Why is Israel Losing the Narrative War? – with Dr. Michael Oren
Description
We want to hear from you. Send questions and comments to podcast@boundlessisrael.org or message Aviva on X at @avivaklompas.
Israel may be holding its own on the battlefield, but it’s losing ground in the court of public opinion. False accusations, distorted statistics, and relentless condemnation in parliaments, human rights groups, the press, and international courts have created a storm that threatens Israel’s very legitimacy.
Why is this happening, and what does it mean for Israel’s future? Is the problem rooted in Israel’s own communication missteps—or in a deeper hostility and antisemitism in the West? And if the narrative war is being lost, what can still be done to change course?
Joining me is Dr. Michael Oren—historian, author, and former Israeli ambassador to Washington. Together we explore what’s at stake, who should be stepping up, and whether Israel can still turn the tide in a battle that matters as much as any fought on the ground.
