Former IDF soldiers argue Israel’s right to defend itself | Shai DeLuca and Itai Erdal | Ep 33

Two men. The same army. Opposite verdicts on the country they both served. Shai DeLuca and Itai Erdal each wore the IDF uniform. One came home one of Israel's most visible defenders. The other, by his own account, still loves Israel but with a broken heart. In the first debate of its kind on The Unfiltered View, host Israel Ellis sits both veterans across from each other for a raw, unedited conversation on the questions tearing through Jewish and Israeli life right now. This is not Arab versus Jew. It is two Jews, two soldiers, two readings of nearly identical service, and almost nothing they agree on. They go head to head on: - 1948 and the Nakba: ethnic cleansing, or the aftermath of a war the Arab states launched - What Israeli schools do and do not teach about the founding - Gaza after the 2005 disengagement, the Hamas takeover, and why the siege began - Who built Hamas: the Muslim Brotherhood, or Israeli policy and Qatari money - The casualty figures out of Gaza, and how each man reads them - Indigeneity: who is indigenous to the land, and what actually defines it - The 850,000 Jews expelled from Arab lands, and the story the Nakba narrative leaves out - Anti-Zionism and antisemitism: the same thing, or worlds apart - Rising antisemitism in Canada, armed guards outside synagogues, and how far the comparison to the 1930s can go Neither man gives an inch. Israel Ellis moderates, presses both sides, and lets the disagreement breathe. The Unfiltered View is independent, self-financed media hosted by Israel Ellis. We bring together people who disagree, and we let them talk.

Did Trump BETRAY Israel? | Robert Spencer on the Iran "Peace Deal" | Ep 32

Trump says the Iran war is over and a new era has begun. 𝗥𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘁 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿 says Israel just got sold out. After more than three months of war, 𝗪𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗼𝗻 and 𝗧𝗲𝗵𝗿𝗮𝗻 have signed a deal, the naval blockade is lifting and the 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗛𝗼𝗿𝗺𝘂𝘇 is reopening, and 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗺𝗽 is calling it a new dawn for the Middle East while Iran calls it a victory. Spencer calls it surrender dressed up as peace. Meanwhile, where is Israel's place at the table? 𝗜𝘀𝗿𝗮𝗲𝗹 𝗘𝗹𝗹𝗶𝘀 welcomes back one of 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗩𝗶𝗲𝘄's favourite repeat guests. 𝗥𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘁 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿, director of 𝗝𝗶𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵, author of 32 books, and now his new book, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘛𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘥𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘐𝘴𝘭𝘢𝘮.   Robert and Israel call the US-Iran deal "𝘁𝗮𝗾𝗶𝘆𝘆𝗮", the Islamic doctrine of religious deception, and argues that under Islamic law a treaty with an infidel power is never peace but a pause to regroup. Trump has publicly rebuked Netanyahu, said Israel would be gone in an instant without America, and is discussing sending Tehran hundreds of billions of dollars, more than Obama ever dreamed of. The president who ran as the anti-Obama, Spencer says, is now turning on allies and embracing enemies exactly as Obama did, and Israel, shut out of its own war's peace table, has no choice but to go it alone. From there the conversation widens to the war Spencer says the West refuses to see. Sharia and the 𝗨.𝗦. 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 cannot coexist. 𝗠𝗮𝗺𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗶's New York is 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗷𝗶𝗵𝗮𝗱. Canada has just handed an unaudited five hundred million dollars to the 𝗣𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 under the banner of humanitarian aid. His new book, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘛𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘥𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘐𝘴𝘭𝘢𝘮, asks a question he says no one else has. Does Islam actually work? His answer, that it is a parasitical system that must conquer new lands and peoples to survive, runs from the fall of the Ottoman Empire to the streets of Europe today. Tied to Ellis's series 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘑𝘦𝘸𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘊𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘥𝘢: 𝘔𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘔𝘪𝘥𝘯𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵, the two confront the question being asked in Jewish homes across the West. Should we stay or should we go? Spencer's reading of history is grim. Every surge in antisemitism, he says, has ended in blood. But the danger he fears most is not a single atrocity. It is quiet capitulation: hate-speech laws, criminalized dissent, and a new set of Nuremberg Laws arriving so subtly that most people never notice until it is too late. This is a conversation about survival, not left versus right. Is this a return to the 1930s? Are we already past midnight and only telling ourselves it's a few minutes to go? And what, if anything, can ordinary people still do about it? 𝗥𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘁 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿 is the director of 𝗝𝗶𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵 and a 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗙𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄 at the 𝗗𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗱 𝗛𝗼𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗶𝘁𝘇 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗼𝗺 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿.

Losing a War is NOT Genocide | Jonathan Tobin DISMANTLES Norman Finkelstein | Ep 31

𝗝𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗧𝗼𝗯𝗶𝗻 is the editor-in-chief of the 𝗝𝗲𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗡𝗲𝘄𝘀 𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲 (𝗝𝗡𝗦), one of the most credible and widely recognized voices in Jewish journalism worldwide. Following 𝗜𝘀𝗿𝗮𝗲𝗹 𝗘𝗹𝗹𝗶𝘀's explosive interview with 𝗡𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗹𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗶𝗻 (Ep 23), Tobin joins 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗩𝗶𝗲𝘄 to dismantle the claims, the lies, and the propaganda that Finkelstein and his allies continue to spread. From the genocide accusation myth to blood libels to the real meaning of proportionality, Tobin pulls no punches. He explains why Palestinian nationalism has become a death cult, why Gaza could have been beach side haven for the rich and famous but chose tunnels instead, and why the phrase "From the River to the Sea" is not free speech but an incitement to genocide of Jews. Ellis shares a firsthand account of an anti-Israel "From the River to the Sea" incident aboard an Air Canada flight that underscores just how deeply subversive anti-Israel and thereby antisemitic normalization is within everyday life. This is a conversation that needs to be had. The rise of antisemitism in the West is a dilemma for every Jew — is this a return to the 1930s?  Should we stay or should we go? Can this be fixed?

Bondi Beach Massacre: A Betrayal of Jews Everywhere — Is Canada Next? | Michael Gencher | Ep 30

In September, Gencher stood in 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗸, 𝗕𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗶, and told the Jewish community that people were going to be hurt. On 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟰, a father and son terror team walked into a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach, murdered fifteen people, and wounded scores more. In this conversation with 𝗜𝘀𝗿𝗮𝗲𝗹 𝗘𝗹𝗹𝗶𝘀, Gencher speaks plainly about the cascade of political failures behind one of the worst attacks on Jews in Australian history. He says Albanese and his government 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗯𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀. He delivers a direct warning to Canadian Jews. And he explains why he now signs statutory declarations every week for Australian Jews who want their home addresses buried so they cannot be found. What happened at Bondi Beach can happen in Canada.
