US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has denounced the decision by five Western governments to impose sanctions on far-right ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich. Rubio called on the United Kingdom, Canada, Norway, New Zealand and Australia to reverse their decision. “These sanctions do not advance US-led efforts to achieve a ceasefire, bring all hostages home and end the war,” he said. KAN's Mark Weiss spoke about the sanctions with Res Ltn Col Maurice Hirsch from the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs.

What if a 2,700-year-old prophecy could explain the chaos in America today—and offer your family a roadmap to understand our times? If you’ve ever wondered whether Scripture speaks to the headlines—or how to make biblical prophecy compelling and relatable for the next generation—this episode is for you. Catherine welcomes back internationally acclaimed best-selling author and prophetic voice Jonathan Cahn for a powerful conversation that bridges ancient truth with modern turmoil. Known by many as one of the most influential Christian leaders of our time, Jonathan returns to discuss the reimagining of his groundbreaking book The Harbinger—a New York Times bestseller for over 100 weeks—now released as a stunning, fully illustrated graphic novel designed to captivate a new generation. Together, Catherine and Jonathan explore why biblical prophecy isn’t just a theological niche—it’s a vital tool for apologetics and a faith-building resource for parents and teens alike. With clarity and conviction, Jonathan unveils the uncanny and often chilling ways that the prophetic patterns of ancient Israel are unfolding in America today. In this episode, you’ll discover: The shocking biblical parallels between Israel’s fall and America’s spiritual decline How prophecy can transform your family’s faith and spark meaningful dialogue with your teens Why modern-day prophetic fulfillment serves as a powerful and often overlooked defense of the Christian faith Jonathan shares how specific warnings from Scripture—originally spoken to ancient Israel—are now echoing in America through real-world events, political acts, and public declarations. These harbingers manifest in physical objects and moments of national significance—often through leaders who are unaware they are echoing the voice of God. From the fallen sycamore tree at Ground Zero to prophetic utterances on Capitol Hill, this conversation builds a compelling case for the supernatural accuracy of God’s Word. Don’t miss these unforgettable moments: Jonathan’s miraculous journey from never having written a book to penning The Harbinger, and the prophetic confirmations that guided him The jaw-dropping fact that Isaiah 9:10—the very verse warning of judgment—was the daily reading in the One Year Bible on September 11th… sixteen years before 9/11 A powerful discussion about America’s current “window of opportunity” for revival—and how humility, repentance, and prayer are key to changing the course of our nation Jonathan delivers a sobering reminder: “If we change the laws but don’t change the people, the unchanged people will change the laws back… The only thing that can save America is repentance and revival.” And Catherine challenges parents to respond with faith, not fear: “The signs of the times are not a cause to be afraid, but a call to return.” As you listen, ask yourself:What might God be saying to your family through the shaking of our times?How can you use prophecy—not only to defend your faith—but to plant seeds of unshakable hope in your children’s hearts? About the guest: Jonathan Cahn has been named along with Billy Graham as one of the top spiritual leaders to have radically impacted our world in modern times.

Through the lens of Revelation 12, he explains a cosmic struggle involving a dragon, a woman, and a child—a prophetic narrative that defines all of human history and is manifesting before our very eyes. Key Insights You’ll Discover: Israel’s miraculous existence—why this nation’s survival defies logic and stands as a living testament to God’s divine hand. Prophecy unfolding in real-time—how ancient enemies foretold in scripture are reemerging and influencing today’s Middle Eastern and global conflicts.

On March 8, 1963, the Baath party overthrew the government of Syria, and since then the Assad family has ruled the country—until last weekend, when the son of Hafez al-Assad, Bashar al-Assad, fled to Russia. The 60-year Baathist domination of Syria came to an end, deposed by a Sunni Islamist organization called Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS).   Whereas many current conversations are, appropriately, focused on the military and political revolution that Syrians are now living through, the ideological revolution deserves equal consideration. There is no way of knowing how long the current government in Syria, or the Syrian state as we know it, will endure. We don't know if the new regime will be just and serve its people well, or whether it will be corrupt and tyrannical. We don't know how Syria will relate to the West, to America, or to Israel. But by recovering the ideological genealogy of Baathism, from which Syria's present rulers fought to free their country, we can begin to try to understand Arab politics the way that Arab intellectuals do. To that end, Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver is joined by Hussein Aboubakr Mansour, a writer, student of the modern Middle East, and senior fellow at the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs.

With the collapse of the Assad regime, the Separation of Forces Agreement from 1974 between Israel and Syria has also collapsed. Israel quickly moved military forces into the buffer zone in Syrian territory, including capturing the Syrian peak of the Hermon Mountain ridge. Israel says it’s temporary until a suitable arrangement is found. Retired Ambassador Alan Baker, a former legal adviser to the Israeli foreign ministry and today the head of the legal division of the Jerusalem Center for Foreign and Security Affairs, said the Syrian side was open to military or terrorist groups who want to take over. He told reporter Arieh O’Sullivan that the 50-year-old mandate of the UN observers in the buffer zone on the Golan Heights is up by the end of the year and the security council will have to decide whether to extend it.

Recorded on Thursday, November 21, 2024, in the wake of the announcement by the International Criminal Court that arrest warrants have been issued for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, I sought out the insights and expertise of renowned legal scholar Professor Avi Bell, in order to gain his insights into this dreadful development, and to bring his conclusion to you by way of this conversation. Professor Avi Bell is a member of the Faculty of Law at Bar Ilan University and the University of San Diego School of Law. His fields of academic research include property and intellectual property law, international law, the laws of war, and the Arab-Israeli conflict. Professor Bell is considered one of the leading researchers in Israel in the field of economic analysis of law, and he is a member of the Israeli Law & Economics Association as well as the American Law & Economics Association. His papers have been published in leading law journals including Yale Law Journal, Stanford Law Review and Columbia Law Review. Bell received his BA and JD from the University of Chicago and his doctorate from Harvard University. He was director of the Global Law Forum at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs from 2008-2009.I hope you get as much out of this conversation as I did and I encourage you to spread this discussion far and wide.

Hezbollah released a video over the weekend flaunting a massive tunnel network with precision rockets and underground launch sites. It came amid lingering threats that Hezbollah would retaliate for the killing of its top military commander last month. Dr. Jacques Neriah, a senior researcher at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs and a former policy adviser to prime minister Yitzhak Rabin, said that the revelation was a move to deter Israel from attacking it. He told reporter Arieh O'Sullivan that Hezbollah was more keen on destroying Israel than preserving Lebanon and that an agreement with it wasn't likely.

The International Court of Justice declared in a non-binding ruling on Friday that Israel's presence in East Jerusalem and the West Bank is illegal and must end "as rapidly as possible." In its decision, the ICJ determined Israel's settlement policy in violation of international law and said it amounts to de-facto annexation. KAN reporter Naomi Segal asked retired ambassador Alan Baker, a former legal adviser of Israel's foreign ministry, and currently head of the international  law program at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs what legal or other consequences there could be from the opinion.

The ups and downs of US arms deliveries to Israel is not new. It's been going on for over 50 years as the US became Israel's main weapons supplier. The latest conflagration involves, as far as we know, shipments of 2,000 pound and 500 pound bombs with JDAM kits (joint Direct Attack Munitions) that provide dumb bombs with precision guidance.  To give us some insight into this we turned to Lenny Ben David, director of American Institute at the Jerusalem Center for Foreign Affairs, and former deputy Israeli ambassador to Washington.

IDF forces were operating in central Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip this week, as the military released initial findings indicating that a fire that caused Palestinian civilian casualties following an earlier strike on two Hamas commanders was likely ignited by a secondary explosion of munitions belonging to the terror group.  Brig. Gen. (Res.)

Alan Baker, a former ambassador to Canada and legal adviser to the Foreign Ministry, said that the transformation of Canada from a staunch supporter of Israel to a country that imposes an arms sale embargo on the Jewish state at a time of war, was due to the increasing pressure from the influx of migrants and others who oppose Israel.

Easter is the most significant holiday on the Christian calendar, celebrated in solemnity and song, pageantry and prayer, rituals and rejoicing, “hosannas and hallelujahs.” While members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe deeply in Christ's resurrection, they have not participated as a church with the rest of Christendom in immersive traditions like waving palms on Palm Sunday, washing feet on Maundy Thursday or carrying a large cross for Good Friday. So, many Latter-day Saints have joined with other Christians on these holy practices. Last year, though, top Latter-day Saint leaders encouraged members to find ways to better commemorate the sacred moment when they believe Jesus rose from the dead. Eric Huntsman, a Brigham Young University professor of ancient scripture, has spent his career reading biblical texts in their original languages. Last year, Huntsman, who is currently on hiatus from his position as academic director at BYU's Jerusalem Center, co-wrote a book with Trevan Hatch, “Greater Love Hath No Man: A Latter-day Saint Guide to Celebrating the Easter Season.” As many Christians prepare for next week's Lent, Huntsman offers other tips on how Latter-day Saint individuals and families can better remember the “climax of the gospel story.”

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, President Biden created this situation in Israel by letting Iran and Hamas out of the cage that the Trump Administration put them in. President Trump showed American strength by taking out Qasem Soleimani and Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and drew a real red line that was respected, and that all went away with the Biden Administration. Biden rebuilt Iran's military and put tens of millions of dollars in their bank accounts, and now Iran is using Hamas to attack Israel. A U.S. District Judge has ruled that the U.S. government knew that the Biden Administration funneled American tax dollars into the hands of Palestinian terror groups. Israel has every right to throw everything it has at the barbarians that attacked them, and it is not their responsibility to accommodate the media or the people who voted for Hamas. Also, Mark speaks with Dan Diker, President of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, to expose the terror affiliation of the Students for Justice in Palestine. Students for Justice is not a grassroots student organization; it is a terror-affiliated anti-Semitic network that currently operates with autonomy and impunity at colleges and universities across the United States. Later, Mark talks with Congressman Michael Waltz about the terrorist activities in Israel and the Biden Administration's involvement in helping groups like Hamas. Finally, Mark is joined by Fox News host Bret Baier to discuss Israel's fight and his new book To Rescue the Constitution: George Washington and the Fragile American Experiment.
