The Benjamin Anthony Show from the MirYam Institute

In this episode of Opinionated, I speak with Bret Stephens, who reflects on how Jews have the “honor of being hated,” a realization that struck him on October 8th during a Times Square demonstration. 
We discuss how this perspective underscores the need for Jews to build resilient institutions and a strong sense of identity. 
I then talk with Dan Perry about Israel’s difficult choices in the Palestinian territories, weighing the realities of Hamas, occupation, and the Palestinian Authority, and the necessity of pragmatic decisions to protect Israeli lives. 
Finally, in ON ANOTHER NOTE I offer a personal commentary on the through-line that links strong Israel with a strong Jewish Diaspora, and why Israel must destroy Hamas inside Gaza.

In this episode of Opinionated I speak with Col. Richard Kemp about a brewing civil war in Britain, U.S.–Iran negotiations, and the potential for renewed fighting in Gaza.
I then talk with Professor Daphne Richemond-Barak about a “silent academic boycott” targeting Israeli and Jewish scholars throughout the U.S. and Europe. 
Finally, I offer a personal commentary on the need for American Jewish communities to fortify themselves and their facilities amid rising antisemitism.

In this episode of Opinionated, H.R. McMaster joins me to lodge his prediction on whether or not the U.S. will launch a strike against Iran. He also warned against isolationism, and praised the Israeli national security mindset. 
Next, retired IDF General Noam Tibon discussed his decision to enter the Israeli political fray and to join Yair Lapids Yesh Atid party. 
Finally, I tackled those overseas voices who continue the absurd call for Israel to enter into negotiations toward a Two State Solution.
Enjoy!

Opinionated is my new weekly T.V. show, broadcast every Thursday on I-24 News. 
Each episode features pointed commentary, robust discussion and hard-hitting interviews. 
In this episode, I’m joined by U.S. Senator John Fetterman who weighs in on his steadfast support of Israel, his views on whether another strike on Iran is coming and what the future of the Democratic party looks like. 
Professor Alan Dershowitz wasted no words excoriating several American universities for allowing unchecked anti-Semistism to spread throughout too many campuses, the collapse of the two-state paradigm, and why Israeli strength remains the foundation for any future peace.
I close out the show with “ON ANOTHER NOTE” — my personal reflection on Israel’s wounded and fallen and our responsibility to defend their legacy.
