Podcast audio:

In this episode of New Ideal Live, Elan Journo and Ziemowit Gowin discuss how the Biden administration’s altruistic foreign policy undermines Israel’s war of self-defense against Hamas.

Among the topics covered:

How America’s inconsistent support of Israel subverts its war of self-defense;

How the morality of altruism leads people to unjustly blame Israel for the fallout of Hamas’ attack;

Why the altruistic decision to airdrop aid into Gaza amounts to enabling the enemy;

Why calls for an Israeli-Hamas ceasefire are delusional and immoral;

Why attempts at a “two-state solution” are among the causes of the current conflict;

Why the conflict will continue if Israel does not decisively defeat Hamas.

Mentioned in this podcast are three books: Winning the Unwinnable War (edited by Journo), Failing to Confront Islamic Totalitarianism (edited by Journo and Onkar Ghate), and What Justice Demands (written by Journo).
