Join me on Israel Inside-Out as I take you on a journey to experience the sites, sounds and tastes of Israel as we meet with leading personalities from the one and only Jewish State.
In this episode of the show, I tour the Druze village of Horfesh in northern Israel, sit down to interview the former Surgeon General Of The IDF, Brigadier-General (Res.), Professor Tarif Bader, and dip into a plate of Hummus from a local eatery as I digest the conversation.
In this fascinating discussion, General Bader tells me about his commanding roles in the aid and rescue missions launched by the IDF to treat victims of the devastating earthquake in Haiti (2010) and Nepal (2015), where he oversaw the establishment of an emergency field hospital in both countries.
He also tells me about his treatment of Syrian refugees who fled the Syrian civil war into Israel and how they were treated, repatriated and saved by the IDF medical corps and the Israeli defense establishment.
General Bader also tells me about life as a member of the Druze community in Israel, his principles for good leadership and his commitment to making a positive difference in this world.

In this episode, MirYam Institute In-House Analyst, Yaakov Lappin, is joined by Col. (res.) David Hacham, former Arab Affairs Advisor to multiple Israeli Defense Ministers, to discuss the future of the Gaza Strip.
He asserts that only ongoing Israeli security control coupled with a temporary Israeli military administration can ensure that Hamas is uprooted.
They then explored why this proposal faces such fierce opposition from some voices in Israel, including from recently dismissed Israeli Defense Minister, Yoav Gallant.Support the show

In this episode of the show recorded in March 2024, Amir Tibon, brings me into his home in Kibbutz Nahal Oz.
This bullet-riddled house, recently built by him and and his wife Miri, was the place they hoped to raise their two young daughters.
On October 7th, Hamas terrorists stormed into the kibbutz and fired automatic gunfire into his home, as his entire family hid inside the family safe room. In this first segment of my conversation with Amir, he tells me how he and Miri made the decision to move from Tel Aviv and to build a life in Nahal Oz. He outlines what the atmosphere was like before October 7th and how the nightmare of that awful day began to unfold, as he feverishly contacted his colleagues and his father, desperately seeking to be rescued from an impossibly dangerous situation.

Standing in for me this week is The Miryam Institute’s in-house analyst Yaakov Lappin.
Going solo, he responds to various critiques of Israel's war effort, and argues that those who don't prioritize the need to remove terror armies from Israel's borders are advocating for future disaster.
He then explains how non-miliary, strategic benefits only belong to powers that have demonstrated their willingness to defend their core interests first.
Toward the end of the podcast, he discusses why drones remain a persistent threat, the arms race underway to mitigate that.
Finally, Yaakov expressed why building a sukkah this year is an act of Jewish resistance against Hamas's jihad.Support the show

On September 19th, 2024, The MirYam Institute hosted a robust dialogue between former Member of Knesset and former Deputy Ambassador to Egypt, Ruth Wasserman-Lande and yours truly.
The evening featured vigorous areas of agreement and disagreement centered around two specific questions:
1) Could Israel win the war against Hamas - and if so, how?
2) Does the alarming rise in anti-Semitism mean the golden era of American Jewry is over?
Audience Q&A followed the conversation.

In this episode, I sit down with Yaakov Lappin to discuss what has been an horrific year for Israel and the Jewish people. We did so from a deeply subdued Israel, a country still grappling with all that has befallen it over the past twelve months and which is still deeply embroiled in its response to the ongoing threats that started on October 7th.
In an effort to provide you with some unique and different perspectives, we assessed the ramifications of the following topics:
1) The 1200 Israelis murdered on October 7th
2) The ongoing hostage crisis
3) The 300,000 soldiers drafted into service
4) The fissures in Israeli society
5) Israel's place among the nations

In this episode, I'm joined by Yaakov Lappin to discuss the implications of the elimination of Hassan Nasrallah and how Israel ought to respond to the second ballistic missile attack from Iran.
We outline why it's time to hit Iran's nuclear program and their economy and explain why Israel's enemies have been allowed to trade on an unfounded schoolyard "rep" for far too long.

In part two of my conversation with John Spencer, I ask him whether he believes that the global criticism against the actions of the IDF is the result of an anti-Israel, anti-Semitic bias and he compares and contrasts the strategic implications of Israel's casualty-averse approach to warfare vs. Hamas's readiness to sacrifice Gazan civilians in pursuit of their terror agenda.
I also ask him how confident he would be if one of his children was drafted to the IDF in the post October 7th era and John marvels at the ingenuity and adaptability of Israel's campaign inside the Gaza Strip.
We finish with me challenging his description of himself as the Forrest Gump of the U.S. military!

This episode features my in-person conversation with John Spencer, the Chair Of Urban Warfare Studies at the United States Military Academy at West Point.
Recorded on July 28th, 2024, this in-person discussion was recorded just a few days after John's work was referenced by Benjamin Netanyahu in his speech to a joint session of the U.S. Congress, as the Israel premier pressed the case for Israel in the most important legislative body in the world.
In this segment, I ask John to reflect on the fact that his scholarship is regularly referenced by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in order to debunk media falsehoods against Israel's prosecution of the war inside Gaza against Hamas and his feelings about his work being one of the only sources Israelis can echo and invoke at this time.
Given that his department is at West Point, I ask him for his thoughts on the importance of the annual Israel Strategy and Policy Tour (I-SAP) that The MirYam Institute arranges for cadets and future officers enrolled at the academy and I also ask John whether he agrees with my belief that a military victory against Hamas is achievable.
He also tells me why he believes himself to be a real-life Forrest Gump and asserts that events beyond his control have consistently placed him in the right place at the right moment.

We delve into the IDF's reutrn to Khan Yunis, the intensification of operations in Rafah and the emerging and potentially tightening alliance between Iran and Russia as Israel awaits Iran's declared attack on Israeli territory.
We also discuss Yaakov's brilliant policy memo outlining why he believes Israel must ditch the policy of deterrence and we round out the program by providing our thoughts on the unrest currently sweeping the streets of Britain and I call it what it is!

In this episode, I’m joined by Frank Sobchak (PhD), a retired Colonel with 26 years of military service that included leading Special Forces teams and companies, including in Iraq.
Frank is an alumnus of The MirYam Institute Israel Law & Policy tour (I-LAP) for graduate and doctoral students and was The MirYam Institute visiting professor to Reichman University in Israel this spring.
In this conversation, we talk about the open-source intelligence that Hamas collected and used to plan and execute the October 7th massacre, what the place of military service is in the lives of the men who do serve, his reflections of his recent teaching period in Israel during wartime and the potential implications of Israel’s targeted killings in Gaza, Lebanon and Tehran.Support the show

Every year, The MirYam Institute brings delegations of current and future military officers to Poland and then directly on to Israel for a 12 day tour of the country through the I-SAP tour initiative (Israel Strategy & Policy).
This summer, The MirYam Institute created a delegation for future officers of the U.S. Army, Navy, Air-Force and Marine Corps to Poland, to visit the Nazi death camps, as well as the damage and destruction carried out against the Jews of Europe.
This year, due to Israel’s ongoing war against Hamas, the I-SAP tour could not travel to Israel from Poland, so we brought the delegation for an extended tour of Poland and brought several Israeli speakers to the delegation, including the son of a hostage being held by Hamas and a civilian whose rapid response unit fought off an attack by eighty Hamas terrorists on October 7th.
Here, Colonel Dave (Ret.), explains why the I-SAP tour is of such value to the education and understanding of the delegates, as they prepare to become leaders and officers within the U.S. Armed Forces.

In this episode, I'm joined by Yaakov Lappin to take a candid look at PM Netanyahu's address to a joint session of the U.S. Congress, with a particular emphasis on the question of the PM's vision of the "day after" in Gaza.
We also then delve into the declining support for Israel within the U.S. Congress, The New State Solution, a policy position once presented to the negotiating team of the Trump administration, and then top off the conversation by discussing the IDF's recovery of five Israelis who were killed on October 7th and abducted into the Gaza Strip and the events that took place in the aftermath of that operation.To watch the video I referenced about the New State Solution, you can click on the link here.
