    Ep. 32: "Is Qatar Targeting Black America?"

    🎙️ JCZC Podcast | Ep. 32 "Is Qatar Targeting Black America?" 🔥 QATAR'S NEW INFLUENCE CAMPAIGN EXPOSED 🔥 What is Qatar really doing inside the United States—and why now? This conversation breaks down the strategy behind the headlines, revealing a deeper geopolitical play that extends far beyond education. Simeon Myers sits down with Pastor Dumisani Washington for a detailed and provocative discussion on Qatar's growing influence in American institutions—and what its recent moves may actually signal. At the center of the conversation: Qatar's decision to shut down its education foundation in the U.S. But is it truly a withdrawal… or a repositioning? 📚 FOLLOW THE MONEY. FOLLOW THE STRATEGY. Qatar has long funded Western education—K-12 systems, universities, and academic programs. Now, as it steps back publicly, questions arise about what comes next. Dumisani argues this is not retreat—it's recalibration. 🇺🇸 A major shift is underway: increased focus on Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). This raises a critical question—why now? The discussion examines whether these investments are designed to build influence within Black American communities, using education as the entry point. But this is only part of a much larger picture. 🌍 GLOBAL CONNECTIONS. GLOBAL CONSEQUENCES. Qatar's role is examined within a broader network of alliances and ideologies: • Its ties to the Muslim Brotherhood • Strategic relationships with Turkey and Iran • Its influence in shaping narratives around Israel and global anti-Semitism These are not isolated developments—they are interconnected strategies with global implications. 🧠 THE POWER OF NARRATIVE A key focus of the episode is how history is used—and sometimes manipulated. From the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to civil rights language, the conversation explores how narratives are shaped to influence public opinion, policy, and identity. Disinformation is not accidental—it is strategic. ✊ CIVIL RIGHTS, ACTIVISM, AND INFLUENCE The discussion draws a direct line between historical civil rights movements and modern geopolitical messaging. Dumisani challenges how the language of justice can be repurposed—raising questions about who is driving certain narratives, and to what end. 🌍 AFRICA: THE OVERLOOKED FRONTLINE One of the most critical insights: Africa's growing geopolitical importance. With a rising Christian Zionist population, Africa is positioned as a potential counterweight to extremist ideologies and foreign influence. Its role in the future of global alliances may be far greater than many realize. ⚠️ THIS IS ABOUT MORE THAN EDUCATION The episode frames Qatar's actions as part of a broader influence operation—one that intersects with politics, religion, race, and global power structures. The message is clear: These developments are strategic. They are coordinated. And they demand closer attention. 👉 Watch the full conversation. Analyze the details. Draw your own conclusions.   👇Timestamps 00:00 Qatar's Education Foundation Shutdown 07:42 The Influence of Qatar in Education 15:18 Qatar's Strategy and Global Influence 19:12 HBCUs and Qatar's New Focus 27:12 The Intersection of Anti-Semitism and Civil Rights 28:21 Qatar's Civil Rights and Labor Issues 30:23 Historical Context of Slavery in the Middle East 36:04 The Brutality of Modern Slavery 43:50 The Impact of Awareness on Qatar's Image 46:58 The Future of Africa and Israel Relations   🎙️Host: Simeon Myers:  Residing in the US, Simeon oversees ARISE's day-to-day operations and initiatives.

    🎙️ JCZC Podcast | Ep. 29  "Voices From Iran the Regime Can't Silence" 🔥 THE REALITY INSIDE IRAN THEY CAN'T HIDE 🔥 What is actually happening inside Iran today? This conversation goes beyond headlines—and the details are difficult to ignore. In this episode, we speak again with Ali, an Iranian activist in hiding, who shares direct testimony about life under the regime. His account outlines a system sustained by repression, fear, and the systematic silencing of dissent. This is not abstract—it is personal. Ali describes the use of public executions, intimidation, and widespread suppression as tools of control. He recounts the story of Sevda, a 16-year-old girl, and her mother, Samira's struggle to recover her body—a case that illustrates the human impact behind broader political realities. But this is not only about individual stories—it is about structure. 🇮🇷 Inside Iran, a population continues to live under intense pressure, while narratives are shaped through propaganda and information control. Ali explains how the regime obscures its actions, including the use of civilians as shields and the manipulation of public perception. At the same time, the implications extend beyond Iran's borders. The discussion addresses Iran's nuclear ambitions and its involvement in regional conflicts through proxy groups—factors that contribute to broader instability and international concern. 💬 A MESSAGE TO THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY: Ali's position is direct. He emphasizes that the situation in Iran should not be viewed in isolation. The issues at stake—human rights, state violence, and political accountability—have global relevance. He calls for greater awareness, clearer recognition of realities on the ground, and sustained international attention. ⚠️ This is a critical moment. Ali underscores that many Iranians, both inside the country and in the diaspora, are prepared to support change. However, he stresses that external visibility and engagement may influence what comes next. 🌍 The future of Iran remains uncertain—but the stakes extend far beyond its borders. 👉 Watch the full interview to understand the perspective being shared.   👇Timestamps 00:00 - The ongoing war in Iran and its global significance  01:01 - Inside Iran: The brutal reality of executions and repression  02:01 - Ali's story of hiding and communication risks  03:43 - The regime's tactics of disconnection and control  04:40 - The horrific stories of street protests and martyrdoms  08:00 - The brutal tactics to silence dissent and the use of children as human shields  12:52 - Stories of families forced to pay with life savings for the bodies of loved ones  14:24 - International propaganda, lies, and the fight for truth  18:12 - The plans for organized resistance inside Iran and abroad  21:02 - Understanding the true enemy: regime ideology and foreign influences  22:29 - The nuclear threat of Iran  27:07 - A historical perspective on Iran's revolution  36:45 - The stark difference between Iranian people's desires and terrorist regimes  41:51 - Regional escalation and tensions 52:33 - How misinformation spreads and the importance of spreading the truth  58:09 - An urgent appeal for organizing resistance and international help   🎙️Host, Simeon Myers:   Residing in the US, Simeon oversees ARISE's day-to-day operations and initiatives.

    Ep. 28: "A Message From Iranians to the US"

    🎙️ JCZC Podcast | Ep. 28 "A Message From Iranians to the US"   🔥 **THE TRUTH ABOUT IRAN THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO HEAR** 🔥 What's really happening inside Iran right now? This powerful conversation pulls back the curtain—and what you'll hear will stay with you. Simeon and Mansur Ashkar speak with Ali Majd in a jaw-dropping, mind-blowing interview. Ali, an Iranian in hiding who has recently fled and has lived through it, delivers raw, eye-opening testimony about life under the regime. He exposes the harsh reality: a nation rich in history and culture, now suffocating under oppression, economic collapse, and the systematic erasure of its identity. But this isn't just a story of suffering—it's a story of courage.   🇮🇷 The Persian spirit is alive. The *true Iranians*—not the regime—are rising. Ali reveals that the overwhelming majority of Iranians reject the government. They are not silent. They are not compliant. They are risking everything—jobs, freedom, even their lives—for a chance at liberty. Their bravery echoes the great uprisings of history. Meanwhile, the regime's hypocrisy is laid shockingly bare: Lavish lifestyles for those in power… While ordinary people struggle just to survive. Even more shocking—how religion and culture are manipulated as tools of control.   💬 **A MESSAGE TO THE WORLD—ESPECIALLY AMERICA:** Ali speaks directly to you. He urges the United States and Western nations to recognize the truth: the Iranian people are not the enemy. They are allies in the fight for freedom. They need their voices heard—and their struggle acknowledged. Most importantly, they need your support.    ⚠️ This is a nation on the edge of transformation. Ali's message is clear and urgent: Iranians are ready for change. They are fighting for it. And they cannot do it alone.   🌍 Imagine an Iran that is free, thriving, and welcoming—a country that once again becomes a beacon of culture, peace, and possibility.   That future is closer than you think… but the world must pay attention.   👉 Watch now. Listen closely. And decide for yourself.   👇Timestamps 00:00 Understanding the Situation in Iran 12:44 Ali's Personal Journey and the Uprising 22:56 The Mentality of Iranians and Their Struggle 31:35 Negotiating with Regimes: A Complex Dilemma 33:58 The Reality of Executions in Iran 35:41 Hypocrisy in Leadership: The Duality of Power 37:56 Living in Hiding: The Perils of Speaking Out 40:22 The Fight Against Oppression: A Call to Arms 45:48 Understanding the Iranian Perspective: A Distinct Identity 51:02 Innocent Lives and Oil: The Cost of War 55:55 A Message to the World: The Voice of the People     🎙️Host: Simeon Myers:  Residing in the US, Simeon oversees ARISE's day-to-day operations and initiatives.

    Episode 27: "Is God a Zionist?" with Chris Kuehl

    🎙️ Voice For Freedom Podcast | Ep. 27 "Is God a ZIonist?" With Chris Kuehl This thought-provoking discussion dives into one of Christianity's most debated questions: Is God a Zionist? Centered on Chris Kuehl's book, the conversation unpacks a deep theological and historical divide within the Church, exploring how early beliefs about Israel shifted into replacement theology—and why many are now challenging that narrative. Blending faith, politics, and history, it examines the legitimacy of Zionism, the role of Israel in modern theology, and the moral tensions surrounding support for the Jewish state. With personal insights from Kuehl's unexpected journey into this topic, the discussion raises urgent questions about biblical promises, anti-Semitism, and what it truly means for Christians to stand for truth in today's world.   👇Timestamps 00:00 Introduction to the Controversy of Zionism 02:55 Biblical Zionism Explained 05:52 The Church's Influence on Culture 08:35 Personal Journey and Connection to Israel 11:34 Theological Tensions in Christianity 14:41 Historical Perspectives on Jewish Covenant 17:28 Dispelling Myths about Christian Zionism 20:20 Vatican II and Its Implications 23:16 The Dual Nature of Israel's Promises 26:13 Defining the Boundaries of Zionism 29:26 Contemporary Challenges and Responses 31:29 Understanding the Mosaic Covenant and Its Implications 34:53 The Spiritual Underpinnings of Anti-Semitism 37:04 The Church's Role in Supporting Israel 39:12 Historical Consequences of Anti-Semitism 42:24 The Dangers of Scapegoating the Jewish People 46:15 The Political and Historical Case for Zionism 49:45 The Practical Necessity of Supporting Israel\   🎙️Host: Simeon Myers:  Residing in the US, Simeon oversees ARISE's day-to-day operations and initiatives.

    Ep. 25: "Exclusive With Mike Huckabee"

    (Recorded February 26, 2026) Brothers Simeon and Calev Myers present an exclusive interview with United States Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee. The conversation explores the evolving relationship between Israelis and Christians, as well as the challenges facing Christian communities across the broader Middle East. They also address media portrayals of Israel, including commentary by controversial figure Tucker Carlson, and discuss Carlson's recent interview with Ambassador Huckabee. The episode later highlights the establishment of the First Judeo-Christian Zionist Congress as a significant initiative aimed at strengthening ties between Christians and Israelis in support of Israel. You won't want to miss it. 👇Timestamps   00:00 Introduction to the Discussion on Israel and Christianity 02:30 The Evolving Relationship Between Israelis and Christians 05:16 Diverse Perspectives Within Israeli Society 08:23 Legal Framework and Freedom of Religion in Israel 10:10 Contrasting Israel with Neighboring Countries 11:59 Public Opinion and Media Representation of Israel 14:45 The Reality of Christian Life in Israel vs. Surrounding Nations 17:32 Addressing Misconceptions and Half-Truths in Media 23:57 The Christian Community in Qatar 25:07 Media Responsibility and Misinformation 29:24 The Judeo-Christian Foundations of Western Civilization 34:13 The Role of Christians in Supporting Israel 41:05 Building Bridges: The Judeo-Christian Zionist Congress   👇Takeaways   Ambassador Huckabee emphasizes the positive evolution of Israeli attitudes towards Christians. The complexity of Israeli society includes a wide spectrum of views on Christianity. Christian minorities in Israel enjoy freedoms not found in neighboring countries. Media representations of Israel often focus on isolated incidents rather than the broader reality. Misinformation can distort public perception of the treatment of Christians in Israel. The Judeo-Christian Zionist Congress aims to strengthen Christian support for Israel. Freedom of religion in Israel allows for open worship and expression of faith. The collaboration between Christians and Jews is essential for the survival of Western civilization.   🎙️Guest: Ambassador Mike Huckabee:  American politician, author, and media commentator who served as the 44th Governor of Arkansas from 1996 to 2007. A longtime national figure in conservative politics, he was a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination in 2008 and 2016. Huckabee has also hosted programs on Fox News and TBN and is the author of multiple books on politics, faith, and public policy. Ambassador Huckabee is a long time friend of Israel, having visited over 100 times. He is currently serving as the United States Ambassador to Israel. 🎙️Hosts: Simeon Myers:  Residing in the US, Simeon oversees ARISE's day-to-day operations and initiatives.
