Summary

In this stirring discussion, we shed light on the often overlooked Middle East conflict that has drastically consumed our lives. From the shocking events of October 7th to the horrifying and dismissive reactions of many, our discussion is fueled by our profound investment and outrage over the situation. It's appalling to witness people tearing down posters of hostages and dismiss the horrific events as if they were justified. Listen in as we dissect how people can be so easily influenced and how this has led to a disturbing call for Jewish genocide. What we discuss: (00:01 - 00:25) Unexpected Events in the Middle East (03:25 - 05:21) Horrific Justification of Terrorism (07:33 - 08:21) Funding and Lack of Jewish Awareness (12:29 - 14:02) Exploring Anti-Semitism Within the Woke Community (18:36 - 20:22) Israel's Geopolitical Situation and Misinformation Find more from Jen: Website: https://www.jennifercohen.com/ Instagram: @therealjencohen Books: https://www.jennifercohen.com/books Speaking: https://www.jennifercohen.com/speaking-engagement
