Charlie Kirk, influential right-wing commentator and founder of Turning Point USA, was assassinated on September 10th. Since then, he has been made into a martyr on the right, and the Trump administration has vowed to crack down on the left, despite details about the shooter's motivation remaining hazy. Among liberals, there has been a baffling rush to hold Kirk up as a paragon of democracy—despite his participation in the attempt to overthrow the 2020 election—and to demonstrate their own grief at his death. In this episode, editor-in-chief Arielle Angel, contributing editor David Klion, assistant editor Maya Rosen, and contributor Ben Lorber, a researcher of antisemitism and white nationalism, discuss reactions to Kirk's assassination across the political landscape, the mostly imagined specter of left violence versus the reality, the meaning of Kirk's deification in Israel, and the ways reactions to his death have become a proxy for conversations about the genocide in Gaza.

On September 9, 2025, Israel Defense Forces struck inside Doha targeting members of the Hamas negotiating team. With the Israeli government appearing to reject any ceasefire despite the remaining hostages in Gaza, urgent questions emerge about the future of millions of Palestinians. Amid the crisis, a new book offers some clarity and context: "Tomorrow Is Yesterday: Life, Death, and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine" by Rob Malley and Hussein Agha. Drawing on decades of negotiations between the US, the Israeli government, and the representatives of the Palestinian people, the authors explore how we got here and what it could portend for the future.

Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with Daniel Gordis. Gordis, an author, scholar, rabbi, activist and sometime Times of Israel blogger, is the creator of the popular Substack blog and podcast, "Israel from the Inside." He recounts how he began the blog in 2021 to pull the curtain back on the Jewish state for those living abroad. In this episode, we discuss the evolution Gordis's decision to be a pro-Israel, yet critical voice in a tricky global environment of rising antisemitism and uncertainty. Wearing his rabbi hat, he speaks about how existential loneliness is a part of the experience of this season of High Holy Days and he further describes the loneliness of being Israeli at this time in history. Gordis challenges American Jews to consider that Israelis are fighting for their homeland -- both in Gaza and during the ongoing protests in the streets. And so this week, we ask Daniel Gordis, what matters now? What Matters Now podcasts are available for download on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts.

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe reflects on the tragic fatal shooting of conservative activist, and civil right icon, Charlie Kirk, a 31-year-old husband and father, during a speaking event at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025, describing it as a shocking manifestation of societal desensitization to violence and the silencing of opposing voices. Drawing from Genesis 4:2-10, he recounts Cain's murder of Abel due to jealousy over words, emphasizing that attempts to suppress differing opinions—whether through de-platforming or violence—fail, as God hears the "voice of blood from the ground." Rabbi Wolbe extends this to Genesis 37, where Joseph's brothers' hatred of his dreams leads to their plot against him, yet Judah advocates mercy over murder. He connects this to the current political climate, urging listeners to focus on commonalities rather than differences to foster love and unity, even amid disagreements. Acknowledging Kirk's non-Jewish but Shabbat-observing life and strong support for Israel, Rabbi Wolbe praises his inspiration for youth engagement and calls for public Jewish pride in Zionism and Shabbos observance. He warns against media desensitization to murder, stressing the need to protect one's neshama (soul) from such content, and concludes with a blessing for long lives of accomplishment, emphasizing the value of every moment, as no one is guaranteed eternity, and encourages maximizing good deeds without fame.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on September 12, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on September 14, 2025_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

IS ISRAEL A COLONIAL ENTITY? 1. Is Israel truly a colonial state?Many argue that Zionism is just another form of colonialism. But does Israel's history actually fit the definition of colonialism?2. Are the Jewish people indigenous to the land of Israel, or not?The answer to this question lies at the heart of the debate over legitimacy.3. Does Zionism amount to settler colonialism?Or is it something fundamentally different — a movement of national liberation?This claim appears often in activist circles. But does it survive contact with Israel's demographics and history?
In this discussion we talk with Professor Corinna Mullin who is a member of the Anti-Imperialist Scholars Collective. Corinna Mullin is an anti-imperialist academic who teaches political science and economics. Her research examines the historical legacies of colonialism and the role of capitalist expansion and imperialist imbrications in producing peripheral state “security dependency,” with a focus on unequal exchange, super-exploitation, resource extraction, and other forms of surplus value drain/transfer as well as resistance. Corinna has also researched and published academic works on border imperialism, struggles around the colonial-capitalist university, fascism, multipolarity, and national liberation, with a focus on the Maghreb, West Asia, and Turtle Island. Corinna was a member of the Steering Committee for the International Peoples' Tribunal on U.S. Imperialism and organizes with CUNY for Palestine and Labor for Palestine. She serves on the Steering Committee of the Professional Staff Congress (PSC)-CUNY's International Committee and is a member of the Delegate Assembly. Full bio from AISC. In this discussion we primarily discuss her piece, Zionism, Imperialism, and the Struggle Against Global Fascism: Palestine as the ‘Hornet's Nest' of US Empire from the Anti-Imperialist Scholars Collective blog The Pen Is My Machete And a little bit on her piece The ‘War on Terror' as Primitive Accumulation in Tunisia: US-Led Imperialism and the Post-2010-2011 Revolt/Security Conjuncture from Middle East Critique Also I say more about this in the episode, but Dr. Mullin was fired from CUNY as a result of her stance and organizing with respect to Palestine. We will include a statement from AISC on this and a Statement in Solidarity with CUNY Faculty and Students Facing McCarthyite Retaliation for Palestine Solidarity which we have signed. There are also a number of other calls to action for faculty and students at CUNY that we will include in the show description. Corinna talks about those at the end of the episode and we strongly encourage folks to support those calls to action it only takes a minute of your time. In this discussion Dr. Mullin talks a little bit about Dr. Ali Kadri's The Accumulation of Waste: A Political Economy of Systemic Destruction and it just so happens that we have a study group on that exact book starting on October 1st, it's available to everyone who supports the show, whether through patreon, BuyMeACoffee or as a YouTube member of the show. Details on that study group and how to join it are linked in the show description. But just to note that there are only about 40 spots left in the group as we publish this, so if you want to join us, make sure you do so ASAP to reserve your space. Calls to Action: "Hadeeqa Arzoo Malik is being made an example of for the sake of setting the tone across the nation at public universities, as they seek further control over the student movement for Palestine. City College President Vincent Boudreau has already denied her appeal for a drop to the charges, without even an acknowledgement to the 2,000+ calls and emails from the community that demanded her reinstatement. Now, it is time to escalate both our tactics against CUNY and whom we pressure— Take it to the Board of Trustees.

In this episode of The Israel Guys, we reflect on the shocking events of September 10th and the loss of Charlie Kirk, a bold Christian leader who stood fearlessly for God, the Bible, and the people of Israel. Known as a voice for the next generation, Charlie inspired millions through his organization, his podcast, and his unwavering defense of Israel. We revisit his words on faith, family, and the Jewish people, highlighting his powerful call that “when people stop talking, bad things happen.” His dedication to speaking truth and defending Judeo-Christian values made him a target, and his passing leaves a profound void. Alongside reactions from Ari, Tommy, Jeremy, Luke, we explore what this means for Israel supporters and conservatives in America. From Charlie's teachings about why Christians should honor Shabbat and his condemnation of Jew-hatred, to responses from leaders like Prime Minister Netanyahu and Dennis Prager, this episode grapples with what comes next. Our message is clear: in a world full of anti-Zionism, conspiracies, and Jew-hatred, the right response is to strengthen faith, build families, honor the Bible, and stand with Israel.

We touched on big themes like Zionism, sectarian divides, and other hot-button topics.Outro Music selected by Rabbi Schiller Agudah Achas (feat.

Ralph welcomes Palestinian-American writer, activist, and scientist Susan Abulhawa to discuss the ongoing Palestinian genocide and the evidence that supports a vastly higher death toll in Gaza.Susan Abulhawa is a Palestinian-American writer and political activist. She is the author of Mornings in Jenin—translated into thirty languages—and The Blue Between Sky and Water. Born to refugees of the Six Day War of 1967, she moved to the United States as a teenager, graduated in biomedical science, and established a career in medical science. In July 2001, she founded “Playgrounds for Palestine,” a non-governmental children's organization dedicated to upholding the Right to Play for Palestinian children.I consider this, first of all, immoral. It's disrespecting the Palestinian dead while they kill the Palestinians who are still alive with US bombers and artillery shells and other weapons coming from Washington, D.C. And it underestimates the kind of urgency that should be confronting this genocide.Ralph NaderThis is something that I think generations will study for a very long time to come. The complicity of Western media across the board is no less criminal than the genocide itself.Susan AbulhawaThis is a complete wiping out of life. A total destruction. And it's completely driven by this unfathomable hate and colonial arrogance and Jewish supremacy and this notion of entitlement. Of being favored by God, of being promised some real estate by a real-estate-agent Lord. I mean, it beggars belief the narratives that we see spoken in mainstream outlets and in the halls of power. Truly, it beggars belief.Susan AbulhawaNo, I don't believe Israel has a right to exist. It has never had a right to exist. No political entities have a right to exist. People have a right to exist. They have a right to exist in their own homeland with dignity. People have a right to universal dignity. A supremacist ideology—and that's ultimately what Zionism is predicated on, on supremacy and entitlement for a group of people at the detriment of another group of people—that is not a right, and it should never be a right. It should be anathema, in fact.Susan AbulhawaNews 9/5/25* The Intercept reports AIPAC has lost another Democratic ally in Congress. Congresswoman Deborah Ross of North Carolina has pledged that she will not accept AIPAC campaign contributions in her 2026 reelection bid. In previous elections, Ross has accepted over $100,000 in AIPAC donations. This comes on the heels of another North Carolina Congresswoman, Valerie Foushee – who received over $800,000 in AIPAC contributions – also renouncing donations from the group. As the Intercept notes, in June, the North Carolina Democratic Party adopted a resolution calling for a “complete arms embargo on all military aid to Israel until it ends its apartheid rule of Palestinians.” Dr. Paul McAllister, a reverend and chair of the Interfaith Caucus of the North Carolina Democratic Party, is quoted saying “AIPAC uses the muscle of their resources to oust anyone who disagrees with them regarding Israel, the conduct of Israel and the atrocities that may be committed by the government of Israel — so it is good that Deborah Ross is willing to recognize and acknowledge that.”* In more Israel news, a new aid flotilla bound for Gaza departed from Genoa, Italy last Sunday. Unlike previous flotillas however, this one carries the protection of a surprising group: Italian dockworkers. According to POLITICO EU, “Speaking at a rally on the docks of Genoa, one of Europe's largest ports, a dockworker representing the USB union said…‘Around mid-September, these boats will arrive near the coast of Gaza. If we lose contact with our boats, with our comrades, even for just 20 minutes, we will shut down all of Europe.'” Genoa has expressed unprecedented solidarity with Gaza. A food drive in the city collected “more than 300 tons of humanitarian aid…[and] over 40,000 people, including the city's mayor, Silvia Salis, joined a torchlit march through the streets in support of the [humanitarian flotilla on Saturday].” During the procession, Salis remarked “Every day I am proud to be the mayor of this city, but tonight, if possible, I am even more so.”* In yet another Israel story, Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, an Israeli cybersecurity apparatchik, who was arrested in August during an undercover operation “targeting child sex predators,” failed to appear for his court date in Nevada. Alexandrovich fled to Israel after being bailed out of jail in the U.S.; his lawyer, David Chesnoff, told the court that he told Alexandrovich not to attend the hearing. Judge Barbara Schifalacqua is now demanding that Alexandrovich appear before the court this week, but it remains to be seen whether he will actually show. This case has become politicized, with liberals and conservatives accusing one another of allowing Alexandrovich to flee the country. The government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu falsely denied that Alexandrovich was arrested at all. This from Al Jazeera.* In more sex predator news, Representatives Ro Khanna, Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor-Greene held a press conference this week with survivors of abuse at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein to push for full disclosure of the Justice Department's files on the case. At this conference, survivors also said they will release their own list of names. This comes amidst a renewed push for Congressional action spearheaded by the survivors. On Tuesday, the House Oversight Committee released a batch of records, but most of these have been made public before. The survivors met with lawmakers this week, including Speaker Mike Johnson, who said “I think the Oversight probe is going to be wide and expansive, and they're going to follow the truth wherever it leads,” per the Washington Post. Congresswoman Nancy Mace was also seen emerging from a meeting with the survivors visibly upset, though we do not know what exactly was discussed in this meeting. What is clear is that the Epstein story is not going away any time soon.* In local news, the National Guard has shared a statement with CBS News' Scott MacFarlane in which they boast that, “Guardsmen have cleaned more than 3.2 miles of roadways, collected more than 500 bags of trash, and disposed of three truckloads of plant waste.” Looking beyond the absurdity of deploying the National Guard to pick up trash, Samuel Littauer, Commissioner of ANC 3C01 – a local government district in Washington – crunched the numbers and found that “DC's cleaning crews cover around 81 miles/day for around $150K/day… [while the] National Guard has cleaned a total of 3.2 miles and costs more than $1M/day.” This means, “It's about 170X more cost efficient per mile to fund DC's existing work.”* Yet, despite the staggering inefficiency of the federal occupation – to say nothing of the outrageous, authoritarian government overreach – D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser has signed an order outlining how the District will “continue to work with the U.S. Marshals Service, the FBI, U.S. Park Police, the Drug Enforcement Administration, [and] the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives,” according to WTOP. This report notes that, “Bowser's order provides a path for working with federal law enforcement…[a] public indication that federal law enforcement could remain in the city indefinitely.” Other D.C. officials, including the District's delegate in Congress Eleanor Holmes Norton, have decried the occupation. Unfortunately, Norton is not even afforded the power of a single vote in Congress. This debacle further underscores the necessity for sovereign statehood for D.C.* In more news of federal law enforcement overreach, Prem Thakker of Zeteo reports new figures that show, “61,226 people are currently in ICE detention — the highest number ever in US history.” Thakker goes on to report that “According to ICE data, 70% of these people have no criminal conviction.” This unjustifiable mass detention shows no signs of slowing down, with ICE being granted larger and larger budgets and more and more latitude by the administration. The parallels to other shadowy secret police organizations throughout history continue to grow more pronounced.* Labor Notes editor Luis Feliz Leon reports Columbia University is seeking to bust graduate worker unions – at Columbia and beyond. A statement from the union reads “Over the summer, the university expelled and suspended 80 students, eliminated all but ten…graduate instructor jobs, and filed an Unfair Labor Practice Charge that could reshape the future of higher ed.” This marks yet another blow to the august reputation of Columbia, already damaged by their authoritarian overreaction to pro-Palestine protests and their capitulation to borderline extortion by Trump.* In the federal government, Trump continues to attack critical safety regulators. Reuters reports, “Two of the three remaining commissioners at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the U.S. nuclear safety watchdog, told a Senate hearing on Wednesday they feel President Donald Trump could fire them if they obstruct his goal to approve reactors faster.” Trump, via executive order, has committed the United States to, “fast-tracking new reactor licenses and quadrupling U.S. nuclear energy capacity by 2050…while also reducing staffing at the NRC.” The Commission is already down to just three members from its usual five and according to this report, “a dozen senior level managers…have left or announced they will leave since January, and…143 staff departed between January and June.” The Commission is currently considering five reactor applications and “expects another 25 to 30 soon.” Whatever one's thoughts are on nuclear energy in general, it is wildly irresponsible and dangerous to consider these reactor proposals by a commission short-staffed and constantly threatened with dismissal.* Finally, the Government Accountability Project has submitted a stunning whistleblower complaint on behalf of Chuck Borges, Chief Data Officer at the Social Security Administration. This complaint concerns “serious data security lapses, evidently orchestrated by DOGE officials, currently employed as SSA employees, that risk the security of over 300 million Americans' Social Security data…including apparent systemic data security violations, uninhibited administrative access to highly sensitive production environments, and potential violations of federal privacy laws by DOGE personnel.” The most critical violation is the DOGE staffers' move to “create a live copy of the country's Social Security information in a cloud environment that circumvents oversight.” As this complaint explains, “This vulnerable cloud environment is effectively a live copy of the entire country's Social Security information…that…lacks any security oversight from SSA or tracking to determine who is accessing or has accessed the copy of this data.” This includes “all data submitted in an application for a United States Social Security card—including the name of the applicant, place and date of birth, citizenship, race and ethnicity, parents' names and social security numbers, phone number, address, and other personal information.” If this data were to be compromised – as is eminently possible given the unsecured and unsupervised nature of the cloud copy, “Americans may be susceptible to widespread identity theft, may lose vital healthcare and food benefits, and the government may be responsible for re-issuing every American a new Social Security Number.” This staggering degree of carelessness and incompetence is almost unbelievable, if not for the fact that it comports perfectly with the DOGE track record. We can only hope lawmakers and regulators take swift action to shut down this ticking timebomb of data before it's too late.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

For fifty years, the United Nations has waged a war on Israel—not with rockets or tanks, but with words: resolutions branding Zionism as racism, false charges of apartheid, fabricated famine, and now even cries of genocide.

What is the role of Palestinian artists during the genocide in Gaza? For Palestinian curator Ahmed al-Alaqra it is not about glorifying cultural symbolism like the watermelon. In fact, artistic institutions should shut their doors."Burn the thawbs, destroy the watermelon."This episode was recorded in the summer of 2024 in Sirdab studios in Ramallah, on the occupied West Bank.If you enjoy Kalam Podcast and want to support the show, there is an excellent way to do so - by signing up to our Patreon.

Leaked audio from Israel's former chief of military intelligence, Maj. Gen. Aharon Haliva, reveals him saying “50,000 dead in Gaza is necessary” and that Palestinians “need a Nakba” to learn the cost of resistance. In this conversation, genocide scholar Omer Bartov unpacks the implications: the blurred line between war crimes, ethnic cleansing, and genocide; the whataboutisms comparing Gaza to WWII bombings; and U.S. complicity through its weapons pipeline. We also explore how Holocaust memory has been wielded as shield and sword, whether Zionism can be salvaged, and the paradox of a state born from genocide now accused of committing one. Guest bio: Omer Bartov is a historian and genocide scholar at Brown University, specializing in Holocaust studies, genocide, and modern warfare. Born in Israel, he has written extensively on the Holocaust in Eastern Europe and ethnic violence, and is widely recognized as one of the world's leading experts on genocide.

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. Political correspondent Sam Sokol and tech reporter Sharon Wrobel join host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As deputy foreign minister Sharren Haskel said she won't follow foreign minister and New Hope party head Gideon Sa'ar into a merger with the Likud party, Sokol discusses Haskel's position on the front lines of Israel's information battle and her concerns about Likud's representation of moderate voters. Opposition leader Yair Lapid warned of the end of Zionism if Netanyahu's coalition wins the next election, which Sokol calls Lapid's election rhetoric, consistent with how Lapid has been speaking for the last few years. Sokol analyzes rising tensions between Ashkenazi and Sephardic Haredi parties and Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee chairman Boaz Bismuth's new approach to Haredi conscription law. Hungarian low-cost airline Wizz Air plans to establish a base in Israel, notes Wrobel, offering it advantages in the Israeli air transportation market. Wrobel also discusses milk shortages in Israel due to production issues and consumer panic.

“Colonial racism helps explain the Trump administration's adulation of Israeli violence against Palestinians,” Professor Aviva Chomsky writes at The Nation. In fact, colonial racism is the common thread binding the violent, eliminationist politics of Donald Trump in the US and Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel. In this installment of our ongoing series “Not in Our Name” on The Marc Steiner Show, Marc speaks with Professor Chomsky about how Israel's US-backed genocide in Gaza is the grim culmination of the settler-colonial project of Zionism, and how the repression of political dissent under the guise of “combatting antisemitism” is an extension of that violent project.Guest:Aviva Chomsky is a professor of history and the coordinator of Latin American studies at Salem State University in Massachusetts.

Rabbi Yosef Blau has been the focus of both fury and admiration over the past week, called both a hero and a traitor, and garnered attention at a level that has astonished him, he said on the Haaretz Podcast. The pushback comes after Blau spearheaded an open letter signed by 80 Orthodox rabbis that called the humanitarian crisis in Gaza “one of the most severe in recent history” and called on Israel to assume “its share of the responsibility” for Palestinian civilians in Gaza. The letter also condemned settler violence in the West Bank. As a pillar of the mainstream modern Orthodox world, Blau is an unlikely political maverick. The 86-year-old was a leader at Yeshiva University for 48 years and led the Religious Zionists of America for more than a decade. On the podcast, Blau – who moved from New York to Israel five months ago – describes a "shift in the world of religious Zionism” – a change he describes as transforming from “the most moderate force in the Israeli government that reflected a large variety of views on pretty much every issue outside of religion, to become more and more associated with the extreme right.” Addressing critics who say the letter he wrote could fuel antisemitism outside Israel, Blau says such thinking is “a mistake in judgment,” adding “I think not taking a stand increases antisemitism.” Read more: Over 80 Orthodox Rabbis Urge Israel to Address Gaza Humanitarian Situation, Condemn Settler Violence Leftist?

Theater has been central to the formation of Palestinian national consciousness for almost a century. One of the foremost Theater troupes active today is Betlehem's al-Harah. Before summer of this year, the visited Sweden's Tribunalen theater, touring their play Meramieh (Sage), a powerful staging of a number of personal testimonies of al-Nakba. Earlier this year Samuel Carlshamre had the honour of recording an episode with Nicola Zreineh and Marina Barham from al-Harah Theater, live on stage. The conversation ranged from the conditions of theater under occupation and genocide, the educational and artistic challenges confronting Palestinian art today, to Palestinian identity as a source of pride and inspiration, as well as a cage and a constraint.

We're living in a cultural meltdown. From Cracker Barrel's embarrassing rebrand fiasco, to journalists being killed in Gaza, to a Catholic school shooting in Minnesota — it's all connected.What ties these tragedies together? Our steady drift away from Christ.When a society rejects Jesus and the Scriptures:We trade beauty and wisdom for shallow trends.We swallow false ideologies like Zionism and call it “faithful.”We cheapen human life — fueling despair, violence, and confusion.We lose eternity from our vision, making death and destruction “normal.”But there is hope. The only way back is a course correction: returning to the foundation our forefathers knew — Jesus Christ and the Word of God.Inside this episode:✅ Cracker Barrel's collapse into postmodern “progress”✅ Gaza journalists and the bloody fruit of Zionism✅ The Minneapolis Catholic school shooting and the loss of life's value✅ Why turning back to Christ is the only way forwardWatch now, share it, and drop your thoughts in the comments!#CrackerBarrel #CatholicSchoolShooting #Gaza #JournalistsKilled #Zionism #ChristianPodcast #BiblicalTruth #AmericaInCrisis #FaithOverFear #ReturnToChrist
Some Christians seem to be obsessed with modern-day Israel, while others act like it doesn't matter at all. But what does the Bible actually say about God's chosen people? In this message, Lead Pastor Jamie Nunnally wraps up our Elephants in the Room series by challenging us to think biblically about Israel.Today's topic is the relationship between Jews and Christians, the Old and New Testaments, and Israel's role in our faith. Some churches focus heavily on Christianity's Jewish roots and modern Israel, while others ignore them. Let's avoid two errors:Replacement theology – the belief that the Church has replaced Israel. Romans 11 makes it clear: God has not rejected Israel.Dual covenant theology – the idea that Jews are saved by the old covenant while Gentiles are saved by Jesus. Romans 3 and 30 affirm there is one way to salvation—faith in Christ, for everyone.The Messy MiddleBiblical balance comes from holding two tensions at once. Think of a see-saw: each truth needs equal weight. We don't dilute truth; we clarify it by holding multiple truths together.We must affirm both:Christians should bless Israel for their history and legacy and embrace Messianic Jews as spiritual family.Christians are not bound to follow Old Testament law, Jewish traditions, or to support modern Israeli politics.Blessing IsraelIsrael gave us the covenants, the law, the promises, and ultimately Christ (Romans 9:4-5, John 4:22). Messianic Jews are part of our spiritual family (Ephesians 2:14).No Obligation to Jewish Law or TraditionsThe law was a guardian until Christ came (Galatians 3:24). We now live by faith. The law convicts sinners—it's not a manual for saints (1 Timothy 1:8-9).Jewish customs are not required. Colossians 2 says these were shadows; Christ is the reality. God meets us where we are. Communion is about heart, not method.Political Support for IsraelYou don't have to support modern-day Israel's politics to be a faithful Christian. Understand the terms:Dispensationalism is a theological view that separates Israel and the Church in God's plan.Zionism is political, advocating for a Jewish homeland.Christian Zionism blends both, often linking Israel to end-times prophecy.Be cautious concerning blind support. Romans 9 and Galatians 6 remind us: not all who are descended from Israel are true Israel. Our allegiance is to God's kingdom above all nations.How Can We Bless Israel?Reject false saviors—Judaism without Jesus cannot save (Acts 4:12).Recognize priority—the gospel came to the Jew first (Romans 1:16).Remember God's promise—Israel's hard hearts are temporary (Romans 11:25-26).Preach Jesus—He is Messiah to Jew and Gentile alike (Acts 2:38).Israel's legacy is part of our faith story—but salvation is in Christ alone. Bless Israel, love the Jewish people, but follow Jesus into the messy middle: gratitude without obligation, love without blind loyalty, truth without compromise. When it comes to Israel, are you willing to follow Jesus into the messy middle?
A @Christadelphians Video: In this thought-provoking expositional report, we examine the heated debate surrounding Israel's presence in the Holy Land—is it an occupation or *colonialism*? From a biblical standpoint, the land belongs neither to Israel nor the Palestinians—it is the Lord's (Deuteronomy 11:12). We trace God's covenant with Abraham (Genesis 12:6-7, 13:15) and analyse the modern political rhetoric that seeks to redefine Israel's legitimacy. Revealing the shift in language from "occupation" to "settler colonialism," we explore how this narrative aligns with anti-Zionist agendas and historic revisionism. With tensions escalating since the October 2023 Hamas attacks, the world is witnessing a dangerous resurgence of anti-Semitism—propelling us closer to the prophetic showdown over Jerusalem (Zechariah 12:3).

As with the murders of Israeli embassy workers Yaron Lischinsky and Sara Lynn Milgrim in 2025, a story that conveniently ran interference for Israeli soldiers threatening to kill foreign diplomats in the West Bank just hours before, the August 27, 2025, mass shooting at Annunciation Catholic School-Church did something similar for another story about Israel twice bombing a hospital the same week, killing patients, aid workers and journalists. The shooter, Robin Westman, was classified by the following political affiliations as such: The political right blamed his trans identity, implying drugs were involved, and accused the political left of inciting the violence because one of the messages written on his equipment included “kill Donald Trump.” The whole of LGBTQ was indicted, and he was referred to as having been “groomed.” The political left blamed the far-right, guns, and Nazism, because among a collection of writings and messages the shooter had scribbled on his equipment phrases like “6 million wasn't enough,” “Israel must fall” and “Jew gas.” He had also spoken of murdering “filthy Zionist Jews” in a video manifesto and wrote in a journal “Free Palestine” using the Cyrillic alphabet. Robin Westman (or Westwoman) also strangely wrote “release the list” next to an upside down cross that we can be assured had nothing to do with St. Peter. On two separate ammo magazines he wrote “suck on this” and “where is your God” respectively. Strangely, it appeared that below the former he drew a bird above the Arabic word “Mashallah.” These details were used as evidence that his influence was Islam, and that Muslims were coming to kill Jews. However true any of the above actually is the fact remains that a supposedly antisemitic mass shooter decided to take his anger about Zionism out on Catholics, and children specifically, at a facility where his mother found employment. Something was seriously wrong with this story. First, the concerns of drugs, hormone therapy, puberty blockers, and radical leftwing rhetoric is a valid concern; but blaming the shooting on “transgenderism” serves no other role than to incite and obfuscate. Second, the accusations of Nazism against Westman by the leftwing seem to be a great example of why you aren't supposed to throw stones in a glass house; isn't the political left perceptually the party of anti-Israel? Third, someone who wants “the list,” presumably of Jeffrey Epstein's clients, released could be motivated by either political bias, or by an anarchial spirit against all organized government. Fourth, the tropes about “6 million” dead Jews and Jews being gassed are nothing but atrocity propaganda and gas lighting in light of the facts. Also, the phrase “Israel will fall” is itself anti-Nazi since the latter helped to establish the former. Fifth, the phrase “Free Palestine” has been associated with nearly every act of public violence in the U.S. since October 7, 2023. Sixth, the idea that this shooter was influenced by Islam makes even less sense if he wrote “where is your God,” unless that phrase was meant to imply that he believed the Christian God was different than Allah, an Arabic word for God; and for added confusion on this point, there are three Abrahamic religions, including Islam, Christianity and Judaism. Seventh, the word “Mashallah” denotes the beauty or greatness of something and is a protective charm against the evil eye; it is especially popular among Arabic Christians. Eighth, why would a kid who grew up in a Christian community, presumably, grow to hate Jews, Israel, and Zionists so bad that he would decide to carry out an act of violence against… Catholic children?Within hours, understandably, the FBI began investigating the incident as an “act of domestic terrorism and hate crime targeting Catholics.” We are to believe the word “Mashallah” indicates his Islamic inspiration, which itself is beyond confusing because the word draws on beauty and peace, not violence. Put another way, a Christian anti-Zionist who hated Jews became a Muslim, though he doesn't actually believe in God, and then killed Catholics.An equally peculiar question can be asked about why someone who wanted to “kill Donald Trump,” a leftist chant, would write supposedly radical, rightwing, Nazi phrases - themselves the modern language of the political left - on their equipment before carrying out a shooting against the Church? It seems clear that the rhetoric here is meant to convince us once again that not only are Muslims terrorists, but godless ones that should be shown no mercy; we are to imagine that Muslims hate Jews and Christians so much they will slaughter their children; the mysterious writing is intended to confuse and obfuscate, creating unclear conditions where emotions override critical thinking; the upside down cross facilitates the subconscious Christian reaction. Even more bizarre is the fact that above the Arabic word “Mashallah”, itself semitic, was what appeared to be a bird drawn on one of the magazines. Birds play a role in the Islamic holy texts as symbols of wisdom and guides from Allah, similar to Huginn and Muninn, the sacred ravens of Odin. Birds also fly, swim, walk on land, and are symbols of fiery rebirth like the phoenix. This must have a deeper meaning because not only is a bird representative of the four elements, i.e., GOD, but the shooter wrote “like a phoenix we rise from the ashes” on his equipment too. For the layman these things appear to indicate some sort of cryptic symbolism, which no doubt Internet sleuths will argue over for months or years to come. But what it may mean in context is yet another covert insult to God. Finally, we read from the Jewish Telegraphic Agency of another curious phrase written by the shooter: “A YouTube account believed to have belonged to Westman shared videos prior to the shooting in which gun parts and smoke grenades can be seen with neo-Nazi messaging including, ‘6 million wasn't enough,' ‘Burn Israel,' ‘Israel must fall' and ‘Destroy HIAS,' a reference to the Jewish humanitarian organization. The videos were removed after the shooting. HIAS was also targeted in online writing by Robert Bowers, the man convicted of murdering 11 Jews in the Tree of Life synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh in 2018.” Based on what we learned about HIAS earlier, the picture here begins to form into a clear remedy for all the confusion. Why would a Christian inspired by Islam and a hatred of Jews, specifically blaming HIAS for facilitating illegal immigration, also hate Donald Trump while simultaneously writing or saying things considered rightwing, and then after all is said and done kill Catholic children as punishment for what the Jews supposedly had done? All the propaganda and rhetoric surrounding Jews conveniently became a national story just as the country is questioning why Israel bombed a hospital, waited for journalists and aid workers to arrive with help, and then bombed the facility a second time. According to the New York Post, “the deranged gunman mused about assassinating President Trump and Jews,” but instead decided on the “children of innocent civilians.” The Robin Westman shooting appears to be CIA-Mossad intelligence operations, if not the even itself then the response.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Pluralism, Conflict, and Jewish Community: A Conversation with Rabbi Ben BergerRabbi Ben Berger, Senior Vice President for Education, Community, and Culture at Hillel International, joins the podcast for a deep dive into Jewish texts, pluralism, disagreement, and the challenges of building community in times of conflict. From the fiery debates of Hillel and Shammai to the complexities of pluralism on today's campuses, we explore what it means to hold conviction and humility at the same time.This episode touches on Talmudic stories, the nature of disagreement, the risks of polarization, and the boundaries of pluralism in relation to Jewish life, weddings, education, Zionism, and community leadership.
CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION OF CHRISTENDOMIn this episode, we interview Jewish convert Gideon Lazar about his conversion to the Catholic Faith, and discuss (among other things) modern Zionism and the role of the Jewish people (hopefully the first of many such discussions).Gideon Lazar received a BA in Classics and Medieval/Byzantine Studies from the Catholic University of America. Having grown up in a Jewish family, he was baptized in 2018 and received into the Catholic Church in 2019. He is currently an MA Theology student and the institute coordinator for the St. Basil Institute for the Study of the Theology of Creation. He writes about theology on his Substack and creates YouTube videos on his channel "The Byzantine Scotist." He lives near Seattle with his wife and kids.VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONWe are a non-profit, and all gifts are tax-deductible.

This week, Noam Weissman sits down with Toba Hellerstein, author of American Perceptions of Jews and Israel and a leading expert on antisemitism, diplomacy, and narrative strategy. Together, they unpack why Israel advocacy so often falls flat. From the meaning of Zionism to the archetypes of “king,” “victim,” and “antihero,” this conversation reframes how Jews (and their allies) should talk about Israel in a world flooded with images, emotions, and outrage. Here is a link to Toba Hellertsein's article in the Sapir Journal that inspired this episode: Actually, Feelings Don't Care About Your Facts.
