Ep. 212: Why people still love dead Jews

Jews shouldn’t have to choose between fighting antisemitism and bolstering Jewish identity. According to JNS editor-in-chief, the assertion of New York Times columnist Bret Stephens that the Jewish community should stop doing the former and concentrate on the latter is a false choice. They need, he says, to continue to do both, though, admittedly the critique of Jew-hatred is often badly executed. He’s joined in this week’s episode of Think Twice by Dara Horn, author of the highly influential 2021 book, People Love Dead Jews: Reports from a Haunted Present and the recently published Passover-themed graphic novel One Little Goat. Horn is the founder and president of The Tell Institute, which is devoted to educating the public about Jewish civilization. She says the lessons of her previous book still apply in the post-Oct. 7 era. She argues that “people tell stories about dead Jews that make them feel good about themselves” and “living Jews have to erase themselves in order for those stories to be told.” But after Oct. 7, it’s clear that it's actually simpler than that. “The message of people who love dead Jews, which unfortunately has only been confirmed in the past two years, is that non-Jewish societies generally only find Jews acceptable when Jews have no power.” Ultimately, she says, the point of venerating dead Jews while delegitimizing live ones, like those in Israel, “is the goal of working toward a final solution of eliminating Jewish civilization.” Her graphic novel is aimed primarily at children but is sophisticated enough to have a lot for adults too. It presents a surrealist seder in which a lost afikomen prolongs the evening for six months and prompts a journey through Jewish history for its protagonist while being led by a talking goat. In the course of the story, the essential lesson of Passover that every Jew understands that they were personally liberated from Egypt is brought to life.

Trump vs Netanyahu on Iran: What They Really Said Behind Closed Doors

What if the Trump–Netanyahu meeting isn’t about peace talks at all, but about squeezing Iran while it’s flat on the mat? Mark Regev and Ruthie Blum unpack the White House showdown everyone’s obsessing over, then do something wildly revealing: they role-play what might have actually been said behind closed doors, with “Trump” pushing pressure-diplomacy and “Netanyahu” warning there’s no such thing as a good-faith deal with the Ayatollahs. You’ll learn how Trump thinks about leverage, war, and “a deal backed by a club,” why Israel is desperate not to have its hands tied and what a “good deal” would even mean when sanctions, inspections, missiles and terror funding are all on the line. If you want the real strategic debate , not the talking points, this one pulls you right into the room.

CHECKMATE! The End of US-Iran Talks Is Fast Approaching...

America and Iran just held “talks” where they wouldn’t even sit in the same room, all while Tehran publicly threatened to sink U.S. aircraft carriers. In this episode of Israel Undiplomatic, you’ll learn how to read the real power dynamics behind the Geneva meeting: why delaying diplomacy can actually help the U.S. and Israel militarily, what Vice President J.D. Vance’s “red lines” signal about where Washington is headed, and why PM Netanyahu’s two non-negotiables (removing enriched uranium and ending Iran’s ability to enrich at all) expose the “peaceful program” claim as a bluff. The hosts also clash over the biggest strategic dilemma: is any deal enforceable with an ideological regime or does a “good deal” just buy the Ayatollahs time to rebuild, fund proxies and outwait the West?

Trump’s State of the Union Drops Nuclear Iran Bombshell

Is the Middle East on the brink of a massive war or a historic nuclear deal that could change everything? This episode dissects President Trump’s dramatic State of the Union warning to Iran, the looming U.S.-Iran nuclear talks, and the very real fear in Israel that missiles, from Iran, Hezbollah or the Houthis, could soon send millions running to bomb shelters. You’ll learn why Israelis are deeply divided over whether any deal with the Islamic Republic can be trusted, what Trump’s real red lines might be, how Netanyahu is navigating a political minefield with Washington, and why Hezbollah, Syria, Turkey and even India could shape what happens next.

Ep. 175: How to Restore Civil Discourse – A Talmudic Guide

In the Internet era and politically bifurcated societies, is constructive disagreement, a concept that is at the heart of traditional Talmud study, even possible anymore? JNS editor-in-chief Jonathan Tobin admits that he’s skeptical about whether political discourse can be anything other than a zero-sum game in the current atmosphere. Tobin is joined on this week’s episode by one person who believes that it doesn’t have to be that way. Daniel Taub, a mediator, writer and former Israeli diplomat is the author of the new book, Beyond Dispute: Rediscovering the Jewish Art of Constructive Disagreement. According to Taub, the tools to bring us closer together can be found in those that are part of the Jewish tradition. What’s more, he points out that the methods that are used in Talmud study arose out of a period of even worse Jewish disunity, during the last years of the Temple era 2,000 years ago and the period that followed its destruction.

Ep. 177: Israel must take the gloves off in Gaza

As environmentalist extremist turned pro-Hamas activist Greta Thunberg’s refusal to watch the film of the atrocities committed by the Palestinians on Oct. 7, 2023 indicated, the Jewish state’s foes may not be interested in listening to the truth about the war in Gaza. But according to JNS editor-in-chief Jonathan Tobin, it is still imperative for pro-Israel advocates to continue to speak out and highlight the facts of the conflict. He’s joined in this week’s episode of Think Twice by legal expert Thane Rosenbaum, author of the new book, “Beyond Proportionality: Israel’s Just War in Gaza.” Rosenbaum argues that the attempt to smear Israel as having committed war crimes or a genocide in Gaza is not only an outrageous lie. He sees the attempt to shape the narrative of the war in this manner as “the intersection between antisemitism and international law.”

Ep.210: Waiting for the shoe to drop on Iran

The main question to be asked about President Donald Trump’s foreign policy is not the immediate one about whether or when the United States will attack Iran, important though that may be. Rather, says JNS editor-in-chief Jonathan Tobin, it’s understanding that, his critics’ claims notwithstanding, far from being isolationist, Trump’s approach is one of selective use of force only when he perceives it to be in America’s direct interest. Tobin is joined in this week’s episode of Think Twice by veteran diplomat and Tikvah Fund head Elliott Abrams. He believes that a negotiated deal between the United States and Iran that might prevent a military conflict are highly unlikely. Abrams asserts that after the severe losses they suffered during last year’s 12-day war on Iran by Israel and the United States, Trump thought Tehran understood that it was in no position to avoid making real concessions on its nuclear program and other issues. But the Iranians clearly are more worried about looking weak in the eyes of its restive population. The Islamists are also, Abrams says, much like the Palestinians in their thinking about the conflict. They believe that demonstrating their willingness to be steadfast and continue the war against the U.S. and Israel is vital to maintaining their ideological purpose despite it not being in their interest to do so. On the other hand, Abrams points out that a failure on Trump’s part in following through on his threats against Iran and his promise of help to the Iranian people will have serious consequences for U.S. foreign policy. Trump, too, cannot afford to look weak in the eyes of America’s adversaries. As for the situation in Gaza in the aftermath of the cease-fire that ended the post-Oct. 7 war on Hamas, Abrams says that Trump’s Board of Peace is “frankly absurd” and “won’t achieve anything.” The situation in which Hamas continues to dig in and strengthen its military position in the portion of Gaza it still controls while Israel attacks and seeks to weaken the Islamists will likely continue until, probably after the next election, Jerusalem decides that it can no longer tolerate a Hamas state in Gaza, even if it is smaller than the one that existed prior to Oct. 7 and not as militarily strong. Abrams also discussed the surge in antisemitism in the United States, particularly on the right. He said President Trump and Vice President JD Vance are in a position to do something about it. The question is whether they will. Meanwhile, the Tikvah Fund leader said that American Jewry should concentrate more on strengthening their own community than on playing defense against antisemites.
