Description
FIDF Chief Executive Officer Steve Weil welcomes the Deputy Mayor of Jerusalem, Fleur Hassan-Nahoum. A soldier in the narrative war against Israel, the Deputy Mayor works to counter and dismantle the inaccurate and dangerous accusations waged against Israel as it works to defend itself from what ultimately is a clash of civilizations. Presenting compelling arguments against the forever mutating virus of antisemitism, she summarizes the ideological war Jews face in the wake of October 7th and the physical proxy war Jews face against Iran’s many terror arms. Detailing how Jerusalem has absorbed evacuees of the South, she offers her view on a Two State Solution, and finally assures viewers that Israel WILL win this War for Our Home, and that it is only a question of at what price to live, in order to live as a free people in our ancestral homeland.
Next, FIDF National Director Nadav Padan briefs us on the war on the ground. Hearteningly, he shares that we are starting to see cracks in the fight: namely that Palestinian civilians – as we saw in Rafah - feel safe enough to come onto the streets and protest their leadership, calling on Hamas to give up. Nevertheless, Hamas ignores their pleas and continues its brutal tactics. We are also witnessing terrorists in Judea and Samaria adopting their strategies. The North too changed operationally: Hezbollah is destroying empty houses in Northern border Kibbutzim; these homes belong to people who evacuated. This damage resembles what happened to homes in the South on October 7th. Simultaneously, an international naval fight continues to grow around the Red Sea and Suez Canal with Iranian support now apparent, as terrorists attempt to control key areas of commerce. Despite these many complexities, MG Padan assures viewers that the IDF’s maneuvers are succeeding and urges viewers to retain vigilance and moral clarity, for this is truly a war of good versus evil.
