In this episode, Ysabella Hazan — a lawyer, activist, Moroccan Jew, and outspoken pro-Israel advocate — breaks down the history of U.S.-Israel relations, the Iran issue, the Strait of Hormuz, Hezbollah in Lebanon, American pressure on Israel, and why Israel may need to become far more militarily independent.
We discuss the idea that America wants Israel to maintain a “competitive edge,” but not necessarily to win outright. Ysabella argues that this pattern goes back decades, including America’s reaction to Israel’s 1981 Operation Opera strike against Iraq’s nuclear program, and continues today with pressure around Iran, Lebanon, Hezbollah, Judea and Samaria, and Israeli military decisions.
We also get into Jewish leadership, the “shtetl mentality,” Israeli dependence on American approval, why Jews may be uncomfortable with power, and what it would mean for Israel to finally act with full conviction.
This is a powerful conversation about Israel, Jewish sovereignty, U.S. foreign policy, Iran, Hezbollah, and the future of the Jewish people.
