Summary

What happens when the world’s watching—and judging—your every move? Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Danon, sits down with Dr. Phil to break down Israel’s war objectives, the moral tightrope of civilian protection, and the global firestorm of criticism. From accusations of genocide to the rise of antisemitism on college campuses, Danon doesn’t hold back. He shares what it takes to lead under pressure, why media narratives matter, and how international aid can fuel the very terror it’s meant to stop. If you care about truth, leadership, and what’s really at stake in the Middle East, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
