In this week’s “The Yishai Fleisher Show,” Yishai is in Hebron, thinking about the world’s Abrahamic heritage and responding to American comedian/TV host Jon Stewart’s bad prescriptions for peace.

Then, did red heifers play a role in triggering the Oct. 7 massacre? And finally, Ben Bresky on Max Nordau, and the history of the Tomb of the Mamas and the Papas.

Produced by Yishai Fleisher and the Land of Israel network and part of JNS’s library, “The Yishai Fleisher Show” is a popular English-language podcast exploring Israeli life, politics and Jewish thought.

Drawing on his experience as a journalist, legal and biblical scholar, Israel Defense Forces soldier and spokesman for the Jewish Community of Hebron, Fleisher sheds light on everything from global and Middle East news to weekly Bible/Torah study, health, family, and, of course, the amazing rebirth of Israel.

Yishai Fleisher is the international spokesman for the Jewish community of Hebron and an advisor to Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir.
Cairo has taken on the role of mediator, but local media is clearly leaning toward Tehran.

“We will not rest in the mission to stop the spread of radical Islam,” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott stated.
The panel conducts research on antisemitic activity and works with public and private entities on statewide initiatives on Holocaust and genocide education.
“If it’s something that families are attuned to, then I think it may be a good way to engage the kids on that level,” Rabbi Steven Burg, of Aish, told JNS.
“I was a little surprised at the U.K. to be honest with you,” U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House. “They should have acted a lot faster.”
