Part 1:We talk with Jeremy Stahl, who writes for Slate.com.We discuss , firstly, Project 2025, and its effect on the Foreign Service of the US.We also discuss the currently ongoing trial of D. Trump in NY. Witll the "mob boss" finally fail? The prosecution is focusing on the coverup, and how it affected the 2016 election, despite the drama of the testimony of Stormy Daniels. Most of the testimony is dry, and Pecker's testimony was supportive of the prosecution's case.Part 2:We speak with Prof. Anat Biletzki, the Albert Schweitzer Professor of Philosophy at Quinnipiac University and with Assoc. Prof. of Classics Joe Howley, who is at Columbia University.We discuss the Statement on Antisemitism issued by Jewish faculty from multiple universities. The statement makes a distinction between criticizing Jews and criticizing Israel. They dispute that any criticism of the state of Israel should not be interpreted as antisemitism. There is room to discuss what a "Jewish state" is, and what role antizionism plays in these discussions. It is Netanyahu who has conflated Judaism with Israel, and this does not help. His motives are not clean. WNHNFM.ORG   production
