Yoga, Ahimsa & The Tragedy Of War

The Yoga of War Podcast with Shana Meyerson features conversations and insights on the moral implications of the Israel-Gaza War from a wide variety of pro-Israel voices and perspectives.

Ahimsa is nonviolence and a cornerstone of yogic living. War is something to be avoided whenever possible, but also (per the Bhagavad Gita) a moral imperative when it comes to defending yourself and your community.

After the massacre and unthinkable atrocities of October 7, 2023, Israel had no choice but to go to war and finally defeat its enemies on seven fronts, starting with Hamas in Gaza.

The IDF takes extraordinary measures literally unheard of in the history of warfare to mitigate civilian casualties, but tragically, every war results in civilian deaths. That is an inevitable reality.

To support Israel in this war isn’t to support war nor is it to ignore the horrors occurring in Gaza. It is to support the right of a nation to defend itself and its people in hopes of peace on both sides of the border.

There’s a lot of talk about Israeli settlements these days. New York Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani brought the question of international legality to the forefront this week in the wake of violent anti-Israel riots at the Park East Synagogue. And then we saw the same in London.In this video, Shana Meyerson addresses these anti-Zionist claims and looks into the actual legal and moral implications of the debate. Are Jewish settlements illegal? Are they legal?

🔇 YOGA OF WAR PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEk7dn2pk4QXmLMnBCB80yQXIIcBDYsi0 🔇From just about any river to just about any sea these days, you will hear so-called Progressive protestors calling to globalize the Intifada.To be perfectly frank, there is nothing "progressive" about Intifada. Despite what a mealy mouthed Mamdani may try to publicly claim, Intifada is the Palestinian movement of violently murdering Israelis and Jews wherever they can find them. It is an open call for terrorism based in a centuries' old hatred of Jews and the West.Personal criticism of Israel's War on Terror is legitimate in nature. Calling for the murder of any people on earth--yes, Jews included--is not. How is it that the so-called Progressive Left has been so consumed with antisemitic hatred and violence when they pride themselves on being the guardians of morality and decency? In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Uri Kaufman discuss his book "American Intifada: Israel, the Gaza War and the New Antisemitism," where he examines this very question and provides some very provocative and often disturbing answers.If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks the words "globalize the intifada" are a call for peace or justice, you owe it to yourself to listen to this conversation about the dangerous Progressive agenda to destroy the Jewish State and delegitimize the Jewish people.GET URI KAUFMAN'S BOOK, "AMERICAN INTIFADA: ISRAEL, THE GAZA WAR AND THE NEW ANTISEMITISM": https://amzn.to/4hZ1gAdGET URI KAUFMAN'S BOOK, "EIGHTEEN DAYS IN OCTOBER: THE YOM KIPPUR WAR AND HOW IT CREATED THE MODERN MIDDLE EAST": https://amzn.to/47KA8l2In addition to American Intifada: Israel, the Gaza War and the New Antisemitism (Republic, 2025), Uri Kaufman is the author of Eighteen Days in October: The Yom Kippur War and How it Created the Modern Middle East (St. Martin’s, 2023), selected by The Financial Times in 2023 as one of the year’s best history books.

🔇 YOGA OF WAR PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEk7dn2pk4QXmLMnBCB80yQXIIcBDYsi0 🔇If you've been to Israel since October 7, 2023, you have seen the stickers that adorn every lightpost, every bench, every window, every wall...and, particularly in Tel Aviv, every inch.These ubiquitous micro-memorials each pay tribute to a fallen Israeli with a photo, a name, and an inspirational quote. Each and every one honoring an Israeli hero, an inspiration, and a universe.It's easy to walk by these tiny tributes without notice, or to look for a minute and go on with your day. But Jeff Weiss did just the opposite. He started reading the stickers and he wanted more.He wanted to learn the story of each person's life and to share it with the world. To create a precious online memorial that will bear testament even after the stickers fade.Jeff created Stickers of Meaning as a gift to Am Yisrael. A nation that forever bleeds for its fallen and stands tall and strong with its warriors.In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Jeff Weiss ( @StickersofMeaning ) discuss Israel's unique society of veterans and its extraordinary commitment to its fallen soldiers.If you are a yogi or yogini who can't grasp the concept of a peaceful warrior you owe it to yourself to listen to this conversation about the indestructible soul of a nation that fights and prays and celebrates and grieves as one, against all odds.EXPERIENCE THE STICKERS OF MEANING ARCHIVE: https://stickersofmeaning.orgREAD JEFF'S BOOK, "FIGHTING BACK": https://amzn.to/3JSYkIAWHERE TO FIND JEFF:WEBSITE: https://www.jeffreyweissauthor.comLINKEDIN: www.linkedin.com/in/jeffrey-l-weissINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/jeffrey.weiss.author/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/jeffrey.weiss.authorJeff Weiss lives in Tel Aviv, where in 2024 he founded Stickers of Meaning, a project that preserves and educates about the memorial stickers that have appeared throughout Israel since October 7, 2023—honoring the fallen and inspiring the living with messages of love, purpose, daring, and joy.Jeff is the co-author of Fighting Back: Stan Andrews and the Birth of the Israeli Air Force, and I Am My Brother’s Keeper: American Volunteers in Israel’s War for Independence.

🔇YOGA OF WAR ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEk7dn2pk4QXmLMnBCB80yQXIIcBDYsi0Everybody knows the Jews control Hollywood. The Jews control movies. The Jews control television. And, of course, the Jews control music. And if you believe that, you are ignorant at best, and an antisemite at worst.This ridiculous accusation is nothing more than a modern permutation of the centuries-old “Jews control the world” blood libel. Need proof? Look at the morally reprehensible response of the entertainment industry to the vicious and barbaric October 7th Hamas terrorist attacks. In any other world, such animalistic savagery would be denounced in the strongest of terms. In the entertainment world, it is celebrated.Very few entertainers have had the moral clarity and fortitude to stand up against this terror. To stand up for the Jews. John Ondrasik is one of the few. A virtuous voice singing above the cacophony. Fearlessly fighting the evil that has consumed the intoxicated industry around him. In this conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and John Ondrasik discuss antisemitism in entertainment, tribalism, and the role of pop culture in shaping public opinion.If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks a red hand pin is a call for justice, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about moral clarity and cowardice in a world that's gone wild with wokeness and has lost its own voice in the process.WHERE TO FIND JOHN ONDRASIK:WEBSITE: https://fiveforfighting.comSPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/artist/7FgMLbnZVrEnir95O0YujAAPPLE MUSIC: https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/five-for-fighting/id468280X: https://twitter.com/johnondrasikINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/fiveforfightingmusicFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/fiveforfightingJohn Ondrasik, the creative force behind the Grammy-nominated band Five for Fighting, has captivated audiences for over two decades with his poignant songwriting and unique falsetto voice. Best known for hits like "Superman" and "100 Years," Ondrasik's music has amassed over a billion streams and has been featured in numerous films and TV shows. He is profoundly dedicated to honoring heroes and advocating for change through music.Recently, Ondrasik changed the lyrics to iconic song, “Superman,” which became an anthem for first responders after 9/11, to take on new meaning as a tribute to Alon Ohel, the 24-year-old, (now former) hostage who was held by Hamas for more than 700 days since the October 7 attacks.

🎥 YOGA OF WAR ON YOUTUBE: https://tinyurl.com/2w7hbndcPeople love dead Jews.Dead Jews may have been murdered or massacred or burnt alive or gassed or...the list goes on. But we all know that dead Jews deserve our sympathy. For hours! Or even days! But, really, that's about the limit.Ultimately, the problem with dead Jews is that in this day and age, Jews are not allowed to be victims. They can only be aggressors. Jews are not allowed to be the oppressed, only the oppressors. Even when, in actuality, the Jewish People are, by far, the most oppressed and victimized group in history.But that doesn't fit the narrative. That is so uncomfortable. Because the thing that makes the Jews different is that they don't wallow in their victimhood. They transcend it and climb to incredible heights, shattering the pervasive oppressor-oppressed paradigm that is so du jour these days.There's one easy way to fix that, especially in the Information Age: rewrite history. Rewrite and revise until the victim becomes the aggressor, the oppressed becomes the oppressor. Then all will be right in the world.Or will it?In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and return guest, Thane Rosenbaum, discuss the phenomenon and dangers of revisionist history even as it is being rewritten before our very eyes.If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks Israel started the war in Gaza, you owe it to yourself to listen to this conversation about lies, propaganda, and how whitewashing history can also brainwash your mind.GET THANE'S BOOK, "BEYOND PROPORTIONALITY: ISRAEL'S JUST WAR IN GAZA": https://amzn.to/459tvWVWHERE TO FIND THANE ROSENBAUM:WEBSITE: https://thanerosenbaum.comFORUM ON LIFE, CULTURE & SOCIETY: https://folcs.orgFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/thane.rosenbaumX: https://twitter.com/thanerosenbaumINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/thane.rosenbaum/JEWISH JOURNAL: https://jewishjournal.com/author/thanerosenbaum/YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@thanerosenbaum592Thane Rosenbaum is a law professor, legal and Middle East analyst, novelist, essayist, and Distinguished University Professor at Touro University, where he directs the Forum on Life, Culture & Society.

🎥 YOGA OF WAR PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEk7dn2pk4QXmLMnBCB80yQXIIcBDYsi0 🎥 When is never? Because "never again" was considered a moral imperative on October 6, 2023. And then on October 7, it happened again. Not just the unimaginable terror that Hamas unfurled on the innocent civilians of Israel, the world's only Jewish State, but the utterly shameful and unmitigated moral turpitude of a global community that has fallen all over itself to defend the terrorists, even as it narcissistically prides itself on its social justice and lofty ideals.And, even in the quiet of a ceasefire, their calls for Intifada and jihad get louder and louder, ratcheting up the Islamic war on the Jews and, quite frankly, their war on the West.So, is never again now? Again?Or is it just until next time?In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Jake Wallis Simons discuss the historical significance of the post-October 7th reality as it relates to the Jews, the Jewish State, and the world at large. If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks that social justice can only be realized "from the river to the sea," you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about the sickness and blindness of a world so intoxicated by antisemitic propaganda that it cannot even recognize the cancer of hatred, even as it consumes them.GET JAKE WALLIS SIMON'S NEWEST BOOK, "NEVER AGAIN?: HOW THE WEST BETRAYED THE JEWS AND ITSELF": https://amzn.to/3WKlvHQGET JAKE'S BOOK, "ISRAELOPHOBIA": https://amzn.to/4o4uS1mWHERE TO FIND JAKE WALLIS SIMONS:SUBSTACK: https://jakewallissimons.substack.comX: https://x.com/jakewsimonsINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/jakewallissimons/Jake Wallis Simons is a columnist, broadcaster, and foreign correspondent.

That place where you learned to ask questions and critically think?That place is gone.Gone and replaced with a new agenda not of teaching and learning, but of programming and indoctrination. Our American children are no longer encouraged to think for themselves, but to groupthink according to the intersectional ideology of an educational hierarchy that is largely controlled by the anti-American--and profoundly antisemitic--Red/Green Alliance.In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Dillon Hosier ( ⁨@icanaction⁩ ) discuss the dangers of an educational system that no longer serves its students, but instead its own agenda. If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks that ethnic studies is about rights and equality, you owe it to yourself to listen to this conversation about how ethnic studies are being weaponized in a way that delegitimizes the Jewish State, demonizes the Jewish People, and undermines our entire nation's moral fabric.WHERE TO FIND DILLON HOSIER:INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/dillon.hosier/X: https://x.com/DillonHosierFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/DillonLHosierLINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonhosier/ICAN: https://icanaction.org/Dillon Hosier is the Chief Executive Officer at ICAN, the Israeli-American Civic Action Network, an organization dedicated to empowering Israeli and American grassroots activists and leaders to create change for a better America, a more secure Israel, and a stronger U.S.-Israel alliance.

🎥 YOGA OF WAR ON YOUTUBE: https://tinyurl.com/2w7hbndcIt's October 7th, 2025.Two years ago today, thousands of Hamas terrorists and “innocent Gazan civilians” flooded into Israel to bake babies, behead men, rape women, massacre Holocaust victims, and brutally kidnap children. Oh, and dismember kibbutzniks, declare open season on concert-goers, and burn down entire communities.Today, 48 hostages, both alive & murdered, remain in Hamas captivity where they are starved, tortured and manipulated as pawns in a sick game of psychological terror levied on Israel & the Jewish world.The world’s response: “Ho hum. Let’s talk about dead Gazan babies.”There’s been an anti-Israel disinformation campaign frantically whitewashing the atrocities of 10/7, sometimes to the point of actual erasure.As we watch dangerous historical revisionism unfurl its blood-red carpet across the internet, the voices of those who keep the memories alive are those who will ultimately set the historical and moral record straight.Thane Rosenbaum is one of those voices.In this conversation, Shana Meyerson and return guest, Thane Rosenbaum, discuss the importance of this moment, the history that preceded it, and the accuracy of the historical record to follow.

Tragically, the Torah says a lot about religious war on the Jews. And the history books say even more.What we are witnessing now from the Islamic terrorists is nothing new. It's nothing new from them and it's nothing new from the world at large. Why is it that religion and war seem to go hand-in-hand when war seems so utterly antithetical to the very concept of religion?In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Hillel Fuld ( @hilzfuld ) discuss Torah, war, morality and impossible choices in what sure seem like truly biblical times. If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks that Israel is evil, you owe it to yourself to listen to this conversation about how closely the Bhagavad Gita mirrors the Torah itself and what it means to fight a war of self-preservation and defense.HILLEL FULD CAN BE FOUND AT: https://www.hillelfuld.com/SUBSCRIBE TO HILLEL ON YOUTUBE AT: https://www.youtube.com/@hilzfuldFOLLOW HILLEL ON X AT: twitter.com/hilzfuld FOLLOW HILLEL ON INSTAGRAM AT: instagram.com/hilzfuldFOLLOW HILLEL ON FACEBOOK AT: https://www.facebook.com/HillelFuldDubbed Israel's top marketer, journalist, and social influencer, Hillel Fuld works with leading tech entrepreneurs, investors, and visionaries to accompany them on their journey from idea to revenue.

Tinashe Peter (the artist formerly known as Aquarius Waive) is a man of tremendous faith and moral conviction.If you have followed him on social media the past two years, you have witnessed a radical transformation. Truly an awakening. A repudiation of the Woke. A return to God.Sometimes names are Divine, and they define not just a person, but a purpose. Tinashe means God is With Us. And as his relationship with God has evolved, so has his perspective. Recently, Tinashe has become a staunch and vocal supporter of Israel, of the Jewish People, and of traditional biblical morality. In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and @Tinashe_Peter discuss his personal evolution and how it led him to a profound understanding of the Jewish State and its ongoing war on terror. If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks that calling for intifada is a call for social justice, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about the societal dangers of intersectionality, antisemitism, and Godless civilization.WHERE TO FIND TINASHE PETER:YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@Tinashe_PeterTIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@tinashe_peterINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/tinashepeter_/X: https://x.com/tinashe__peterTINASHE PETER BIO: "Born in Zimbabwe, and raised in the United States, I’ve always been an outsider looking in. A search for identity was always the hallmark of my experience, This search led me into the darkest spaces, back into the light. I searched for meaning in everything from drugs to pseudo-spiritualities, yet nothing seemed to satisfy, not even a change of my very own name could give me what the true and living God could. And so, after a lifetime's worth of searching for the truth, the Truth has now found me again, leading me to return back to my name of origin, Tinashe Peter, and along with this Truth, has come the unraveling of the all too often, unpopular opinions that contradict the many lives we are fed on a daily basis by mainstream media outlets."🎥 YOGA OF WAR PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEk7dn2pk4QXmLMnBCB80yQXIIcBDYsi0 🎥 🪂 🤸 ALSO BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE "A PARATROOPER AND A YOGI WALK INTO A BAR..."

🔇 YOGA OF WAR PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEk7dn2pk4QXmLMnBCB80yQXIIcBDYsi0 🔇Impossible to imagine. But try.Try to imagine being at Burning Man, or Coachella, or Glastonbury, or Tomorrowland. Thousands of people, celebrating music and life and love and nature and peace.And then imagine bands of terrorists flooding the festival, both on the ground and from the air, and savagely massacring 365, kidnapping 44, and raping, terrorizing, brutalizing and torturing hundreds more, as the rest scrambled through the killing fields in a desperate attempt to save their lives.It sounds like a horror film, but it happened. And Eitan Halley was there.Miraculously escaping Nova, Eitan found himself hiding in a tiny roadside bomb shelter along with dozens of other partygoers, including Hersh Goldberg Polin and Aner Shapira.Hamas terrorists ambushed the shelter, and Aner heroically threw back multiple live grenades before tragically losing his life. Hersh's arm was blown off in the attack and he was brutally abducted to Gaza and eventually murdered. And Eitan took decisive action, throwing back multiple live grenades himself before being wounded and knocked unconscious.Lying in a pile of murdered bodies, Eitan miraculously survived. He displayed extraordinary courage, stepping into danger to protect others during one of Israel’s darkest days. His incredible story, featured in the Paramount documentary We Will Dance Again, is a testament to resilience, heroism, and the strength of the human spirit.In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Eitan Halley discuss surviving Nova, living in the aftermath, and finding new meaning in the process of recovery. If you are a yogi or yogini who cannot empathize with the Nova Music Festival-goers who endured the most unspeakable horrors on October 7, 2023, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about terror, survival, and true resilience in the shadow of pure evil.FOLLOW EITAN ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/eitanhalleyVISIT THE NOVA EXHIBITION: https://www.novaexhibition.com/SUPPORT THE NOVA SURVIVORS: https://www.safeheartil.com/en/donations-main WATCH THE "WE WILL DANCE AGAIN" DOCUMENTARY: https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B0DG7BS7XF/SEE MY 45-MINUTE VIDEO IF THE NOVA EXHIBITION: https://www.facebook.com/YOGAthletica/videos/782509517178684🪂 🤸 ALSO BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE "A PARATROOPER AND A YOGI WALK INTO A BAR..."

It's 9/11.Twenty-four years ago today, Al-Qaeda exploded the Twin Towers in the worst terrorist attack to ever occur on US soil. The world was stunned and would never be the same.Islamic terror became a prominent global threat but something remarkable happened. It was a slow creep, in response to a very carefully crafted propaganda campaign, but the West started rallying in the terrorists’ defense.Decades later, as the world witnessed the savage, bestial Hamas atrocities perpetrated against Israel on October 7, 2023, it cheered. One month later, TikTok was flooded with celebrations of Osama Bin Laden’s “Letter to America” manifesto. The brainwashing was now complete, and legions of the lost have been marching to their own demise ever since.As a young woman, Dalia Ziada would likely have been at the front of that pack, calling for death to the Jews & to Israel. But something remarkable happened. She woke up to the mortifying reality of the terror and hatred she was indoctrinated to believe,Today, Dalia is a fierce supporter of Israel’s justified war on terror. To many, her views are controversial. Welcome to a world that can no longer distinguish good from evil. It can be a truly frightening place, but it’s people like Dalia who restore faith in mankind & the kindness of man.In this conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Dalia Ziada discuss the vast & dangerous global infrastructure of Islamic terror and why Israel is actually in the center of it all. If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks Israel is a terrorist state, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about what Islamic terrorism actually is, its vast & very successful campaign to influence the West, and why everyone who cares about humanity should fiercely defend the Jewish State.GET DALIA'S BOOK, "THE CURIOUS CASE OF THE THREE-LEGGED WOLF": https://amzn.to/4mm643fWHERE TO FIND DALIA ZIADA:WEBSITE: https://www.daliaziada.orgX: https://www.twitter.com/daliaziadaINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/daliaziadaLINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/daliaziadaFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/daliaziadaYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DaliaZiada7/ Dalia Ziada is an award-winning Egyptian writer and political analyst known for her fearless voice on Middle East geopolitics and security.

There is no Palestinian State. World leaders can say anything they want, but the fact is: you cannot have a state without borders or a government. And the other fact is, the Palestinians have neither. And for good reason.The Arabs were actually offered a state by the UN in 1947 and 1948 but they rejected the partition plan outright because they refused to recognize a Jewish State. Later, this refusal would be codified in the Khartoum Declaration of 1967: No recognition of Israel. No peace with Israel. And no negotiations with Israel. AKA, The Jewish State.And so the stage was set.We can rewind centuries or even millennia to trace the roots of this belligerence and the violence that accompanied it, but instead, let’s fast forward to 1993, the first of the Oslo Accords when it finally seemed like peace may just become a possibility.Spoiler alert: it didn’t. In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Danny Seaman discuss the complexities of the Middle East Conflict from Oslo to today, and what recognition of a Palestinian State really means for the future of the region. If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks that Palestinian Statehood is merely a matter of self-determination, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about why the Arabs never got a Palestinian State and what the so-called "peace process" has really entailed.WHERE TO FIND DANIEL SEAMAN:YOUTUBE: https://tinyurl.com/34sruejkJNS: https://www.jns.org/writers/daniel-seaman/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/danielseaman2.0/📕 GET DANIEL'S BOOK, ISRAEL AND THE FOREIGN MEDIA: https://tinyurl.com/5fspv5da 📕 Danny Seaman is a Jerusalem-based political commentator, media analyst, and advisor to the Israel Defense and Security Forum (IDSF).

There is so much media attention on the war in Gaza and almost no context or reminders of how this war on Hamas started.It was October 7, 2023, when the terrorists and civilians of Gaza flooded Israel and committed the most unmentionable, unfathomable, and inhuman atrocities to occur in the Western World since the Holocaust.Out of that day came the most devastating of tragedies...but also the most powerful, incredible, selfless, and inspiring heroes.Today, IDF Sergeant Major @chaimalespin returns to the Yoga of War Podcast to share some of the stories of these extraordinary Israelis who stepped up and went far beyond the call of duty to save lives and protect a nation.

But have you heard of Pallywood?You should. Because I 100% guarantee you have seen it—often in the past 22 months in particular—and probably don’t even know it.Pallywood is a term coined by historian Richard Landes to describe the deliberate staging, fabrication, or manipulation of media—primarily visual, but also verbal—by Palestinian sources to falsely depict Israel as an aggressor and gain international sympathy.And, boy, it is effective. Most people unquestioningly believe what they see with their own two eyes. Seems pretty rational. But I promise you: today’s discussion and presentation are guaranteed to open your eyes to a whole new reality.In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica, Richard Landes, and Mr. Gazawood discuss the history and impact of Pallywood propaganda and how even you have likely been deceived by it.If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks the people of Gaza are the hapless and eternal victims of Israeli attacks and repression, you owe it to yourself to tune in to this conversation and presentation of how the Gazan images and ideas that have been so burned into your mind (spoiler alert: many of them aren't even from Gaza!) were produced specifically to brainwash you into believing terrorist lies.GET RICHARD'S BOOK, "CAN THE WHOLE WORLD BE WRONG?": https://amzn.to/41v4PXyGET RICHARD'S BOOK, "SALEM ON THE THAMES": https://amzn.to/3UPDI5PWHERE TO FIND RICHARD LANDES AND MR.

On July 15, rampaging Bedouins and Syrian forces invaded the Syrian Druze village of Suweida and massacred up to 2000 people, torturing, raping and kidnapping hundreds more in a viscous and barbaric terrorist raid disturbingly reminiscent of October 7th.With fewer than a million Druze in the entire world—most of them concentrated in Syria, Israel, Lebanon and Jordan—this was a devastating tragedy of unimaginable proportions.A unique characteristic of the Druze people is their fierce loyalty to and respect for whatever society they live in. In Israel, they are honored as perhaps the single most loyal minority, with 80% serving in the IDF and defend their nation.And..the Druze also have an unparalleled unity among themselves. The Druze in Israel don’t just consider those in Syria to be family. They consider them to be brothers and sisters.Over a thousand Israeli Druze stormed Syria that day to defend their brethren and the IDF was the only military on earth to step up and help. You see the Druze and the Jews do more than just rhyme. When it comes to the war on terror, they stand as one, unbreakable pillar.I am honored today to be joined, live in Haifa, with Israeli Druze leader, Ayoob Kara, to help us understand the tiny Druze nation and how we can all step up to defend them.In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Ayoob Kara discuss the Syrian Druze massacre and crisis, and what Israel is doing to help. If you are a yogi or yogini who believes that Israel is an aggressor for going into Syria, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about the Druze religion, the oppression they endure, and their unique relationship to the State of Israel.Ayoob Kara is a Druze-Israeli politician and former Likud Knesset member known for his strong Zionist stance and regional diplomacy. Born in 1955 in Daliyat al-Karmel, he served as a reserve Major in the IDF and holds degrees in law and public policy. Kara served four Knesset terms and held key roles including Minister of Communications and Deputy Minister for Development of the Negev and Galilee.A loyal supporter of Israel, Kara promoted ties with Arab neighbors and led humanitarian initiatives with Syria and Lebanon. He opposed disengagement from Gaza, supported settlement expansion, and advocated a strong stance on Iran. Since leaving politics, he heads the Economic Peace Center and serves on the advisory board of Doroni Aerospace, remaining active in diplomacy and public policy.WHERE TO FIND AYOOB KARA:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ayoobkaraX: https://twitter.com/ayoobkaraFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MKAyoobKara🎥 YOGA OF WAR PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEk7dn2pk4QXmLMnBCB80yQXIIcBDYsi0 🎥 🪂 🤸 ALSO BE SURE TO CHECK OUT THE "A PARATROOPER AND A YOGI WALK INTO A BAR..."

If you’re anything like me, there is a good chance you wake up every morning these days, wary of what the new day will bring and go to sleep each night wondering what the hell just happened.It’s been 22 months of Orwellian insanity and, to be honest, sometimes I just think I am losing my mind. October 7, 2023 was the day that common decency went out the window and basic morality decided to take a paid leave of absence.People think this phenomenon of thinly masked anti-Zionist-flavored antisemitism is something new. It’s nothing new. It’s just good old-fashioned Jew Hatred on a new set of steroids in a dystopian reality where terrorism is all the rage and facts…well, they’re a matter of opinion. The pseudo-intelligentsia have been consumed with useful idiocy, but somewhere in the abyss there does lie common sense and a voice of reason. Someone who can make sense of all the nonsense, and connect all the dots until the picture becomes clear.That someone is Thane Rosenbaum.In this conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Thane Rosenbaum discuss the legal and moral implications of the war in Gaza and how the world got swept away in the tide of jihadi terror.If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza, you owe it to yourself to listen to this conversation about how propaganda and the weaponization of words really works...and why it is so easy to fall into its trap.
