Just hours after NYC Mayor Eric Adams delivered a fiery speech repeating "We Are Not Alright" expressing his support of Israel and the Jewish community of New York during one of the most challenging times since the holocaust, a Jewish man was arrested after the pro-palestinian mob attacked him for handing out fliers on the way to pick up his son from school.After hearing about similar arrests in London and Atlanta to name a few, Tribe Journal visits with Omri Schwartz to hear his side of the story.At TRIBE Journal we strive to tell the untold by filling the gaps left by mainstream media.

is Uncle Sam's ROI (return on investment) for military support given to Israel to defend itself? Perhaps U.S. "aid" is the wrong word. Does the U.S. military industrial complex profits from Israel constantly needing to defend itself?
This thoughtful discussion with former Ambassador Yoram Ettinger is just the beginning of an important conversation that both the U.S. and Israel need to clarify to themselves, their voting public and their enemies who would be smart to think twice before attacking the Jewish state.

According to Col. Grisha Yakubovich Israel missed the opportunity to win the war against Hamas in 2007 when Israel did nothing to stop them from conquering the Gaza Strip. In this episode we deep dive on the perspective of Hamas, the Gazans and the rest of the Arabs living in Judea Samaria aka the West Bank. Col. Yakubovich spend decades in leadership positions prior to the intifadas and throughout. He served as a sort of "mayor" of Gaza from 2012 - 2016 and has since retired and works as a speaker and consultant initiative business initiatives in the Judea Samaria aka West Bank and Gaza.
This inside POV on the Gazan War illuminates a wide variety of misconceptions about Arabs living in Gaza and Judea Samaria (aka West Bank):- Difference between West Bankers and Gazans- Two States create economic tensions- Hamas narrative is far more effective than Fatah's- Dangerous cycle of rewarding violence- Palestinians will throw Abbas in to the "trash bin" and make Sinwar a hero- Mukawama is mistranlated as "resistance" - Is the IDF allowing illegal Arab construction in Area C?- Israeli's paid $500 billion in salaries to Gazan workers in 2021- Hamas taxes everything for revenues AND legitimacySubscribe and receive more stellar content from: www.tribejournal.org/subscribe

Why wasn't the stabbing of a rabbi who was sitting on the steps of a synagogue immediately classified as a hate crime?
Is this similar to a random stabbing of a protestor at a BLM protest or LGBTQ parade?
What are the consequences of a hate crime classification?
Why does a hate crime classification matter?
Does the timeline make a difference?
On this episode of the Tribecast, we sit down with former Assistant District Attorney, Michael Thaler, to discuss the different factors that prosecutors will consider in determining whether or not to classify a particular crime as a hate crime. The case that catalyzed our discussion involved an assailant attacking stabbing Rabbi Shlomo Noginski in Brighton, Massachusetts eight times. Rabbi Noginski was simply sitting on the stairs of a Jewish house of prayer and religious school with children inside.

Should the civil rights of Jewish students be protected due to their shared Israeli heritage?
When does criticism or hatred towards Israel cross the line into hate speech and antisemitism?
Should universities be held responsible for maintaining a safe environment for its students?
Today we visited with Adela Cojab. Although Adela tried to graduate quietly, she eventually felt compelled to stand up and be the change. Adela recently graduated from New York University (NYU) and made headlines as a student leader and member of the Jewish community on campus at NYU. Continuous threats to Jewish students on campus she forced her to take action against the University’s inaction. She filed a complaint with the United States Office of Civil Rights which the University eventually opted to settle out of court. Adela successfully sought needed change in University Policy which would offer students protection in the future. She did not seek money, she sought change. This is her story. I’m JP Katz and this is the TRIBECAST at TRIBEJOURNAL.ORG. Thanks for joining us.

Today we visit with Corey Gil-Shuster from The Ask Project, a nonprofit that creates authentic man-on-the-street videos to increase understanding about the realities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Corey is a Canadian-Israeli citizen living in Israel, and has a fascinating story about how during the second intifada he grabbed a camcorder and a translator and hit the streets to get real perspectives first hand from real people on both sides of the conflict Corey and I have never met, and likely never would have met if not for youtube. We come from different countries and in the course of conversation we found out that we identify with somewhat different communities, even though we’re both Jewish.
Our conversation starts off with the back story of The ASK project and from there we walk right up until the edge of many of the most controversial topics of our time which polarize our societies today. This is the raw conversation between two people trying to reconcile the herd psychology, propaganda and community sensitivities and how they impact our perspectives and behavior.
In our unscripted conversation, we discuss the following topics: Second Intifada (15:00) Herd Psychology & Tribalism (19:00) The Role of Media (27:45) Man on the Street (34:00) Visiting the Settlements (38:00) Religious Divides (45:30) LGBTQ+, BLM & BDS (48:00) Orthodox & Nonorthodox (59:15) Unorthodox & Propaganda (108:30) Biggest Paradigm Shift (1:16:45) Religious and Secular Israeli paradigms (1:22:45) Thanks for listening in….As with all good conversations, we’re just scratching the surface here and I hope you find this discussion both insightful and fun. As always, we’d love to hear your feedback in the comments….enjoy! I'm your host J.P. Katz and you’re listening to the TRIBECAST at TRIBE JOURNAL...a Jewish digital community podcast looking at different things... differently. www.tribejournal.org
