OPINIONATED, EP5: J-STREET CEO & BORIS SHTONDA

In this episode of OPINIONATED, Benjamin Anthony challenges Jeremy Ben-Ami, president of J Street, on:

  • J Street U’s opposition to IDF actions in Gaza

  • Claims of a starvation policy in Gaza

  • The prospect of peace with the Palestinians-Arabs.

Next, Benjamin is joined by IDF veteran Boris Shtonda, whose leg was amputated as a result of injuries he sustained in Gaza and who continues to inspire by way of his resilience and remarkable achievements.

Finally, in ON ANOTHER NOTE, Benjamin examines the rise of anti-Israel sentiment within segments of the American right. He explores how this rhetoric blends religion, economics, politics, and nationality to target Israel and Jewish Americans, and why it poses a serious threat to U.S.-Israel relations if left unchecked.

In this episode, Benjamin is joined by U.S. Senator John Fetterman who weighs in on his steadfast support of Israel, whether another strike on Iran is coming and what the future of the Democratic party looks like. 

Professor Alan Dershowitz wasted no words excoriating several American universities for allowing anti-Semitism to spread unchecked on their campuses. 

He also explained the collapse of the two-state paradigm, and why Israeli strength remains the foundation for any future peace.

The show closes with “ON ANOTHER NOTE” — a spoken editorial by Benjamin Anthony. This week, he reflected on Israel’s wounded and fallen and our common responsibility to defend their good names.
