Biden Administration Making all the Wrong Moves

On this week’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh discusses all the wrong moves made by the US Biden Administration in regard to Israel and the Middle East, while world Jewry was busy celebrating Passover. From launching indirect talks with Iran, to once again labeling Israel as an “occupier” in Judea and Samaria, from refunding the Palestinian Authority, to lifting sanctions on the ICC prosecutor, Josh says that on all of these issues, the administration is doing what it can to undo the accomplishments of the Trump administration and ultimately harm Israel’s interests.

Netanyahu Campaigning in Judea/Samaria

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh discusses some of the comments made by Prime Minister Netanyahu on a visit yesterday to Gush Etzion. The Prime Minister promised that if elected to another term he would work on authorizing some of the “young communities,” throughout Judea and Samaria, which have received government support but have not gotten a final stamp of approval. The Prime Minister used his visit to make his case as to why the Israeli public should back his Likud Party in the March 23 Knesset Elections.

BDS in Cahoots with Terrorists

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, a Jerusalem Post report reveals that at least 60 anti-Israel BDS groups recently took part in two online events led by leaders from Iran, Hamas, and other terror organizations. The fact that BDS groups are in direct cahoots with these terrorist entities proves that their true mission isn’t to encourage the boycotting of Israel, or to improve Arab lives, but rather their goal is to destroy the Jewish State.

Israel Weighs Response to Attacked Cargo Ship

Israel’s top officials are pointing a finger at Iran over an attack on an Israeli cargo ship this week in the Gulf of Oman. Pundits are now discussing what a potential response would be by Israel over this aggression. No injuries were reported, as the ship made its way to Dubai, for repair. With the US seeking to reenter the bad Iranian nuclear deal in some form, Israel might need to focus on its new close ties with Arab Gulf-States to thwart Iran’s nuclear and world-wide terror ambitions. This story plus all the latest news from Israel on this week’s edition of Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten.

Comparing Kindergartens to Terrorism

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, the US State Department Spokesman called on Israel the other day to refrain from building in Judea and Samaria and in the same breath called on the PA to stop paying the salaries of terrorists. Can a comparison really be made between the construction of new kindergartens, and terrorist rewards for murdering Israeli civilians? The new US State Department apparently thinks so. Plus for the first time ever the KKL-JNF is considering to openly fund the purchase of land from Arabs in Judea and Samaria in order to help develop more Jewish communities there. The final vote on the matter will be held after Israel’s elections. Plus all the latest news from Israel on this week’s show.

Fake War Crimes = Pure Anti-Semitism

The International Criminal Court (ICC) this week ruled that it has jurisdiction to open war crimes investigations against Israel. Prime Minister Netanyhau referred to the decision as “pure anti-Semitism.” Many other Israeli leaders also took the court to task for putting Israel on the same playing field as Hamas and other terror organizations. While this is only the beginning, on this week’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, hear what some experts are saying in terms of how Israel should approach the ICC’s unfounded and purely political decision. Plus all the latest news for Israel on this week’s show.

Terror at Home and Abroad

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh discusses the blast which took place near the Israeli Embassy in New Delhi on Friday. Many believe the explosion was a warning shot sent by an Iranian-backed terror group who may be planning future attacks against Israeli targets in that area of the world. At the same time here in Israel, an Arab terrorist tried to carry out a stabbing attack at the Gush Etzion Junction yesterday. Thanks to an alert IDF soldier, the terrorist was killed before he could inflict any damage. These stories plus all the latest news from Israel, on this week’s show.

Should Groups Accusing Israel of Apartheid be Allowed into Schools?

On today’s edition of Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten expresses his approval of the Education Ministry’s decision to ban the organization B’Tselem from speaking in Israeli schools, after the group decided to accuse Israel of being an Apartheid State. While some believe Israeli youth should be exposed to all views in order to decide on the issues for themselves, Josh asks, “where is the line?” Should Arab terrorists, neo-Nazis, or others be allowed into schools in the name of freedom of speech? At the same time Josh says that accusing Israel of Apartheid is an insult to those who experienced true Apartheid in South Africa. Plus, for the first time since the establishment of the State, Aliyah has been put on hold for a week, as the government has ordered the closure of Ben-Gurion airport in order to stifle the various corona virus mutations, which have made their way into the country.

How Does One Mistakenly Pass Out Textbooks Calling for Jihad?

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, the United Nations agency responsible for helping so-called “Palestinian refugees,” known as UNRWA says it “mistakenly included” children’s school textbooks for PA kids, which praised jihad and called for Israel’s destruction. Josh isn’t buying UNRWA’s claims of a mistake pointing out that UNRWA schools have been inciting against the Jewish State for decades through their teachings and textbooks. He says that perhaps the only mistake they made was not including enough Jew/Israel hated in their books, as they continue to keep their residents in squalor while blaming Israel for their population’s woes.

Is a Storming of the Knesset Possible?

On this week’s Israel Uncensored, Josh Hasten says that following last week’s violent breach into the US Capitol Building in Washington D.C., many are asking, ‘can something similar happen in Israel?’ With rampant pro and anti Netanyahu demonstrations these days, and with many other segments of society taking to the streets for their respective causes, can it get to the point where Israeli citizens threaten to storm the Knesset? At the same time, even with dangerous unprecedented censorship coming from the social media giants, Josh says that cooler heads in Israel must prevail. Plus all the latest information on the coronavirus pandemic as Israel is in the midst of a third lockdown. While Israel is taking the world lead in vaccinations, other countries are asking the Jewish State for help in this massive inoculation initiative for their people. Perhaps certain countries will be grateful and vote against anti-Israel resolutions in world bodies as a ‘thank you.’ Time will tell.
