Iran’s Islamic regime is trying to bury evidence of atrocities the same way it’s done before: by choking off the internet, tightening a blackout and daring the world to look away. "The Quad" panel pulls apart the media double standard (why some atrocities get treated as “claims” while other narratives get reported as fact), exposes the moral collapse of celebrity activism and campus protest culture and tackles the question hanging over everything: if the death toll is truly climbing into the thousands, what would U.S. involvement actually look like and what signals should you watch for next? You’ll come away with a sharper eye for propaganda patterns, a clearer map of the geopolitical chessboard (Iran–Syria–Jordan–U.S.) and a bracing sense of how quickly history can pivot when the cameras go dark.
The Iranian regime is wobbling and for the first time in decades, it feels different. As protests erupt across more than 100 cities, Iranians are no longer chanting vague slogans, they’re openly calling for the return of the Shah. This week, the panel breaks down why this uprising may be the real deal: cracks inside the IRGC, open defections and the sudden re-emergence of Reza Pahlavi as a unifying figure. Add Trump’s ominous warnings, regime brutality caught on camera and Iran’s global terror web, and you get a moment that could redraw the Middle East. Is this the beginning of the end for the Islamic Republic… or its most dangerous phase yet?
2025 was the year masks fell and some faces underneath were downright terrifying. In this year-end special of The Quad, the panel count down the “Top 10 Scumbags of the Year,” ripping into cowards, antisemites, grifters, Islamist apologists, woke celebrities, UN enablers and terror funders. From Greta’s arrest and her ties to Hamas-linked figures, to Miss Rachel’s anti-Israel turn, and all the way to Hamas’s luxury-loving leadership hiding in Qatari hotels, this isn’t just a takedown it’s a full-blown reckoning.
Massacres, terror plots and a globalized Intifada...is the world unraveling? From jihadi fundraising on U.S. campuses to Pride parades turned anti-Zionist rallies, to neo-Nazis platformed at conservative events, the West is facing a reckoning. Join "The Quad" as they expose the twisted alliances threatening Jews from the far-left and far-right alike, the infiltration of Western institutions and the shocking silence of Jewish leaders. Is the American conservative movement collapsing under the weight of its contradictions? And can Jewish resilience survive the storm?
A Hanukkah celebration in Sydney became a massacre and the panel on The Quad says this was no accident, no mystery and no coincidence. As at least 15 Jews are murdered at Bondi Beach, the slogan “Globalize the Intifada” is exposed for what it really is: a call to violence with real blood on its hands. The panel connects the dots between jihadist ideology, Western denial, media propaganda and the systematic failure of governments to protect Jewish communities. If you still think these chants are “just rhetoric,” this conversation will change your mind.
Phase Two or Fantasy? As President Trump ramps up pressure on Israel to advance his peace plan, Gaza spirals deeper into chaos. Hamas still refuses to disarm. The last hostage’s body remains in enemy hands. And yet Doha’s elites, Hollywood celebs, even supposed allies, are all screaming: Move forward. In this episode of The Quad, the panel rips into Qatar’s propaganda machine, Tucker Carlson’s doublespeak, Hollywood’s obsession with freeing terrorists and the West’s terrifying slide into moral collapse.
Israel is under fire, but not just from rockets. As global media races to condemn IDF soldiers over split-second decisions in war zones, this week’s episode of The Quad tears through the lies. From Hamas’s use of human shields finally caught on camera, to the tragic deaths of two children in Gaza, the team dives into the brutal truth of urban warfare—and the hypocrisy of the West. Plus: Netanyahu’s shocking pardon request, Trump’s move against the Muslim Brotherhood, and the influencer sellouts being flown to Qatar while Hamas digs deeper tunnels.
The gloves are off. As Hezbollah restocks, Hamas digs in and Gaza faces the question no one dares answer: who will actually disarm the terrorists? In this episode of The Quad, the team unloads on everything from Hamas tunnels and Iranian funding, to South Africa’s alliance with terror and the rise of anti-Israel radicals in the West. They expose fake Gaza “journalists” broadcasting from Europe, call out the hypocrisy of Western protests and dive into the dangerous normalization of antisemitism on U.S. campuses and streets. Plus, they crown this week’s heroes… and scumbags.
Yesterday, the unthinkable happened...the UN backed Trump’s bold 20-point Gaza plan, setting off a political earthquake. Hamas responded with fire and fury, anti-Israel protests erupted globally and Netanyahu added his own twist, inviting international help, but Israel’s right-wing roared back with a resounding "no" to a Palestinian state. We're covering it all on today's episode of the "Quad".
The remains of IDF hero Hadar Goldin are finally returned after 11 years, but the nation's grief deepens as a newly released hostage reveals harrowing details of sexual abuse in Hamas captivity. Meanwhile, Hamas refuses to disarm, Hezbollah builds up in Lebanon, and Iran continues fueling terror proxies from Gaza to Yemen. Back in the West, the panel exposes the foreign funding behind New York's anti-Israel Mayor Mamdani and the complicit silence of institutions like the BBC. Also: a fiery Scumbag of the Week segment, pro-Hamas protests in UK football and a tribute to heroes like Ben Shapiro, Noga Erez and IDF veterans who refuse to stay silent.
A candid roundtable on the “two wars”: the global narrative vs. on-the-ground realities in Gaza, and how it fuels rising antisemitism and polarized U.S. politics—from New York’s mayoral debate and campus unrest to media figures on the far left and right. The panel critiques policies tied to public safety and academic freedom, calls out conspiracy rhetoric, and spotlights human rights abuses in Iran. Heroes and “scumbags” of the week cap a plea for moral clarity and the return of Israeli hostages.
Ex-Muslim commentator Ridvan Aydemir (Apostate Prophet) returns to Jerusalem after converting to Christianity, debunking claims that Christians are mistreated in Israel and blasting Western media narratives. He argues the core doctrines of Islam—not just “radicals”—drive extremism, cites the Hamas charter, urges Muslims to leave Islam and warns Europe could face separatist Muslim autonomy movements. He calls Turkey's Erdogan a bluffer, says he feels safer in Israel than in London and urges “peace through strength.”
What happens when Tommy Robinson comes to Israel and finds the truth is nothing like what he was told?
Human rights activist and journalist Emily Schrader & Israeli innovation envoy Fleur Hassan-Nahoum sit down with British political firebrand Tommy Robinson for a raw, unfiltered conversation about media bias, Islamic extremism, antisemitism and the future of Western civilization.
Is Trump about to end the Gaza war? Or is his so-called “peace plan” just another media stunt?
Israeli innovation envoy Fleur Hassan-Nahoum is joined by human rights activist and journalist Emily Schrader, Chochmat Nashim founder Shoshana Keats-Jaskoll, and senior contributing editor at JNS and “Israel Undiplomatic” host Ruthie Blum to break down the biggest developments shaking Israel and the Middle East.
Watch this urgent conversation on the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the unthinkable wave of antisemitic conspiracy theories and morbid celebration that has followed. Hosted by Israel innovation envoy Fleur Hassan-Nahoum and featuring co-host Shoshana Keats-Jaskel, founder of Chochmat Nashim; Sandra Hagee Parker, head of the CUFI Action Center; and Iranian human rights activist Lili Mu, this episode confronts the dark realities of modern-day political hatred and media distortion.
Whether you admired his words or wrestled with them, his death marks more than the loss of a man, it marks a wound in the soul of a free society.
This episode explores what Charlie stood for: the conviction that free speech must be defended even when it burns our ears, that faith must be lived boldly, and that Israel must never stand alone in the face of hate. We recount the human cost of violence…an empty chair at the table, a stolen moment, a shattered life…and ask what kind of world we’re building when truth is met not with argument, but with violence.
But make no mistake: bullets kill people, they do not kill legacies. Charlie’s mission lives on in every student who dares to think differently, in every Christian who lives their beliefs out loud, and in every citizen who chooses truth over silence.
This is more than a eulogy. It's a call to carry the torch.
Israel innovation envoy Fleur Hassan-Nahoum is joined by journalist and human rights activist Emily Schrader, founder of Chochmat Nashim Shoshanna Keats-Jaskel, and Ruthie Blum, senior contributing editor at JNS and host of “Israel Undiplomatic.” Together, they unpack the deadly terrorist attack in Jerusalem that left at least five Israelis murdered and many more critically injured.
Colonel John Spencer is adamant that Israel’s victories over the past two years are unprecedented and that they are far from finished.
Israel innovation envoy Fleur Hassan-Nahoum sits down with Colonel John Spencer, Chair of Urban Warfare Studies at the Modern War Institute at West Point and one of the world’s leading experts on urban warfare. As media pundits, academics and critics question Israel’s Gaza strategy, Colonel Spencer brings the hard truths: Israel is winning and doing so at historic speed, despite facing military, political and psychological obstacles unlike any other democracy in modern warfare.
Israel delivers a major blow to Hamas with the elimination of Abu Obeida, Hamas's masked mouthpiece and chief propagandist. What does his death mean for the war, the region and the battle of narratives? Find out in this explosive new episode of “The Quad” hosted by Israel innovation envoy Fleur Hassan-Nahoum.
Joining the panel is Arab-Israeli activist Yoseph Haddad, who offers powerful insights into the shifting mindset among Arab communities in Israel and the growing calls from Gazans themselves to be liberated from Hamas rule. The conversation also tackles the corrosive role of Al Jazeera and Qatari-funded propaganda in shaping global opinion, as well as the urgent need for media accountability.
Israeli innovation envoy Fleur Hassan-Nahoum hosts former Member of Knesset, party leader and author Einat Wilf to challenge prevailing narratives and outline what genuine Middle East peace would require.
Wilf retraces a decade-long “awakening” from the 1990s peace camp to a data-driven conclusion: multiple offers for a sovereign Palestinian state (including 2000 and 2008) were rejected, followed by violence, with little internal criticism from Palestinian leadership. She unpacks the ideology she and Adi Schwartz call “Palestinianism”, a sustained fixation on preventing Jewish sovereignty in any part of the land and argues that lasting peace depends on defeating this ideology rather than recycling failed diplomatic formulas.
