Podcasts about Hezbollah

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, the U.S. Constitution and historical documents like the Federalist Papers do not grant the judiciary, including lower federal courts like the U.S. Court on Trade, the final authority in disputes. Congress, as the representative body, holds the ultimate decision-making power, particularly in matters of national policy. The judiciary's self-assumed power, stems from cases like Marbury v. Madison (1803), asserts that the framers intended the courts to act as "traffic cops" ensuring other branches stay within their constitutional lanes, not to usurp their authority. Congress, not the courts, should have the final say, aligning with the republican structure of the government. If the Supreme Court does not stop what these lower courts are doing, and quickly, Mark is going to lead a movement to pressure Congress to remake the lower courts. And under the Constitution, we have every right as the people of this country to press our elected representatives to uphold the Constitution and give us our republic back. The lower courts are violating separation of powers, seizing authority they do not have, and have become populated with rogue lawyers/activists. The Constitution empowers we, the people, and through us, our representatives, to fix this. Also, the Civil War, with over 700,000 casualties in a nation of 24 million, was worth the cost to end slavery and preserve the Union. Similarly, Israel's ongoing conflicts justify decisive action to destroy Hamas and prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, despite repeated ceasefires and attacks from groups like Hezbollah and the Houthis. Israel's fight is for survival, akin to the Civil War's existential stakes. Critics who label this a "forever war" or warmongering are dismissed, as some causes, like survival, demand fighting to the death. Later, Iran is actively advancing its nuclear weapons program. They are developing a sophisticated nuclear program and possesses a growing arsenal of ballistic missiles capable of delivering nuclear warheads over long distances. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, Morgan, Martha, Les, and Jess examine the escalating tensions in the Middle East. Israel has launched a renewed offensive in Gaza amid mounting international pressure to end hostilities and allow humanitarian aid into the territory. Meanwhile, the murder of two young Israeli embassy employees has shocked the world and further underscored the volatility on multiple fronts.As Hamas remains active and Hezbollah and Houthi forces continue attacks—each backed by Iran—the Trump administration navigates complex terrain. With U.S.-Iran nuclear talks ongoing, and intelligence of a potential Israeli strike on Iranian facilities, questions loom: Will the administration's posture embolden or restrain Israeli action? Can Trump's hardline stance on Iran deliver results—or ignite broader conflict? And as Gaza remains in crisis and the region teeters, is Washington's strategy up to the challenge?Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.Follow our experts on Twitter: @morganlroach@marthamillerdc@NotTVJessJones@lestermunsonLike what we're doing here?

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. A new round of negotiations for a Gaza ceasefire and hostage deal between Hamas and Israel began in Qatar on Saturday after the Israeli military launched its new expanded offensive in the Gaza Strip, dubbed “Gideon’s Chariots,” that will seek to “seize strategic areas” of the Hamas-run Strip. Fabian describes the slow rollout of the operation so far and how many more troops have entered Gaza as of Sunday morning. Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis say they fired two ballistic missiles at Israel early Sunday morning. This comes after Israeli fighter jets carried out a wave of airstrikes in Yemen on Friday afternoon, targeting two Houthi-controlled ports in the west of the country, and threatened to kill the terror group’s leader. We discuss the growing realization that the terrorist group is undeterred by IAF strikes and whether Israel will take another tack soon. The Israel Defense Force said Saturday that it killed a Hezbollah commander in a drone strike in Lebanon. The operative, who was targeted on a road near Mazraat Jemjim — some 30 kilometers from the Israeli border — in the Tyre District, was the commander of Hezbollah’s forces in the Beaufort Castle area, the military said. Fabian updates us on who he was and what he was allegedly up to. To end the program, we discuss Israel's participation in last night's Eurovision final and Yuval Raphael's second-place finish. Israel's 2025 contestant, who survived the Nova festival massacre on October 7, 2023, won the popular vote, but was less warmly received by the jury. Fabian gives some reasons why.

Chas Smith (@BeachGrit) is a luminous figure in surfing, an adept journalist, and author. Born in San Jose, California in 1976, Smith's family uprooted and landed in Coos Bay, Oregon where he learned to surf. After studying intercultural studies in undergrad, Smith graduated with a master's in linguistics, going on to study in Egypt and at Oxford. Following a story he published in Australia Surfing Life about surfing in Yemen in the wake of 9/11, Smith went on to report in Lebanon, Somalia, Israel-Palestine, and wound up a captive of Hezbollah reporting for Current TV. In the early-aughts, Smith worked for Vice. Soon, he joined Stab magazine at the behest of Derek Rielly, then editor-in-chief, and they set in on an unparalleled era in surf journalism. Some of Stab's more controversial content garnered unsavory public spats that earned Smith some anti-Semitic epithets, and then in 2014, Smith and Reilly began Beach Grit—a deep well of incendiary, tongue-in-cheek honesty drenched in satire, sans filter. He's now a regular contributor to The Surfer's Journal, with bylines at Esquire and Playboy, and the author of Paradise, Now Go to Hell, a cultural vignette of Oahu's North Shore, which was a finalist for the PEN Center USA Award for Nonfiction.If you dig this podcast, will you please leave a short review on Apple Podcasts?

Wednesday, May 14 marked the 77th anniversary of Israel becoming a nation. This significant historical and biblical event was overshadowed this week when President Donald Trump traveled to the Middle East but did not visit Israel. During this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd discusses the opportunity that Trump missed this week along with other alarming developments and how they are setting the stage for the fulfillment of another Bible prophecy concerning Israel.Visit the Blessors of Israel Website: https://www.blessors.org/ Thank you for supporting Blessors of Israel.

Iran Thinks They Can Outlast Trump. Can They?    President Donald Trump embarked on his first major foreign trip to the Middle East this week, making stops in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.    The goal? Replacing “strife” with “money,” bring Iran into the fold, and drop hostilities towards Israel. An ambitious agenda, maybe too ambitious, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “And the subtext of all of these meetings were: We're going to replace strife with money. We're all gonna be profitable. And we have to bring the cause of all of this trouble, Iran, into the fold of the Middle East and drop the hostility to Israel. Notice, of course, that he didn't go to Israel, although he was trying to elicit support for the continuation of the Abraham Accords with Saudi Arabia and Qatar.   “This is very ambitious but it's also very dangerous. Donald Trump thinks he can cut a deal with Iran so that they would do essentially three things: They would give up their nuclear program; they would stop the subsidies to the terrorist surrogates of the Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis; and they would liberalize their society and reenter the family of nations.   I don't think that Shia theocracy feels that is their agenda.”   

How It All Ends! (White Horse Series) by Dr. Richard Ruhling Amazon.com An increasing number of people are wondering, Are we getting to the biblical end-times? The answer is YES, but most people do not know that Muslims will precipitate it as seen in Christ's warning for Jerusalem. We can expect the war against Israel to escalate with Jerusalem taken as Zechariah 14 shows. Hezbollah has already joined with Hamas. In Hebrew, hamas is translated as violence in Genesis 6:13. God knew what was coming. and the Bible says, "The Lord shall roar from Jerusalem...the heavens and earth shall shake," Joel 3:16. That earthquake will be felt worldwide as it initiates the biblical end-times. God won't do anything without revealing it, Amos 3:7, and the next verse is the "roar" that He wants to reveal. The “roar” is one of four ways the earthquake is encoded in Revelation. The last of seven churches, lukewarm with materialism, ended in an earthquake also encoded as a “knock” circa 63 AD. And the message to that church has 7 parallels to Luke's wedding parable where, when Christ “knocks,” The passage links a Biblical meaning to current events, and if we understand, we can move forward to be part of Christ's kingdom after His knock (earthquake).About the author Richard Ruhling, MD, MPH was board-certified in Internal Medicine and taught Health Science at Loma Linda University. NIH gifted his school $40 million for a study to learn why the community lived about seven years longer than other non-smokers. The study supports the benefits of a vegan or vegetarian diet and many diseases are reversible if we eat wisely. Ruhling's wife died from another MD's prescription for a urinary infection and Ruhling visited US senators with medical literature showing that prescription drugs are a leading cause of illness and death. One senator said, “You are wasting your time—they own us,” speaking of drug company donations to their re-election campaigns. Ruhling was reared a Seventh-day Adventist, but now sees all denominations as stuck in their own history and closed to new truth from the Bible. His latest book, From Lockdown to knockdown The Fall of America & New World Order. It points to Judgment for US in 2023. It shows how judgment fell on Egypt for killing Israelite babies and how the US has aborted 60 million and enslaved most people in substance abuse and negative lifestyles.

This week on Babel, Jon Alterman speaks with Dr. Mohanad Hage Ali, deputy director for research at the Carnegie Middle East Center in Beirut. Mohanad's latest paper for Carnegie investigates the rise of a new form of drug smuggling in Lebanon. Together, they discuss Hezbollah's involvement in these drug networks, as well as the opportunities to bolster Lebanese sovereignty and state institutions as a result of the group's weakened standing. Then, Jon continues the conversation with Mona Yacoubian, the CSIS Middle East Program's new director, and Asher Grant-Sasson to discuss the challenges the shifting drug trade poses for Lebanese stability. Transcript: "Mohanad Hage Ali: Hezbollah and the Captagon Trade⁠⁠," CSIS, May 15, 2025. Mohanad's latest work: "Double Dealers: Lebanon and the Risks of Captagon Trafficking," Carnegie, March 19, 2025.

Tune in here to this Tuesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program talking about the emotional and significant release of Eden Alexander, the longest-held hostage by Hamas. He expresses deep empathy for the victim’s family and the unimaginable anguish they endured. Brett emphasizes that holding civilians as ransom is a war crime and strongly denounces the October 7th attacks, describing them as targeted assaults on innocent people. He contrasts the values of Israel—where religious freedom thrives—with the oppressive, violent tactics of terrorist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah. We’re joined by Carson Luger, chairman of the St. Philip Neri Italian Festival, to talk about the Italian Festival starting this Thursday and going on through Saturday. The festival will have authentic Italian food, artisans, and entertainment. This will be the 28th annual festival with tens of thousands of visitors over the years.For great authentic Italian food, good company, and a family-friendly night out, check out the St. Philip Neri Italian Festival this Thursday through Saturday! Bo Thompson from Good Morning BT is also here for this Monday's episode of Crossing the Streams. Brett and Bo talk about the Charlotte Hornets’ chances in the NBA Draft Lottery and the potential impact of landing top prospect Cooper Flagg. Reflecting on the team’s history—from Larry Johnson and Alonzo Mourning to more recent highs with Kemba Walker—they discuss how securing the number one pick could reignite Charlotte’s basketball legacy. The conversation then pivots to politics, as they analyze reports that Donald Trump may acquire a luxury jet from Qatar. Bo shares insights from his interview with Mick Mulvaney, highlighting the complexities of retrofitting such an aircraft to presidential standards and speculating on Trump’s true intentions—whether to use it as Air Force One, a future museum centerpiece, or a negotiating chip with Boeing. Bo also shares what he and Beth have coming up Tuesday on Good Morning BT! Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show!

Après le 8 octobre 2023 et l'offensive lancée par le Hezbollah - en solidarité avec le Hamas à Gaza -, 60 000 personnes ont été priées d'évacuer les villages et communautés frontalières au Liban. En mars, le gouvernement israélien a décrété que le retour était possible, mais toutes ne sont pas revenues. Dans le nord d'Israël, le Kibboutz de Kfar Blum, lui, se trouvait juste en dehors de la zone d'évacuation. Trop loin pour que les habitants puissent bénéficier d'une aide gouvernementale pour se réinstaller ailleurs, mais suffisamment proche du Liban pour constituer une cible de choix pour le Hezbollah. Jeux d'enfants dans l'école élémentaire de Kfar Blum. Loin des sons de la guerre qui rythmaient le quotidien l'an dernier.« Ça, c'est une roquette qui part ! Ah, là, elle est tombée. Ils ont tout appris, les enfants, souligne-t-elle en riant. Ils sont très intelligents. Ils se sont habitués à la situation, et je pense que, le soir, ils devaient regarder les informations ! »Limor Dadon et Shani Saar sont deux enseignantes. Elles habitent ailleurs, mais n'ont jamais quitté leur poste, même quand les sirènes hurlaient et les roquettes tombaient. « Certains enfants ont quand même développé de l'anxiété. J'ai un élève qui malheureusement s'est fait pipi dessus en entendant le son des sirènes d'alerte. Il faut s'occuper de quinze enfants qui demandent en panique "mon Dieu qu'est-ce-qui se passe ?". Mais il faut aussi s'occuper de ce garçon qui a peur, et qui a honte de ce qui s'est passé. En tant qu'enseignante, il faut montrer de la force, montrer qu'on contrôle la situation. C'est le plus important. »« En fait, instaurer une routine les aide à rester sains d'esprit. Il faut leur dire "OK, il y a tout ça autour de nous, mais ça va aller". »À lire aussiGuerre au Liban: le cessez-le-feu entre le Hezbollah et Israël a débutéKfar Blum ne sera plus jamais pareil« On a commencé à travailler sans clients, et sans travailleur. On n'avait pas de clients, pas de visiteurs, on n'avait rien. » Elyse est une cadre de l'hôtel Pastoral. Elle décrit la réalité pendant la guerre dans ce lodge de luxe depuis janvier. Après d'immenses efforts de la direction, la main d'œuvre est presque entièrement revenue. « 80 % et on attend, on attend jusqu'à ce que tous les gens retournent avec les enfants. L'année prochaine, j'espère qu'on aura tous nos travailleurs ici. »« Quand tous les habitants seront rentrés, que trouveront-ils ? Quelques maisons partiellement abimées, à réparer sans l'aide du gouvernement puisque les autorités n'ont pas évacué le village », s'exclame Masha. La vieille dame habite Kfar Blum depuis 1955. Pour elle, une chose plus importante encore s'est brisée à Kfar Blum. « Ici, ça ne sera plus jamais comme avant. On ne parle même plus des sujets qui fâchent entre nous. Ça part en hurlements. Ce n'est pas comme en ville où tout le monde s'exprime. On n'est pas ennemis pourtant, on est tous Israéliens. Mais si vous n'êtes pas avec ce gouvernement, Bibi et les autres, on vous déteste et c'est cela qu'ils cherchent. »« Ils », ce sont les soldats du Hezbollah de l'autre côté de la frontière. Dans le nord d'Israël, nombreux sont ceux qui pensent que la menace n'a pas disparu. Des familles avec enfants attendent la fin de l'année scolaire pour se décider éventuellement à retourner à Kfar Blum. Sur les 60 000 personnes évacuées des localités du nord, la moitié seulement seraient rentrées.À lire aussiLiban: la confiance entre le Hezbollah et les nouvelles autorités libanaises se fissure

This week on Talk World Radio we're talking about Palestine with Kathy Kelly who is board president of World BEYOND War. From 2022 to 2024, she co-coordinated the Merchants of Death War Crimes Tribunal. Since the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan, she has co-coordinated an international network to assist young Afghans forced to flee their country. She made over two dozen trips to Afghanistan from 2010 – 2019, living with young Afghan Peace Volunteers in a working-class neighborhood in Kabul. With Voices in the Wilderness companions, from 1996 – 2003, she traveled twenty-seven times to Iraq, defying the economic sanctions and remaining in Iraq throughout the Shock and Awe bombing and the initial weeks of the invasion. She joined subsequent delegations to the West Bank's Jenin Camp in 2002 during and after Israeli attacks, to Lebanon during the 2006 summer war between Israel and Hezbollah and to Gaza, in 2009, during Operation Cast Lead and following the 2013 Operation Pillar of Defense. Kathy has been an educator for most of her life, but she believes children of war and those who are victims of violence have been her most important teachers.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. According to the Hamas health ministry, two IDF airstrikes early Wednesday hit the Karama School in Tuffah, a suburb of Gaza City, killing 15. Later in the day, an Israeli strike near a restaurant and market in the city killed at least 33 people, including women and children. Fabian reports on these two incidents and assesses where the IDF is currently heading in Gaza based on statements from IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir yesterday. A Hamas commander was killed in an Israeli airstrike in the southern coastal Lebanese city of Sidon early Wednesday morning. What was Khaled Ahmad al-Ahmad responsible for? Three Israeli soldiers were wounded in two attacks carried out by Palestinians in the northern and southern West Bank on Wednesday afternoon. Even as the fighting in Gaza is ramping up, we learn that the concentration of forces are still largely in the West Bank. As the army is searching for manpower, it apparently has no lack of woman power. Women still cannot enlist into all fighting units, but where they can, they’re showing up in record numbers. Fabian talks about this and a new rededicated unit -- where women can serve -- aimed at fighting drones along the northern border. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

President Donald Trump is right to believe that Iran is in a historically vulnerable position right now.    The Assad regime is kaput. Hezbollah's effectiveness has been dramatically reduced since Oct. 7. Hama is living underground among the rubble of Gaza.    However, even with a maximum pressure campaign, oil embargoes, domestic instability, two things will never change:    You can't trust a word that comes out of the Iranian regime's mouth, and their legitimacy hinges on acquiring nuclear weapons, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “The pressure is all on Iran. Militarily. Diplomatically. Economically. Socially. Culturally. What do I mean by that? Culturally, there is about 30% to 40% of the country are non-Farsi Persian speakers. And they're very restive, angry. Power outages. The regime is unpopular. It's diverted billions of dollars to these terrorist appendages that now didn't pay off, that they're defunct.    “And so, Donald Trump thinks that he, with this maximum pressure, putting this crushing oil embargo—which by the way, Joe Biden lifted—that he can bring them to negotiations one last time.   “Personally, I don't think he can. Nothing that that regime has ever said is accurate. Nobody in the MAGA movement wants an optional war in the Middle East. But they will have nuclear weapons, perhaps in a year. So, what is the likely scenario?”

Alors que la paix entre Palestiniens et Israéliens n'a jamais semblé aussi lointaine, une grappe d'étudiants palestiniens a fait le choix de suivre un cursus d'« études israéliennes ». Au programme : cours d'hébreu, études de grands textes du judaïsme et de la littérature israélienne, histoire et sociologie d'Israël. La prestigieuse université de Birzeit, en bordure de Ramallah, affiche clairement ses objectifs : « Mieux connaître l'occupant » pour mieux le combattre sur le terrain des idées. De notre correspondante à Ramallah,C'est un cours d'hébreu... à la palestinienne. Il démarre par une distribution de baklawas. Grand sourire, une étudiante annonce ses fiançailles tout en promenant un plateau de pâtisseries. Gourmand, Esmat Mansour, le professeur, se sert tout en ne perdant pas de vue ses objectifs pédagogiques : « Mazel tov ! Mazel Tov ! » Les yeux rieurs encadrés de lunettes, il confie à voix basse : « L'hébreu rappelle de mauvais souvenirs aux étudiants. Pour eux, c'est la langue des checkpoints. Alors, j'essaie autant que je le peux de détendre l'atmosphère pendant le cours. Moi, j'adore l'hébreu et mon rôle, c'est de faire aimer cette langue à mes étudiants. Je leur dis souvent qu'en maîtrisant l'hébreu, ils vont gagner en force et en confiance en eux. Si tu ne sais pas t'exprimer en hébreu, les Israéliens te mépriseront. »L'hébreu, le quinquagénaire a eu tout le loisir de l'apprendre en prison où il a passé vingt années de sa vie pour participation au meurtre d'un Israélien établi dans une colonie. Il avait pour camarade de cellule un certain Yahya Sinwar, ancien numéro un du Hamas et instigateur des attaques du 7-Octobre qui ont fait basculer la région dans un chaos dont on ne voit plus la fin.Mais sur ce lourd passé, l'homme préfère se faire discret : « Mes étudiants sont curieux et veulent en savoir plus sur l'expérience de la prison, mais l'université n'est pas le lieu pour le faire. Ici, je ne parle que des bons aspects de la prison. Avoir pu apprendre l'hébreu est l'une de ces bonnes choses. »« C'est normal de vouloir en savoir plus sur les Israéliens »Lui qui dit croire désormais en une « solution politique » au conflit, prodigue la matière phare du cursus : l'hébreu à raison de neuf heures par semaine. Révisions du vocabulaire de base et apprentissage de quelques adages en hébreu, le cours se déroule dans une ambiance bon enfant teintée de salves d'humour noir. Après la lecture d'un texte évoquant la protection de la nature et des animaux, un étudiant lance, cynique : « Ils sont fantastiques, les Israéliens ! Ils font attention à tout, la nature, les animaux ! Sauf à nous ! Nous non, on ne compte pas ! Pourquoi ? Aucune idée ! ». Les rires fusent. « Les plus tragiques des désastres sont ceux qui provoquent des rires », soutient le poète palestinien Mohammed El-Kurd dans son recueil « Rifqa ». Ici, on rit beaucoup. Tout en rondeurs et sourires lui aussi, Rabih Bader, 27 ans, dit vouloir entamer un travail de recherche consacré à ce qu'il appelle la « judaïsation de l'histoire palestinienne » par les Israéliens. Impossible donc de faire l'impasse sur l'hébreu : « C'est normal de vouloir en savoir plus sur les Israéliens. Eux savent tout de nous. Ils ont de très bons départements d'études palestiniennes dans leurs universités. Ils étudient non seulement l'arabe, mais même les différents dialectes palestiniens. Ils sont super spécialisés, à nous d'en faire de même. » Oreilles dressées pour écouter les cours, plusieurs étudiants gardent un œil en permanence sur leurs smartphones. Les dernières informations sont égrenées à haute voix : arrestations, incursions de l'armée israélienne ou rumeurs de fuites de documents au sein du Shin Bet, l'appareil de renseignements israéliens, la salle de classe a aussi des airs de rédaction. On commente, on se perd en conjectures et souvent, on ironise, encore et encore, sur la situation. Un programme lancé il y a dix ansPour accéder à cette rieuse salle de classe, il en aura fallu de la patience. Ici comme dans beaucoup d'endroits de Cisjordanie occupée, la méfiance règne. Avant de nous autoriser à nous mêler à leurs étudiants, les responsables de l'université de Birzeit annoncent avoir fait « leur enquête » sur nous. Un mois et demi d'échanges d'e-mails, de messages WhatsApp, de smileys, de vœux pour l'Aïd, de rencontres et de tractations plus tard, les portes de ce programme académique inédit s'ouvrent enfin à notre micro.Sous un portrait de Shireen Abou Aqleh – ancienne étudiante et professeur à Birzeit, mais surtout journaliste star d'Al Jazeera abattue en plein reportage à Jénine par l'armée israélienne – Najat Abdulhaq, sémillante responsable du département de la communication de l'université explique sa prudence. Smartphone en main, elle montre des photos des différents raids de l'armée israélienne sur le campus. Les dizaines d'étudiants arrêtés, les salles de classes retournées et les drapeaux arrachés l'incitent à la prudence désormais. Dans ce contexte hautement explosif, comment étudier sereinement la société israélienne ? Quand ce programme a été lancé il y a dix ans, un dilemme s'est posé d'emblée : peut-on étudier la société israélienne tout en évitant la « normalisation » ? La solution est vite trouvée. Les seuls Israéliens autorisés à donner cours ici sont des Palestiniens, citoyens d'Israël, comme Areen Hawari, directrice d'un centre de recherches à Haïfa, en Israël. Petite, coupe au carré, elle confie que cette escapade académique hebdomadaire en Cisjordanie occupée est paradoxalement une bouffée d'air pour elle : « Je suis heureuse d'enseigner ici à Birzeit. Je suis palestinienne et cela fait partie de notre projet de libération. Oui, cela fait partie de notre projet de libération de pouvoir produire des études qui soient critiques du colonialisme d'un point de vue académique. Je suis très enthousiaste. » Composant 20% de la population israélienne, les Palestiniens d'Israël sont minoritaires. Présentés comme une cinquième colonne qui menace la sécurité de l'État hébreu, ces professeurs – malgré les checkpoints qu'ils doivent franchir pour venir enseigner en Cisjordanie occupée – trouvent ici paradoxalement un répit de quelques heures dans le climat de suspicion généralisée qui prédomine en Israël. « J'ai un passeport israélien, mais je me sens palestinienne et je porte le poids de la douleur des Palestiniens moi aussi. Notre souhait, c'est qu'Israël ne soit pas un État que pour les juifs, mais pour tous les citoyens. On veut un État démocratique », poursuit Areen Hawari. Combattre la colonisation par les armes du savoirUn département d'études israéliennes peut-il se concevoir sans professeurs israéliens juifs ? Pour Asma, étudiante aussi appliquée qu'impliquée, la question ne se pose pas : « On n'a pas de professeur juif effectivement, mais le problème ce n'est pas la confession en soi. On ne veut pas avoir de profs sionistes. Mais ça n'empêche pas qu'on les lise. On ne peut pas comprendre les Israéliens si on ne lit pas Theodor Herzl et d'autres penseurs du sionisme ». Le sionisme. Le terme revient beaucoup en cours. « Plus de terre, moins d'Arabes », lance une étudiante pour le définir. Une question survient alors : « Peut-on étudier un domaine que l'on n'aime pas ? » Sans circonvolutions, Asma répond avec l'aplomb des punchlines propres à sa génération : « On est un peu comme les médecins qui étudient le cancer. Les médecins n'aiment pas le cancer, mais ils l'étudient pour pouvoir le combattre. » Tous, ici, professeurs comme étudiants, ont l'impression de combattre la colonisation par les armes du savoir. Fondée à l'aube du XXe siècle, l'Université de Birzeit a une longue tradition d'engagement pour la cause palestinienne. Les Français l'ont découverte à la (dé)faveur du déplacement de Lionel Jospin sur le campus le 26 février 2000. Pris à partie par des étudiants scandalisés par ses propos sur le Hezbollah qu'il a qualifié de « terroriste », le Premier ministre français essuie jets de tracts et de pierres. La scène donne des sueurs froides à son personnel de sécurité et vient rappeler combien chaque mot est miné dans cette région du monde. Un programme financé par le Centre arabe de recherche et de sciences politiques de DohaUn quart de siècle plus tard, rien n'a changé. L'Orient reste plus que jamais « compliqué » et suscite l'intérêt redoublé de programmes de recherches du monde entier. À commencer par celui des riches pétromonarchies du Golfe désormais convaincues de la nécessité d'investir dans le savoir en plus de la pierre et des clubs de football européens. La petite trentaine d'étudiants qui suit le programme bénéficient ainsi d'une bourse financée par le Centre arabe de recherche et de sciences politiques de Doha. Un institut dirigé par l'intellectuel palestinien Azmi Bishara également citoyen d'Israël où il fut député. Recherche, journalisme, diplomatie, les secteurs en mesure d'accueillir ces rares étudiants palestiniens connaisseurs en profondeur de la société israélienne sont nombreux et stratégiques.Casquette vissée sur la tête, main qui caresse tantôt un chapelet tantôt une cigarette, Mohanad, le regard clair – lui aussi ancien prisonnier comme 40% des hommes palestiniens et dont le nom sera tu pour des raisons de sécurité – confie pourtant avoir du mal à savoir ce qu'il fera de son diplôme. « Tu sais, nous en Palestine, on ne sait plus se projeter. Là, je suis avec toi, mais demain qui sait où je serai ? J'ai été emprisonné deux fois. Je peux être emprisonné à nouveau à tout moment. Depuis le 7-Octobre, on parle même de nous faire partir d'ici de façon massive. C'est difficile de pouvoir réfléchir à l'avenir ».  « L'impossible futur ; comment la colonisation israélienne sape les rêves d'avenir de la jeunesse palestinienne ». Un thème de recherche académique en soi…

Is mise Liam Ó Brádaigh. Sa Spáinn, leantar le himscrúduithe ar cad ba chúis le gearradh cumhachta tubaisteach an tseachtain seo, ceann de na bristeacha leictreachais is mó san Eoraip riamh. De réir anailísithe, thit an mhinicíocht ar eangach leictreachais na Spáinne go tobann, rud a chuir tús le múchadh go leor stáisiún cumhachta. Tá sé ráite ag Príomh-aire na Spáinne, Pedro Sánchez, go bhfuil an rialtas ag fiosrú gach cúis fhéideartha. Mar sin féin, tá polaiteoirí an fhreasúra ag cur an mhilleáin ar spleáchas na Spáinne ar fhuinneamh in-athnuaite. Fágadh thart ar 55 milliún duine sa Spáinn, sa Phortaingéil agus in áiteanna eile i ndeisceart na Fraince gan leictreachas Dé Luain. I measc na ngnéithe den saol ar cuireadh isteach orthu bhí comharthaí soghluaiste, soilse tráchta agus baincéireacht dhigiteach.Tá an grúpa rapcheoil ó Bhéal Feirste Kneecap á fhiosrú ag póilíní frithsceimhlitheoireachta sa Ríocht Aontaithe tar éis físeáin a tháinig chun cinn ina dtaispeántar an banna, de réir líomhaintí, ag iarraidh básanna Feisirí de chuid an Pháirtí Choimeádaigh agus ag béicíl "Up Hamas, up Hezbollah". D'eisigh Kneecap ráiteas ag rá nach nglacann siad leis an bhforéigean agus nach dtacaíonn siad le Hamas ná Hezbollah, ach gur cuireadh feachtas smearaidh orthu mar gheall ar a dtacaíocht leanúnach don Phalaistín agus ar a gcáineadh ar Iosrael. Tá litir oscailte sínithe ag na scórtha de cheoltóirí as Éirinn agus an Ríocht Aontaithe araon ag tacú leis an triúr agus ag rá go raibh “iarracht shoiléir, chomhbheartaithe idir lámha chun cinsireacht a dhéanamh ar an mbanna agus ar deireadh thiar iad a chur ó ardán”.Sna Toghcháin do Theach na dTeachtaí i gCeanada tá téarma eile i gcumhacht faighte ag an bPáirtí Liobrálach.

Tragic Awakening is a documentary tracing the roots of antisemitism following the October 7, 2023 Hamas massacre of 1200+ Israelis, and kidnapping and torture of over 240 Israeli's and other nationalities. Directed by Award-winning filmmaker, Wayne Kopping, whose other works include, Obsession, Israel Inside, and The Third Jihad. The film features NY Times best-selling author Douglass Murray, Rabbi Raphael Shore, who is an award-winning producer and author of 'Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Jew?' and Rawan Osman, a Syrian-born Muslim who was indoctrinated by Hezbollah to hate Jews, but is now a convert to Judaism and a staunch pro-Zionist advocate.

This week is very special for us at the Unreported Story Society. We are releasing another of our special projects for all of you to watch and enjoy.We are releasing the filmed version of our play Trans on Trial.The story has never been more relevant or important particularly in the light of the recent UK Supreme Court decision on gender.The filmed play is based entirely on the transcripts of a dramatic five-day UK Charity Commission trial. Trans On Trial captures the intense legal battle between Mermaids, a trans youth advocacy group, and The LGB Alliance, a gay rights charity, that believes women are women and men are men and it is impossible to change one's sex. And they also believe children should not be given puberty blockers or be subjected to mutilating surgery.The film shows just how shallow the trans ideology actually is.This was the first time these people faced hard questions and they had no answers. At times the court case descended into farce as they tried to justify the ridiculousness. The play is serious but it is also very, very funny. It is also a hugely important piece of human rights history and we are so happy that you and the world will see it.This week's guest is actually depicted in the play, and will be talking about the historic UK Supreme Court decision - declaring that a woman, among other things, is a woman, and the backlash that came from it.And so do Irish band KNEECAP support Hamas and Hezbollah and the murder of British Memebers of Parliament or is it all just a massive "out of context" misunderstanding?And more importantly should they go to prison for their views.

Chris Katulka is assistant director of North American Ministries at The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry and host of The Friends of Israel Today radio program. He is a Bible teacher, and writer for Israel My Glory magazine and is author of the book, Israel Always.Chris explained how the design of Israel's calendar is very intentional. It's designed to walk the Israeli from remembering the Holocaust to Yom HaZikaron (Day of Remembrance for Israel's fallen soldiers) to this very day as soldiers are losing their lives in the battle with Hamas and Hezbollah. It's all designed as a time of remembrance, laying the foundation for remembering Israel's independence. Review this broadcast and realize that as a modern nation, Israel is only 77 years old yet it's history goes back millennia to the time of Abraham. You'll also hear Chris detail the U.S. role in the formation of modern Israel, the modern advances that have come about because of Israel, the upcoming Great Tribulation and much more.

In today's MidEast & Beyond, we break down the massive explosion at Iran's Bandar Abbas port, tensions with Hezbollah in Lebanon, and growing shifts among the Druze community in Syria. We also look at Trump's changing approach to Iran and Gaza, escalating cyber threats in Europe, the global rise of antisemitism, and how Bible prophecy is unfolding before our eyes.

This year has tested Israel and the Jewish people like never before. Amid devastating war, political chaos, and a global surge in antisemitism, Noam Weissman reflects on an astonishing truth: it could have been even worse. In this episode of Unpacking Israeli History, Noam revisits a few breathtaking stories of Israel's legendary intelligence agency, the Mossad, whose secret missions have saved countless lives. From the brilliant sabotage of Hezbollah's communications network in 2024 to the dramatic 1973 "Operation Spring of Youth" where Israeli commandos disguised themselves in drag to eliminate top PLO leaders, these missions are the stuff of spy thrillers—except they're real.

It was a result of the DELIBERATE DEINDUSTRIALIZATION of the West.     Spain, Portugal, and parts of France and Belgium lost power yesterday exposes YET ANOTHER FLAW in “renewable energy” sources — a loss of “inertia” in the grid. 35:50 First 100 Days: Trump says “I Run the Country and the World”     With 130 executive orders in under 100 days, he's bypassing Congress and the judiciary, claiming sweeping powers over trade, immigration, and speech.  He says he “runs the country” and he's talking about a third term.  What would George Washington say?     Is this the end of constitutional governance and the rise of an imperial presidency?     What will Democrats do with this kind of power? 56:57 Trump Demands Investigations Into Media for Unfavorable PollIncluding FOX News.  His press secretary doesn't shy away from suggestions that Supreme Court members could be arrested 1:03:31 LIVE audience comments and questions 1:14:25 Tariff Tsunami Hits West Coast Soon: A Slow-Motion Wrecking Ball Devastating Small Businesses, Truckers FirstCritics warn Trump's reckless trade war, coupled with a deliberately weakened U.S. dollar, is a calculated move to favor Wall Street giants while obliterating “non-essential” mom-and-pop truckers and retailers.

Truman during evasive maneuvers, and whispers of direct hits on U.S. warships swirl, backed by Hezbollah footage.     The Pentagon hides the truth as Houthi drones—worth pennies compared to $30 million U.S. Reapers—down American assets     Peter Hitchens exposes how Ukraine's conflict, provoked by NATO's eastward push and CIA-backed coups, mirrors Yemen's chaos and shows that all the claims of “fighting for democracy” are a mockery and a lie 2:41:01 The Fun Police and AI PacificationThe fun police are shutting down your holidays, and AI is dumbing down creativity!

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian and culture editor Jessica Steinberg join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Fabian was in the Gaza Strip last week at the Morag Corridor. He compares this trip to previous IDF embeds and describes what he saw. We learn about the very intense fighting in the Strip and hear about the incidents in which three servicemen recently lost their lives: Master Sgt. (res.) Asaf Cafri, Cpt. Ido Voloch and Sgt. Neta Yitzhak Kahane, of the Border Police’s Yamas covert unit. For only the third time since a ceasefire in Lebanon went into effect in November 2024, the IDF carried out an attack in the Beirut area. We learn what the IDF was targeting and what this means for the ceasefire. Some 12,000 people led by Holocaust survivors and an Israeli delegation of released hostages, hostages’ family members, and bereaved families marched Thursday from Auschwitz to the Birkenau camp for the 2025 March of the Living, with the horrors of the murder of six million Jews mingling with the plight of the captives in Gaza. Steinberg was on the ground with them and reports back. To end the program, we hear about a rally staged Sunday night by the families of the “Beautiful 6,” six hostages murdered by Hamas terrorists in Gaza at the end of August last year. The six hostages killed by their captors in Gaza were Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Almog Sarusi, Or Danino and Alex Lubanov. We hear about an evening of song, prayer and calls for unity. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog for more updates.

Trump's Approval Ratings Dip - But Democrats Gain Nothing – New polling shows Trump's support falling to 41% approval, driven by concerns over the economy and tariffs. Still, Democrats haven't gained ground, and Trump remains strong on immigration, where most Americans support mass deportation. Supreme Court Temporarily Blocks Deportations Under Alien Enemies Act – In a rare 1 a.m. decision, justices halt deportation of Venezuelan migrants as legal challenges unfold. The ruling is part of a larger legal war over Trump's deportation agenda across four categories of migrants. Medicare Abuse by Migrants Targeted – The administration is using health data to find illegal immigrants fraudulently collecting benefits. Self-deportation through hardship remains a central strategy. Economic Outlook: Gloomy but with Bright Spots – While tariffs spark fears of stagflation and job loss, data shows prices remain stable, and U.S. steel, aluminum, and construction firms are adding jobs. Ten mining projects are fast-tracked as America fights rare earth dependence on China. Global Updates: Ukraine Peace Talks Stalling, Iran Playing Nuclear Games – Trump's patience wears thin with Ukraine peace efforts. Iran limits inspections and removes nuclear surveillance, leaving Israel considering a unilateral strike. Gaza and Lebanon: Hamas Goes Broke, Lebanese Army Arrests Militants – Israel is squeezing Hamas financially, and Lebanon's new president is cracking down on Hezbollah and Palestinian radicals. U.S. Troops Coming Home from Syria – The drawdown begins as Trump fulfills his promise to wind down America's anti-ISIS mission. Health Tip of the Day: The 10-Second Balance Test – UK researchers say if you can't balance on one foot for 10 seconds, you may face higher health risks. Stretch, walk, and squat your way to better longevity. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32​
