SUMMARY:The Rise of Antisemitism within the United States
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe transcript will be available here \nFor perhaps the first time in our history\, the Jewish community in the United States is feeling besieged by unprecedented attacks on both the extreme left\, and the extreme right. The Jewish community of New York City\, the largest community of Jews outside of Israel\, is feeling frightened\, abandoned and confused. Tucker Carlson has given the white supremacist\, and Holocaust-denier\, Nick Fuentes a welcome embrace\, and Kevin Roberts of the Heritage Foundation had uncritically defended Tucker Carlson. This has led to several resignations within Heritage\, and\, after a week of outrage\, a later apology from Kevin Roberts. There is also a growing isolationist trend within republican politics.  We are seeing a civil war within the right. \nHowever\, that right-wing “civil war” pales in comparison to the woke embrace of radical left-wing socialists who are sympathetic to radical Islamists on the left. The recent mayoral election in New York of Zohran Mamdani has us greatly alarmed. Mr. Mamdani has made inflammatory statements regarding the state of Israel\, calling what is happening in Gaza a “genocide”. While a student at Bowdoin College\, he formed an alliance with the radical left-wing Jewish group J Street and subsequently shut the alliance down.  He has made deftly-crafted  statements such as\, “My support for BDS is consistent with the core of my politics\, which is nonviolence. And I think that it is a legitimate movement when you are seeking to find compliance with international law.” He is attempting to threaten the partnership of Cornell and the Technion in Haifa\, and has vowed to “arrest” Prime Minister Netanyahu\, if he even lands in New York. Based on interviews in the New York Times\, his words represent the views of thousands of Muslims throughout the United States. \nIn August of 1790\, President George Washington wrote a letter to the congregation of Newport\, Rhode Island\, saying “May the children of the stock of Abraham who dwell in this land continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other inhabitants—while every one shall sit in safety under his own vine and fig tree and there shall be none to make him afraid.” \nAre we\, Jews of America\, still feeling that same sense of “safety” today? \nHere to discuss this is Eric Mandel.  \nAbout our Speaker: Dr. Eric Mandel is the founder and Director of MEPIN™\, the Middle East Political Information Network™. MEPIN is a Middle East research analysis read by members of Congress\, their foreign policy advisors\, journalists\, think tanks\, foreign officials\, and organizational leaders. \nHe regularly briefs members of Congress and their staffs about the current geopolitical situation in the Middle East and how it affects American national security interests. \nHe is the Senior Security Editor of the Jerusalem Report / Jerusalem Post\, writing about Iran\, Lebanon\, Jordan\, Egypt\, the Gulf States\, Turkey\, Kurdistan\, the US-Israel relationship\, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict\, and Syria. His work appears in The Hill\, National Interest\, RealClearWorld\, ABC News\, the Forward\, JNS\, i24\, Rudow (Iraq)\, IsraelNationalNews\, JTA\, Algemeiner\, Israel Hayom\, Thinc.\, Defense News\, and other publications.

SUMMARY:The Middle East Shake Up Since the Inauguration of President Donald Trump
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe transcript will be available here \nSince the inauguration of President Donald Trump\, spheres of influence within the Middle East have changed radically. What sort of influence does Iran still have within the Middle East? How important is Turkey’s role? What is taking place in Qatar\, in Iraq\, in Syria\, in Lebanon and in Judea and Samaria/the West Bank? \nHow is the Trump plan regarding Gaza being played out in the Muslim and Arab world? How is it being played out in the foreign policy establishment? \nHow are the American polls reflecting their attitudes towards Hamas\, towards Palestinians\, and towards Iran’s nuclear program? And all importantly: 17 months of warfare\, how are the Israelis and how is the IDF holding up? \nAbout our Speaker: \nDr. Eric Mandel is the Director of MEPIN\, the Middle East Political Information Network\, the Senior Security Editor for the Jerusalem Report\, and a regular contributor to The Hill and the Jerusalem Post.  He regularly briefs members of Congress\, their foreign policy aides\, and the State Department. He is also the Director of Mandel Strategies\, a consulting and advising firm for business and government officials in the Middle East. \nSince Oct 7\, Dr. Mandel has been on the frontlines with the IDF six times and was a firsthand witness to the massacre on Oct 7 in Sderot.  \nDr. Mandel regularly meets with Israeli intelligence\, defense\, and political leaders in and out of government. Since October\, he has spoken to twelve universities about the Middle East and anti-Semitism on American college campuses. For ten years\, he was the chair and co-chair of StandWithUs in the Northeast\, an international organization dedicated to fighting anti-Semitism. \nHe is a regular analyst on i24TV and has been published in National Interest\, JNS\, Must Reads-Foundation for Democracies\, RealClearWorld\, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights\, National Cyber Security News\, Media Line\, YNET\, SRN\, MSN\, the Forward\, Rudow (Iraq)\, the NY Sun\, Moment Magazine\, the Times of Israel\, Jewish Week\, Kurdistan24\, IsraelNationalNews\, JTA\, Algemeiner\, Israel Unwired\, WorldJewishNews\, Israel Hayom\, Thinc.
