Summary

It wasn't true fifty years ago and it perhaps may not be true in 2075, but today, hating Israel means hating western civilization and adoring barbarism. It really is as simple as that. My guest, Josh Hammer has just published a terrific book ( https://a.co/d/ga4kaMv ) that explains why that is true as clearly and as eloquently as I'd have liked to do myself.
