Welcome to the program today.

Monty Gonzalez here in studio, and we have Jonathan Kahn, and we're going to be talking about some amazing things as it relates to Israel. And it's kind of appropriate that we talk to him. And before we do, I want to remind everybody about an upcoming trip to Israel. We are going to Israel, May of 2026. And if that interests you, I think it'll be my 10th time I've been there. It's going to be an awesome time.

We go to so many sites that are based on, again, archaeology, which is my background, as you know,

loving going to those places and seeing some new things that have opened up. The Pilgrimage Road is going to be there.

It's opened up all the way from the city of David up onto the Temple Mount area.

Phenomenal, the exact places where Jesus walked. Again, it's amazing what's happening in the

archaeological world there that is showing so much. I appreciate what God is doing because he's

showing the connection of what's happening in Israel to the ancient people of Israel and his land

and his purpose and all the

purposes that he has, especially in Jerusalem as we know. So check it out. Visit Israeltoday.com

and you can join us May of 2026. Well, Jonathan, welcome. Great to be back. And we are here to

talk about various things. There's so many things that are going on. There's a

brand new film that's coming out, which helps document some of the history not only of October 7th,

which is we're coming up on the anniversary right now as well, but also just the connection.

There's archaeology in this film, which again, I appreciate so much there of the connection

between ancient Israel,

modern Israel. But before we do that, you know, there's so many things happening right now.

There's the stuff going on with Trump. We see, you know, people even like Tucker and Candice Owens

and their kind of discussions about Israel and being anti-Israel and questioning

whether modern Israel is even ancient Israel. Just, you know, it's not often I get a chance to

ask you about that, but what's your thoughts, just the sense of what's happening right now?

Well, there's a gigantic wave of anti-Israel hatred in the world. I mean, the world has never been friendly
