Send us a textMany beauty queens dream of world peace, but few literally go out and do it. Noa Cochva was crowned Miss Israel 2021 and represented Israel at Miss Universe 2021, yet just a couple of years later she found herself in uniform again fighting for Israel in the wake of the horrors of the October 7th massacre. When it comes to fighting for Israel, Noa knows what it means to be on the front lines and now also serves as an activist for the country, taking to the streets of America, where she has been pummeled by protestors and threatened at knife point, just for the crime of standing up for Israel. Eylon sits down with Noa to discuss her work and to ask what a beauty queen can do to help Israel win the PR battle as this war rages on. Co-Creator and Host - Eylon LevyCo-Creator and Creative Director - Guy RossExecutive Producer - Asher Westropp-EvansDirector - Lotem SegevGraphics/Assistant Director - Thomas GirschEditor/Assistant Director - Benny GoldmanStay up to date at:https://www.stateofanationpodcast.com/X: https://twitter.com/stateofapodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/stateofapod/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?...

David Harris is joined by Sarah Idan, Miss Iraq, 2017, for a wide-ranging discussion on her controversial selfie with Miss Israel at the 2017 Miss Universe pageant and its far-reaching ramifications, as well as current issues pertaining to Israel.

Noa Cochva has fought for Israel in a multitude of ways. As a soldier, she served as a combat medic, including for five months on the Gaza border post-October 7. As an activist, she works tirelessly to spread the truth about Israel amidst a sea of antisemitism. And as the former Miss Israel, she represented her country on the international stage. Host Steven Shalowitz sits down with Cochva to discuss her advocacy work, her experience on the Gaza border, and being assaulted by pro-Palestinian protesters in Times Square.

La talentosa actriz y guionista de cine, Gal Gadot Varsano, destacó en el papel principal de la superheroína The Wonder Woman, estrenada en 2017 y producida por DC Films. Gal Gadot nació en 1985 en la ciudad de Petaj Tikvá, en el distrito central de Israel y se ha consolidado como una de las actrices más reconocidas del gremio. Gadot cumplió con dos años de servicio militar obligatorio en el ejército de Israel, es abogada graduada de la Universidad Reichman y madre de cuatro hijas. En el 2004 fue coronada Miss Israel, llegando a representar a su país en Miss Universo a la edad de 18 años, lo que marcó el inicio de su carrera en el mundo del modelaje. Antes de asumir roles protagónicos en el cine, Gadot participó en series televisivas y en películas como la saga Rápidos y Furiosos, y  "Batman Vs Superman: El origen de la justicia". Desde el principio, Gadot ha expresado su preocupación por cómo se retrata a las mujeres en los medios de comunicación, particularmente en el cine de acción, siendo pionera en rechazar escenas que considera innecesariamente sexualizadas o que perpetúan estereotipos de género. Además de su posición contra la sexualización en los medios, Gal Gadot es reconocida por el orgullo hacia su herencia israelí. Aunque su posición política y su identidad nacional pueden generar controversia en ciertos círculos, Gadot ha defendido sus creencias con convicción y ha utilizado su plataforma para promover la comprensión y el diálogo sobre cuestiones relacionadas con su país y el conflicto en Oriente Medio. Su éxito en el cine la llevó a ser la primera actriz israelí en recibir una estrella en el Paseo de la Fama de Hollywood. Con más de 109 millones de seguidores en sus redes sociales, pronto la veremos en su próximo papel protagónico, interpretando a Cleopatra VII, la última faraona de Egipto.

This is Sarah Idan's story, Sarai more informally and publicly. She used to enter beauty pageants “to help bring people together”. But as Iraq's winning Miss Universe in 2017, she got much more than she bargained for. Sarai's new life as a renowned Human Rights campaigner started there and then, when she took a selfie with Adar Gandelsman, participating alongside her as Miss Israel. All hell let loose back home as the Iraqi tourism ministry ordered her to take the selfie down, “because it was harming the Palestinian cause“.  “I said, what?”, Sarai replied and in that moment knew her feeling as an outsider even at home, was being realised. The flurry of events which followed saw her family flee Baghdad and join her in a new life in California.  Her Iraqi citizenship has been revoked, and she knows full well if she ever returned there, “I'd be killed in the airport”. Sarai now uses her fame and notoriety to push against despotism and terror. She's represented Hillel Neuer's UN Watch in Geneva and as you'll hear in this characteristically fearless discussion, she's a champion of combating racism, prejudice and anti-Zionism among her own people, Arabs and Muslims.  She describes herself as a Zionist despite growing up around the incessant antisemitic echo chambers of Baghdad. Sarai is a lover of music and chose the theme tune for this episode, a stirring and emotional opus by Rachmaninov, “Symphony No. 2 Opus 27 III. Adagio” by the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra - conducted by Vladimir Ashkenazy. The contrast between the music and her early life is rather striking. She is the CEO of an NGO called Humanity4Ward and has a podcast, The Sarai Talk Show”. Jonny Gould's Jewish State is always thankful for the support of Dangoor Education.

When I was a teenager, you could tell a girl was going steady by the fuzzy ring around her neck. And when our son started going with a girl, she just got his jacket; football jacket - the one he earned with blood, sweat, tears, and my money. But you could tell this girl was going with my son; the jacket had his name on it. I have to tell you though, it was slightly amusing. See, my son was a big lineman. She swam in that coat! And she wasn't the only one. We had a lot of girls in our school who were dating athletes, and they wore their jackets as a symbol, "Hey, I belong to him. He's mine." But it didn't look that great on most of them. No. You know, wearing what a man gives you for security may not be the best fit for you. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "When Love Lets You Down." Our word for today from the Word of God. We're in Genesis 29. Let me give you some background. Jacob has worked seven years to earn Rachel's hand. He didn't realize until he lifted the veil on his wedding night he'd been deceived. He had married the sister, Leah, who was not Miss America or Miss Israel. So he had to work seven more years to get Rachel, the one he really wanted. Now he's got two wives. The Bible says, "Rachel he loved. Leah was unloved by him." But Leah, like every woman, had a very deep love hunger. I read now from our word for today from the Word of God, Genesis 29:31. "When the Lord saw that Leah was not loved, He opened her womb. But Rachel was barren. Leah became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She named him Reuben, for she said, 'It is because the Lord has seen my misery. Surely my husband will love me now.'" Interesting isn't it? She's looking to this man for the love and the identity she needs and she's coming up empty. Well, then, she finally has another baby. And it says in verse 34, "Again she conceived, and when she gave birth to a son she said, 'Now at last my husband will become attached to me, because I have born him three sons.' So he was named Levi. Again the man does not give her what she needs. Finally in verse 35, "She conceived again, and when she gave birth to a son she said, 'This time I will praise the Lord.'" See, Leah had hoped to find her identity in Jacob's love. She didn't get it. But finally, after three times of counting on a baby to secure her man's attention, she refocuses her love hunger from Jacob to Jehovah; from her husband to her Heavenly Father. There's many a woman who has been disappointed by a man. There's frustration, there's bitterness. If you're a woman, maybe you've been hurt by a father whose love or approval you could never seem to win, or maybe a boyfriend or a husband has let you down like Jacob did with Leah. Or maybe you've been abused, betrayed, or abandoned. It could be you've had positive relationships with the men in your life but they still haven't been able to be all you need. Leah, like so many women, was looking at the wrong place for identity. No woman was ever meant to derive her identity and worth from the approval of a man. She said, "I'm going to turn to the Lord." Maybe that's what He's asking of you. The jacket that reflected some of my son's identity didn't fit the woman in his life. She was never meant to find her identity in being his girl. Every woman is headed for disappointment and chronic insecurity if she's trying to define herself by some man in her world. It's a liberating day when you discover that no man could do for your worth what the Lord can do. He loved Leah; her man didn't. He gave her His divine blessing when her man wouldn't give his. Learn from Leah. Don't waste time trying to find your identity in the fickle, fragile love or approval of people. Look beyond them to the Lord. Start drawing on Him for all you need. You're a unique masterpiece creation of a loving God. In fact, you were worth dying for. What you get from any man is just a bonus. Maybe you've never experienced the love of Jesus for yourself. Tell Him today, "Jesus, I'm yours." Our website, I think, will help you get started with Him. It's ANewStory.com. Be sure that you bring your love hunger to the only One who will never disappoint you. He is your Savior. He is your Shepherd. He is Jesus Christ.

Gal Gadot's name pronunciation with an Israeli accent is quite different from how most English speakers pronounce it. And now that Wonder Woman 1984 is OUT, let's talk about how to pronounce Gal Gadot's name correctly. As an Israeli, I can't ignore the fact that the way English speakers pronounce her name is quite different than how we pronounce it in Hebrew. So today I'll teach you how to speak with an ISRAELI ACCENT But I'll also mention why I think Gal is so awesome when it comes to English. Also, a few fun facts about Gal: Her first name means ‘wave' and her last name means ‘riverbanks' Gal Gadot is her REAL name When she was 18 she was ‘Miss Israel' When she lived in Tel Aviv we lived 10 minutes away from each other Samara Bay, a good friend and a guest on my channel was Gal Gadot's dialect coach on WW1984 I have yet to find someone who does a really good impression of Gal and her pronunciation. For example, this doesn't sound like an Israeli Accent to me: https://youtu.be/7Nv1KoqM6vc In general I haven't found anyone pulling off a REALLY good Israeli accent. If you know of someone, let me know in the comments. Even though I coached most of Gal's Israel actor-friends, I never got to personally work with Gal To watch the video version of the episode and check out the full clips shown in the video, go here: https://hadarshemesh.com/magazine/how-to-pronounce-gal-gadots-name/ More useful episodes:?

Titi Aynaw is a top Israeli model, former Miss Israel, television personality, Israel advocate and community leader. In 2013 she became the first Israeli-Ethiopian to win the Miss Israel title, opening the door for other Ethiopian models and causing advertisers to reassess their attitudes towards black models. She had never modeled previously and was unknowingly entered into the beauty competition by a high school friend. The win brought pride to the Ethiopian community and she is considered one of their leading role-models and spokespeople. During his first Presidential visit to Israel in 2013, Barack Obama personally invited her to attend a state dinner at President Shimon Peres' residence. Titi represented Israel in the Miss Universe contest in Moscow that year placing 17th overall. In addition, she traveled extensively to share her extraordinary life story with both Jewish, Gentile and African-American audiences. Titi has a successful modeling career working on leading campaigns in Israel, Europe and the United States. In 2016 she spent two months on an island in Honduras competing for the Israeli version of Survivor where she placed second. Born in Gondar province of Ethiopia, Titi always dreamed of moving to Israel. Her father died when she was a toddler, and when she was 12 her mother died as well after a long illness. Titi and her brother moved to Israel soon after and lived with their grandparents in Netanya. She studied at a high school for religious girls near Haifa and was elected President of the student council there. She recently founded and helps fund the "Titi Project" which provides extracurricular activities and enrichment to 66 Ethiopian kids from disadvantaged backgrounds in Netanya. She hopes to expand the project and help give other kids educational opportunities that she lacked growing-up. Titi served in the Israel Defense Forces as Company Commander with the rank of Lieutenant. After completing officer's training she joined the Military Police and had up to 300 men and women under her command. At time of writing, Titi is in New York City working on her modeling career, having taken a leave of absence from the IDC University in Hertziliya where she studies international relations. In this episode, Titi shares her remarkable one way ticket journey from an orphan in Ethiopia to becoming Miss Israel 2013, representing the country she had dreamed of moving to. Plus, Titi recalls meeting President Obama, what it was like competing on the Israeli version of Survivor (where she came in second) and the special behind-the- scenes friendships forged at the Miss Universe pageant. Titi is just one of the extraordinary guests featured on The One Way Ticket Show, where Host Steven Shalowitz explores with his guests where they'd go if given a one way ticket, no coming back! Destinations may be in the past, present, future, real, imaginary or a state of mind. Steven's guests have included: Nobel Peace Prize Winner, President Jose Ramos-Horta; Legendary Talk Show Host, Dick Cavett; Law Professor, Alan Dershowitz; Broadcast Legend, Charles Osgood; International Rescue Committee President & CEO, David Miliband; Grammar Girl, Mignon Fogarty; Journalist-Humorist-Actor Mo Rocca; ; Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz, Jr.; Abercrombie & Kent Founder, Geoffrey Kent; Travel Expert, Pauline Frommer, as well as leading photographers, artists, writers and more.

This week’s episode of IsraelCast is a special one, recorded live this month at our 2017 National Conference in South Florida! Steven speaks in front of a live audience with the multi-faceted Titi Aynaw – a top Israeli model, television personality, Israel advocate and community leader. She became the first Israeli Ethiopian to win the Miss Israel title back in 2013. Just last year, she placed second in the Israeli version of the T.V. show Survivor, which took place in Honduras. She recently founded and helps fund the Titi project, which provides extracurricular activities and enrichment to 66 Ethiopian children in Netanya, and she hopes to expand the project and give other kids opportunities that she lacked growing up. Here, she talks about her journey through life and what is yet to come.
