IDF Soldier Stav Cohen: Fighting in Gaza & Confronting Antisemitism in the West
Description
Stav Cohen, a soldier in an elite reserve unit of the IDF, shares his powerful and personal story in this interview. After initially serving in the 2014 Gaza War, Stav returned to Gaza a decade later following the October 7 attack to defend his country after what's been described as the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.
In this candid conversation, Stav opens up about the devastating loss of four of his closest friends at the Nova festival and fellow soldiers on the battlefield. He also discusses his perspectives on rising antisemitism in the West and his experiences advocating for Israel on American college campuses, including at Columbia University, which has become a focal point of pro-Hamas protests.
This interview offers a firsthand account from someone who has experienced both the personal tragedy of the conflict and the challenges of communicating Israel's position in increasingly hostile academic environments.
