1:01:43Now PlayingIsrael is facing an unusual demographic warning sign: more Israelis are leaving than arriving — and many of those departing are among the country's highly educated and higher-earning citizens.
In Episode 81 of Cold War 2.0, historian Tarik Cyril Amar joins Kevork Almassian to examine whether Israel's emerging emigration and brain-drain problem is temporary — or a symptom of a deeper crisis affecting its economy, society and military.
The conversation also turns to mounting problems aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, where reports have raised serious concerns about exhaustion and the mental health of sailors after an exceptionally long deployment. The episode examines what the strain on the carrier's crew may reveal about the human costs and limits of America's global military posture.
Also discussed: Volodymyr Zelensky's visit to Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić's balancing act between Russia and Europe, the controversy surrounding a German journalist asking how Europe could help Ukraine "kill more Russians," and newly released North Korean footage showing DPRK troops participating in combat operations in Russia's Kursk region.
Finally, Kevork and Tarik examine the increasingly visible Russia–North Korea military partnership and what it tells us about the consolidation of rival geopolitical blocs in an emerging multipolar order. Tarik argues that military cooperation between Moscow and Pyongyang corresponds both to their treaty relationship and their mutual strategic interests.
