On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh cites expert analysis explaining Israel’s positions in regard to the crisis between Russia and the Ukraine.

Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria Oh My

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, Josh touches on the the various fronts from north to south, in which Israel was forced to act militarily in self defense over the course of this past week. Another rocket was fired by Gazan terrorists at Israel’s southern communities over the weekend accompanied by additional Hamas threats. The IDF responded by striking Hamas terror targets. At the same Israel has uncovered a sixth Hezbollah terror tunnel from Lebanon as part of its ‘Operation Northern Shield.’ Also, Prime Minister Netanyahu opened his cabinet meeting on Sunday admitting that Israel was behind a strike on an Iranian arms warehouses in Damascus, Syria a day earlier. Never a dull moment in the Jewish State or in the Middle East!

Ambassador Ettinger’s Expert Analysis on US/Israel Relations

On today’s Israel Uncensored with Josh Hasten, an interview with Ambassador Yoram Ettinger, Israel’s former Minister for Congressional Affairs in Washington and expert on US/Israel relations. Amb. Ettinger says that it’s a mistake to think that a US troop pullout from Syria will damage Israel’s security. In regard to US National Security Adviser John Bolton’s current trip to the region, Ettinger talks about how Bolton has relentlessly stood by the Jewish State for many years. He adds that instead of introducing the delayed US peace plan between Israel and the Arabs under the PA, the US should focus on the Iranian threat and other Middle East conflicts which are contributing towards instability in the region.

Why the Fuss Over Israel’s Jewish Nation-State Law?

On today’s Israel Uncensored, as I sit down to record the show, sirens blare out over northern Israel. Israel’s Home-Front Command indicated that the projectiles launched from Syria were fired as part of that country’s civil war, and were not aimed at Israel.
