Podcasts about operation protective edge

On Sunday, January 19th, 2025, Romi Gonen (24), Emily Damari (28) and Doron Steinbrecher (31), were reunited with their loved ones inside Israel.In this episode, I'm joined by Yaakov Lappin, In-House-Analyst at The MirYam Institute, to discuss their redemption from inside the Gaza Strip. We break down our reactions to the images of their release - including the danger in which they were placed as they were transferred from one Red-Cross vehicle to the other, surrounded by thousands of Gazans inside Gaza - the terms of the hostage-release deal as they pertain to the redeployment of the IDF, and the sacrifices made by our soldiers in order to bring us to this moment.We also note the rescue of the remains of Oron Shaul (Z"L), who was killed and held captive by Hamas during Operation Protective Edge in 2014, and we discuss the implications of the ceasefire on the near and long-term security of the State of Israel.Support the showThe MirYam Institute.

Donation Link: Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign: http://www.ipsc.ie/support/donateThis episode takes a closer look at Khaled Juma's poignant poem, 'O Rascal Children of Gaza.' .Written in response to the violence during Operation Protective Edge in 2014, the poem heartbreakingly laments the loss of Gaza's children. The episode highlights the poem's structure, the use of juxtaposition between joyful past and sorrowful present, and its stark portrayal of the silence that follows tragedy. Juma's work is analysed for its simplicity and powerful emotional appeal, showcasing the resilience and grief of the Palestinian people. The poem stands as a testament to the devastating impact of conflict on innocent lives and the unyielding spirit of Palestinian resistance and identity.

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. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan on today's episode. Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah said Wednesday his Lebanese terror group would accept Palestinian ally Hamas's decision on Gaza hostage negotiations and would stop cross-border attacks on Israel if a ceasefire were reached. But would Israel also back down from the conflict on the north? This week marks a decade to Operation Protective Edge, which took place from July 8-August 26, 2014. Horovitz was on the ground in Gaza's Shejaiyiya neighborhood earlier this week and saw a location that one of the IDF officers he met with, Lt. Col. Ron Sayag, called a "closing of a circle" from that operation 10 years ago. What did Horovitz see inside the Strip? The results of an Israel Defense Forces probe into the onslaught and battle on October 7 in the border community of Kibbutz Be'eri, during which tanks shelled a house where Hamas was holding hostages, was presented to Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi on Monday and were given to residents of Be'eri this morning. Borschel-Dan and Horovitz were in Kibbutz Be'eri and Kfar Aza yesterday. They discuss their impressions. For news updates, please check out The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog. Discussed articles include: Nasrallah: If Hamas agrees to ceasefire with Israel, Hezbollah will also halt attacks Shejaiya is at least partly uninhabitable, but troops here say Hamas will return if it can IDF chief shown results of probe into October 7 fighting at Kibbutz Be'eri Subscribe to The Times of Israel Daily Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

404 - How will this war be seen by history?Israel has fought Hamas in Gaza over and over again. There was Operation Cast Lead in 2008, Operation Pillar of Defense in 2012, and Operation Protective Edge in 2014 just to name a few. Thousands of rockets have been launched at civilian areas of Israel and Israel has counter attacked over and over again. Will the current war, Operation Swords of Iron be just another battle in this long running war? Or will this war be remembered as a moment of change in Israel and the region? Matt hosts this episode's debate, where Alan takes the position that this is a major turning point in Israeli History, and Calev argues that this will be another round in our long battles with Hamas. Am Yisrael Chai!

Joining me today is political scientist and author, Norman Finkelstein. We will be talking about Operation Protective Edge, Israel's attacks on Gaza, Israeli propaganda & Jewish opposition to the war in Gaza.

Eve Harow speaks with Netanyahu's former chief of staff (and her nephew), Ari Harow (ariharow@gmail.com), on his new book ‘My Brother's Keeper: Netanyahu, Obama and the Year of Terror and Conflict that changed the Middle East Forever.' Originally written as a historical look at Israel in 2014 from someone who was at the time on the very inside of Israeli politics, the timing of the book's release gives a deeper perspective and needed context on what's happening in Israel since October 7th. The relationship with the US, internal Israeli issues and challenges, the wider focus on Iran and global Islamic Jihad are all there. Hamas's kidnapping of the 3 boys set off a chain of events, including Operation Protective Edge in Gaza in 2014, which ended without a clear victory. And here we are today. This is an important and unique book and a must read for those searching for an understanding of critical decisions that were made nearly a decade ago that impact all of us in the present.

October 18, 2023 ~ Benjamin Anthony, former combat reservist in the IDF and served during the Second Lebanon War, Operation Pillar of Defense, and Operation Protective Edge, also the co-founder and CEO of the MirYam Institute, joins Kevin and Tom live from Tel Aviv ahead of the President's remarks there.

Today we discuss the Torah perspective on a practical vision for unity. I've heard several people over the past few days express the sentiment that perhaps the devastating situation we're in is in someway related to the recent growing fracture in our nation. I'm in no position to diagnose the situation neither from a practical-political perspective not from a divine-spiritual perspective. However, having been in Israel during Operation Protective Edge, I saw first hand how war has the power to bring us together.

In this installment of Best Of The Gist, during Mike's interview with Tablet Editor In Chief Alana Newhouse, which aired this past week, they discussed what's going on in social media in the days after Hamas attacked and killed over a thousand Israelis. Israel has since retaliated, killing at least as many Palestinians. Then we listen back to Mike's 2014 interview with Dr. Dalia Gavriely-Nuri from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. She offered translations and insight into Israeli operation names such as Operation Protective Edge (2014)and Operation Pillar of Defense (2012). Israel has named its ongoing response to the Hamas October 7th attack Operation Swards of Iron.

In the wake of Israel's recent armed conflict with Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), the Gaza-based Islamist terrorist group, the Jewish State has once again faced accusations of excessive force relating to its conduct. But beyond the often hyperbolic headlines, Israel's practices in conflict are widely seen in military circles as representing among the highest levels of morality seen anywhere in the world. To help us understand more, in this week's edition of The Honest Report podcast, we sit down with Sgt. Benjamin Anthony, Co-Founder, and CEO of The MirYam Institute. Sgt. Anthony is a widely sought-after speaker around the world, known for his breadth of knowledge relating to Israel's conduct in wartime. Most notably, Sgt. Anthony is a veteran of the Second Lebanon War in 2006, Operation Pillar of Defense in 2012, and Operation Protective Edge in 2014.

In 2017, Ismail Ziada filed a civil suit at the District Court of the Hague against former Israeli military leaders Benny Gantz and Amir Eshel for their role in a 2014 strike—part of the Israeli offensive in Gaza known as Operation Protective Edge—which killed six of Ziada's family members. In 2020, the court dismissed Ziada's civil suit, arguing that, as agents of the state, Gantz and Eshel enjoy functional immunity from prosecution, and the court had no jurisdiction over the matter.Now, the Dutch court hearing his appeal has until Dec. 7 to decide whether the international legal principle of universal jurisdiction will allow him to pursue his case from the Netherlands, an enormous step forward for Palestinians trying to seek justice in Israel, where they're prohibited from addressing cases or appeals against Israel for war crimes and acts of war. TRNN contributor David Kattenburg talks to Ziada's lawyer, Liesbeth Zegveld, about this case and what it could mean for those seeking international justice by way of local jurisdictions.Read the transcript of this interview: https://therealnews.com/a-dutch-court-may-help-deliver-justice-for-a-gazan-family-killed-in-an-israeli-strikeHelp us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer: Donate: https://therealnews.com/donate-podSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/newsletter-podLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealnewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnews

Israel's Chief Rabbis issued a letter accusing The International Christian Embassy Jerusalem (ICEJ) of seeking to convert Jews at its annual week-long Feast of Tabernacles celebration. The celebration has been hosted by the ICEJ since 1980 when they opened their embassy, and draws thousands of Christians from around the world in support of Israel. The 2014 festival, held in the wake of Operation Protective Edge, attracted 5,000 Christians from 80 different countries. “It has come to our attention that those engaged in missionary activity under the auspices of the Christian Embassy in Israel are organizing a large conference during the days of Sukkot,” Rabbi David Lau and Rabbi Yitzchak Yosef wrote. “Part of this organization's goals is to convert Jews from the religion of Israel and bring them under the wings of Christianity. Such a thing is severe and contrary to the foundations of our faith, and as such must be condemned and the public must be warned.” --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/yaar-ben-emmett/support

Here to discuss his novel "Under the Stretcher," it allows readers to learn what life is like for an Israeli soldier today. For those who want to learn more about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, this book offers personal stories from an American-raised boy, with American values, who served in the modern Israeli army. "Under the Stretcher" takes you into the 2014 “Operation Protective Edge,” the latest of the Gaza-Israeli conflicts, through the eyes of Max Levin, who immigrated in 2012 to join the Israeli army. This book takes you step-by-step on his journey as he immigrates to Israel, learns Hebrew, and goes through many grueling try-outs to finally make it into one of Israel’s special forces units – Palchan Tzanhanim. He was then immediately thrust into this war, where he found himself fighting for his newfound friends and family. Max then had to cope with the aftermath of the war, the mourning of lost ones, and the psychological changes from being a soldier at war to a soldier at peace, trying to keep all parties safe and sound within in the dangerous West Bank. To learn more about Israel’s latest war, this book provides detailed descriptions from both the front lines and behind enemy lines, looking at some of the vital operations that unfold during the war.

The current Israeli offensive against Palestine in 2021 began on 10 May, making it the deadliest offensive since The Gaza war of 2014, named Operation Protective Edge. Since that date, Palestine’s death toll exceeds 200, mostly women and children, while Israel’s is currently around 10 – also including women and children. There have been mass solidarity protests across the world, and on today’s program we will bring you some highlights from the Melbourne Rally. We are going to start here with Janine Haroum, a Palestinian woman at the Melbourne rally, and then later in the program, an interview with Palestinian woman, socialist and educator, Reem Yunis

We Hold These Truths has released our, 29 minute, award winning documentary for free viewing.  Out of 700 international films submitted to the 4th Ammar Popular Film Festival in Tehran, Iran,  in January, 2014, our film, Christian Zionism: The Tragedy & The Turning, Part 1, has been given a special award along with two other documentaries.  This  film exposes what should be three, obvious truths:  1. The US has a war based economy that is dependent upon the support for its many wars by Christians under the influence of Christian Zionism.  2. Christian Zionism is a corruption of traditional Christianity that has been promoted for just over 100 years, through the Scofield Reference Bible. 3. The Palestinians have been under a brutal military occupation by Israel since 1967.  An example of this brutality was an Israeli attack on Gaza that killed four and wounded 40 in 2002, that was  witnessed, videoed and reported by Charles E. Carlson, the Writer/Director of this documentary.  This attack was four years before Hamas came to power and 12 years before Israel's current attack on Gaza, "Operation Protective Edge." This planned operation has turned into a genocidal assault on Gaza with the Israelis bombing hospitals and schools, and civilian casualties hovering around 75%, while destroying the infrastructure of the world's largest, open air prison (Bob Simon of CBS News described Gaza this way in 2009 in an interview with Charlie Rose).

Ein Verbrechen, dessen Sühnung Deutschland versucht zu verhindern. Ein Standpunkt von Jochen Mitschka. Am 8. Juli 2014 begann Israel mit der Operation Protective Edge. Die Kriegsverbrechen, welche im Verlauf dieses Angriffskrieges gegen den militärisch weit unterlegenen, und unter ständiger Belagerung stehenden Gaza-Streifen insbesondere durch die Israelischen Besatzungssoldaten begangen wurden, sollen, unter anderem, vom Internationalen Strafgerichtshof in Den Haag nun, nach jahrelangem Zögern, untersucht werden. Die Zerstörung der Bombardierungen durch Israel war so dramatisch, dass Ken Roth von Amnesty International die Bilder der Zerstörung benutzt hatte, um sie in seinem Feldzug gegen Syrien einzusetzen, und zu behaupten, dass sie die Folge von Fassbomben gewesen wären. Und im Jahr 2019 wurden die Bilder noch einmal benutzt, nämlich um Wahlwerbung in einer Parlamentswahl zu machen, in der die Hauptprotagonisten sich dabei zu übertreffen suchten, welche Vernichtung sie den Palästinensern in Zukunft zufügen würden. Nicht nur Israel und die USA, sondern auch Deutschland haben sich nun vehement gegen eine solche Untersuchung des IStGH ausgesprochen. Diese Länder versuchen nach wie vor, die Untersuchung zu verhindern, Sanktionen und Drohungen dürften erst der Anfang einer Kampagne gegen den Gerichtshof sein. ... weiterlesen hier: https://kenfm.de/das-gaza-massaker-vom-8-juli-2014-i-von-jochen-mitschka Jetzt KenFM unterstützen: https://www.patreon.com/KenFMde https://de.tipeee.com/kenfm https://flattr.com/@KenFM Dir gefällt unser Programm?

In this Interview Khalil Bendib talks with the Israeli scholar Ilan Pappé about his book "On Palestine" which he co-authored with Noam Chomsky. Published in the aftermath of Israel's offensive on Gaza known as "Operation Protective Edge" which left thousands of Palestinians dead and cleared the way for another Israeli land grab. Khalil asks Pappe about where he agrees and disagrees with Chomsky, the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement and the comparisons with apartheid in South Africa.

Podcaster John Metaxas interviews veteran civil rights attorney Robert Herbst about his journey from growing up in a liberal Jewish household to becoming an advocate for Palestinian rights. Bob says just as “Black Lives Matter in the U.S., Palestinian lives matter in Israel/Palestine.” He says his viewpoint changed significantly after what he calls Israel’s brutal 2014 Operation Protective Edge in Gaza. He became a member of the organization Jewish Voice for Peace. He describes the Israeli occupation of the West Bank as persistent and relentless oppression, which he likens to apartheid. He says he supports the Boycott Divest Sanction movement as a non-violent means to help Israel recover its Jewish values.

Palestinian academic Dr. Yaser Alashqar went home to Gaza as soon as the Israeli slaughter there ended, and collected eyewitness reports from people on the ground, as well as himself bearing witness to the devastation wrought upon the population of 1.8 million people. In this meeting he presented images and testimony to the brutality of the onslaught, and discussed many issues from the politics of reconstruction and the seemingly treacherous role of the UN, to internal Palestinian divisions, to the new phenomenon of Palestinian families and individuals migrating from Gaza in large numbers. Dr. Alashqar will also spoke about ways in which Palestinians are continuing to resist Israeli occupation, apartheid and colonisation, and how international civil society can help achieve justice and lasting peace in the region. The recent Israeli attack, called Operation Protective Edge, killed over 2,000 Palestinians and injured thousands more. According to the latest UN report, of those killed, 69% were civilians including 495 children and 253 women. It is estimated that €8b will be needed to rebuild the infrastructure in Gaza following the six weeks or relentless bombing and shelling by Israeli occupation forces. This includes the many schools, hospitals and water and power plants that were destroyed or severely damaged. About the speaker: Yaser Alashqar is a Palestinian academic from Gaza residing in Ireland. His expertise includes conflict issues, human rights, Gaza and Israeli-Palestinian politics. He has taught courses in these areas at the Marino Institute of Education and Trinity College Dublin, and has also worked with various NGOs in Ireland and Britain. The meeting was organsied by the Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign.

The Reaction of Britain’s Universities and Trade Unions to Operation Protective Edge - Ronnie Fraser Director, Academic Friends of Israel

llison, Don, and Noah discuss three topics of incomparable importance, and end with an anecdote each about something in Israel that made them smile this week. The United States of Israel? Could 'Cantonization' save Israel? We discuss a proposal to slice and dice Israel into small ethnically and ideologically defined localities that would each have laws that better fit their populations. Would such a system benefit Israel's minorities? The great media parallax The coverage of Operation Protective Edge this summer looked very different on Israeli TV screens compared to American or European ones. Why is this, and should something be done to change Israeli media coverage of regional events? Calamari is kosher, right? Why did PM Netanyahu feel compelled to make this dubious statement to a journalist recently: "I do not eat unkosher foods"? Is the legitimacy of being an out-and-out secular politician diminishing? Is this a sign that secular Judaism is on the retreat? Playlist: All songs by the anarchic genius of 'Old Man River' (whom you can call Ohad Rein): Amazing Grace La You’re On My Mind Shanti Aaye

Today's guests are an inspiration. Amidst all the bad news we're bombarded with each day, it's uplifting to hear from people who have sacrificed to help others in danger. Rebecca Siegel and Ariella Applebaum are American college students who have spent many months in Israel, as volunteer medics for Magen David Adom, the emergency ambulance service that saves lives of people of all faiths. Their stay included service during Operation Protective Edge. As you can hear in their voices, they not only helped others, but were moved themselves, after these life changing experiences, to fill shoes bigger than they'd ever dreamed. Erik Levis, Communications Director for American Friends of Magen David Adom, describes this overseas volunteer program and the invaluable work of MDA.

On this editon of The Israel Show, Meir presented a moving Rosh Hashana message from Racheli Frankel, mother of Naftali HYD. He was the guy that movies are made of. Remembering Israeli super spy, Mossad agent, Mike Harrari, who passed away yesterday. A new and surprising rendition of an Israeli classic - ba'sha'na ha'ba'ah written during Operation Protective Edge, and inspiring Israeli music appropriate for the upcoming yamim noraim.

Host Noah Efron conducts a very special interview with a conscientious objector, and we pull together our favorite 'Vatacountry' segments. Acts of conscience: Summer in the slammer Noah interviews IDF reservist Gilad Halpern, who spent the summer in a military jail for conscientiously objecting to his call-up during Operation Protective Edge. How does conscientious objection in Israel map onto the political landscape? Acts of love: 'Vatacountry' best bits A personal reflection by podcast listener Andrew Wirth on art, freedom of expression, and the army in Israel; plus some of our favorite 'Vatacountry' segments about life in this infuriating country that, at the end of the day, we cannot help but love.

With a ceasefire now in place in Gaza, the Israeli government faces a simple question: what exactly did Operation Protective Edge achieve? For all the death and destruction in Gaza, has Israel's position been strengthened or weakened? Stephen Sackur speaks to Israel's Minister of Intelligence, Yuval Steinitz. Does Israel need a strategic rethink?Picture: Yuval Steinitz talks to Stephen Sackur, Credit: BBC

This Israeli tee shirt appeared after "Operation Cast Lead" in 2009 where over 300 Palestinian children were killed in Gaza.  We don't know what the Hebrew says, but the message reflects "A Society of Death" mentality in Israel that is explored in this podcast.  Israel's latest installment of collective punishment, "Operation Protective Edge" has resulted in over 500 children killed, a total of over 2000 killed, over 10,000 injured, over 100,000 homeless and massive damage to Gaza's infrastructure.  Also, In this podcast, Chuck Carlson looks at the planned genocide against Gaza advocated by leading Israeli politicians and the ineffective Hamas rockets that Israel uses to justify its punitive actions.

No matter how much the Zionist state of Israel's propaganda machine, our cowardly US president, Congress and main stream media try to cover up its brutal and punitive attack on Gaza, more and more people are finding out the truth that Israel's actions are barbaric. This video was taken from a rally held in Texas to support Palestinians and oppose Israel's genocidal actions in "Operation Protective Edge." Rania Masri eloquently enumerates Israel's acts of barbarism to the crowd.

Are all civilians are automatically innocent? Today on The Gist, host Mike Pesca debates a Wall Street Journal op-ed from Thane Rosenbaum, Senior Fellow and Director of the NYU Forum on Law, Culture & Society. Plus, Dr. Dalia Gavriely-Nuri from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, offers translations and insight into Israeli operation names such as Operation Protective Edge and Operation Pillar of Defense.

The carnage continues in Gaza, where some neighborhoods are strewn with the bodies of Palestinians, and a hospital has been shelled. We'll get a report from the ground and get different perspectives on how long Israel's “Operation Protective Edge” might go on.

Asma weeps at the funeral of her brother, Gomha Abu Shalouf [Killed by the IDF in Operation Protective Edge - 7/8/2014] Image: AP/Press Association ImagesMany Grandmothers in America aren't aware of the collective punishment being unmercifully committed against the Palestinians in Gaza during Israel's latest planned assault, "Operation Protective Edge."  An estimated 75% of the casualties are civilians, with a large percentage being women and children. We try to answer a grandma who didn't think about the innocent children being killed when she parroted a question she learned from our media, "What about all the rockets Hamas launches? Doesn't Israel have a right to protect itself?"  It seems most Americans have lost the capacity to ask questions to challenge what they are being spoon fed by the US government, the main stream media and the Zionist lobby. In this program we look behind the curtain at the human tragedy side of Operation Protective Edge that should make a Grandma weep.

We Hold These Truths joined the Arizona State University chapter of Students For Justice In Palestine's rally held in Tempe, AZ to show support for the Palestinians in Gaza who are, for the third time in less than five years, being brutalized by Israel's latest supplement to their ongoing military occupation of Palestine...Operation Protective Edge.  These attacks by Israel demonstrate their affinity to making disproportional assaults against the Palestinians, and, Israel's collective punishment mentality.  You won't see this on FOX News!  So, please pass this four minute video report of the rally on to a friend. It, also, includes an appeal to the viewer to watch our award winning documentary, Christian Zionist: The Tragedy & The Turning, Part I.

(Isaiah 41;54) God's sovereign and protective grace among His people, Israel.
