What’s the truth about life in Judea and Samaria?
This week on “Judeacation,” JNS Middle East correspondent Josh Hasten welcomes Gedaliah Blum, the founder of the Heartland Initiative, to uncover the realities of Israel’s biblical heartland and the global fight for Judeo-Christian values.
Blum shares how the Heartland Initiative is building bridges between Israel and global allies, normalizing Judea and Samaria within the broader Israeli landscape and empowering pro-Israel advocates worldwide. They discuss the success of the Dapei Katom (Orange Pages) project, designed to support businesses in Judea and Samaria and counter BDS boycotts.
Josh and Gedaliah expose the media myths about life under the “occupation,” highlighting the prosperity in Palestinian Authority areas and the false narratives promoted against Israel. Gedaliah also dives into the cultural and spiritual battles taking place globally, explaining the alliance between Islamists and radical progressive movements against Judeo-Christian values.
Plus, hear Gedaliah’s powerful personal story—from a life-changing Birthright Israel trip to becoming a leader in Israel’s public diplomacy efforts.
