a scholar in residence Shabbat in Fair Lawn, New Jersey with the lovely community of Shomrei Torah. It has been a week of ups and downs, trying to find the words for the emotions and situations that Israelis deal with constantly, from PTSD to celebrating a bar mitzvah by the graves of murdered brothers. May the number of the fallen on this Memorial Day stay static, and may we celebrate with heartfelt prayers and endless joy the 75th birthday of the rejuvenated Jewish state tomorrow. Chag Ha'Atzmaut Sameach.

On today's Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, a special interview with Likud Member of Knesset Dan Illouz who says that despite the recent demonstrations in Israel, he is confident that the majority Israelis will joyfully celebrate Yom Ha'azmaut (Israeli Independence Day) this year. He is also optimistic that unity will reign, as he highlights many of the accomplishments of the Jewish State over the past 75 years. MK Illouz also detailed some of his top priorities in making a difference for the people of Israel.

Every tale has a point around which it revolves, and for Rav Mike Feuer and the Jewish Story that is the Temple Mount. Here is the opening round in a new series tracing the way in which the sacred mountain in the middle of Jerusalem is still at the center of our story.

Rabbi Yishai is on the road for Hebron and Israel and pops into the Armamant Museum at Eglin Airforce base to think about the power of bombs (or lack thereof) and Yom Hashoa - Israel Holocaust Remembrance Day. Then, Josh Hammer, Opinion Editor of Newsweek, joins Yishai to unpack the mystery of the Progressive-Jihad alliance and the danger it bring to the US-Israel alliance.

Former Ambassador (and so much more) Dr. Michael Oren has written a new book, representing the ideas of an NGO that's focused on how modern Israel should prepare for its second century. He and Eve Harow discuss ‘2048: The Rejuvenated State', a thoughtful and easy to read analysis that delves into the many challenges that Israel faces as we celebrate 75 years of sovereignty. How to turn ideas into policy while facing existential threats and unconventional warfare is something very few people have the experience and understanding to tackle. Dr. Michael Oren has the credentials. Listen to a seasoned diplomat on Holocaust Memorial Day explain why, with all the uncertainties of the present and the future, one thing is crystal clear: Never Again.

On this week's Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that it was truly difficult joyously celebrating Pesach (Passover) this year, following the terrorist murders of Efrat residents Lucy Dee, 48, and her daughters Maia, 20, and Rina, 15 HY"D, who were gunned down by jihadists while driving in the Jordan Valley. Thousands have paid their respects to the Dee family at the shiva this week, with more and more stories emerging demonstrating how amazing these three lost souls were through their acts of kindness and love of the Land of Israel and the Jewish People.

Eve Harow speaks of the unfathomable grief in her town of Efrat on the brutal murders of Lucy, Maia and Rena Dee hy”d. But don't mistake our collective sorrow for weakness. The people are strong. The faith that some fathers and mothers have instilled in the children of Israel is what is keeping us going: since the time of the Patriarchs and Matriachs, certain core beliefs have been sorely tested yet passed on. Praying for wisdom for our leaders to do what needs to be done. For Israel. For humanity. Miracles will come to those who deserve them and will recognize them. Meanwhile, cry, my beloved nation. And get ready.

Yishai and Malkah Fleisher discuss the Passover holiday from the highs of the Priestly Blessing in Jerusalem to the lows of the murder of Rina and Maya Dee. Then: Aryeh Lightstone on envisioning the future of the Abraham Accords. Zeev Orenstein on living with King David in our time. And Ari Abramowitz on the pain of burying sisters in the Land of Judea.

On today's Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten argues that while the Attorney General and others are up in arms about Israel's new National Guard entrusted to National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, in the end, both Jews and especially Arabs, will be grateful for the new law enforcement body. With rampant crime, murder, and illegal activities especially in the Arab sector, Josh says the new force will tackle these issues, creating a better quality of life for Israel's Arab community, and will thus be welcomed. Ironically, when the idea was conceived under the previous government, the pushback was at a minimum. It sounds like those opposed to the new force, have politics on their mind.

A live webinar on behalf of for Fuel For Truth: Israel Education & Advocacy Training, on "The Crisis of Israeli Sovereignty." First Rav Mike lays out his innovative approach to three dimensions in which sovereignty is exercised - territorial, economic and cultural. Then in the question and answer he engages the judicial reform protests, the purpose of Israel, what it means to be a Jew in modern society and whether one can believe in both the Nakba and in the miracle of Israel's founding.

Yishai and Malkah Fleisher take part in pro-Judicial Reform rally in Jerusalem and give a first hand report on the tensions between divergent poles in Israeli society. Then, just in time for Shabbat Hagadol, Rabbi Shimshon Nadel explains the magic ingredient of Chametz, while Rabbi Shlomo Katz reveals the magic ingredient in the love between Jews in times of crisis.

Dan Diker, head of the revamped Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, speaks with Eve Harow about the first Jerusalem conference for think tank and policy center representatives from 30 Mid East and African countries. Inspired by the Abraham Accords, they're here to learn from and potentially partner with Israeli companies dealing with food, water and national security, environmental issues and counter terrorism concerns. Eve is guiding them for two days now post-conference and enjoying teaching curious and interested Muslims, Christians and Jews who are amazed at what Israel has accomplished with few natural resources. Seeing the country thru outsiders' eyes was a balm to the craziness of the last few days of internal dissension. Let the good times roll. Have an enjoyable Pesach and revel in freedom. It is fragile.

On today's Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh laments this period of extreme disunity in Israel. While Josh is clear in his support of judicial reform, the images from today of Jews demonstrating against each other face to face on the streets of Jerusalem, is extremely difficult to witness.

Here is my call for a constructive alternative to the current mass protests against judicial reform being debated in Israel's Knesset. Along the way we touch some historical context about Prime Minister David Ben Gurion, Supreme Court Justice Aharon Barak, Meir Kahane's Kach party and what the Israeli Declaration of Independence actually says. On the way toward a new model of national covenant we need to learn to speak to one another again, and that also requires understanding how the Disengagement from Gaza and destruction of Gush Katif in 2005 affect our current political situation.

Malkah and Yishai Fleisher discuss the latest Israeli protests, a so-called Day of Paralysis on the very day which God's Presence first appeared in the Tabernacle. Rabbi Shmuely Boteach joins Yishai in the Knesset to fight fear in the Jewish State. And Will Israel also fight for Gaza - Yishai discusses on i24 News.

The rhetoric of hate is at full global volume these days, with the commensurate violence that it engenders. Eve Harow spent the last week guiding for the JLI Land and Spirit Israel Experience- 770 people, 18 buses and educators, a challenging, inspiring and fascinating 8 days of teaching and learning about our heritage and history, geared for US Chabad communities. The places Eve visited reflect our 3800 journey. Her ultimate insight is that we are in a continuous world battle between love and hate societies. Unfortunately the hate/fear/violent people drown out those whose philosophy is faith and love. We need to change that, for the sake of humanity. Soon.

The final installment in the series on the tri-partite part nature of American antisemitism. In this episode Rav Mike Feuer revisits all three forms of Jew-hatred characteristic of society in the United States and touches base with their manifestation in the new millennia. Along the way we identify the narrative endgame driving each of these stories of destruction and consider what the Jews ought to do about it. Learn about the 2001 Durban Conference, James Baldwin, the Oklahoma City Bombing, and Jewish students on college campus today.
