An Expert Guide to Israel's 2026 Election - David Weinberg - Ep. 75 - Public Research with Daniel Schwartz
An Expert Guide to Israel's 2026 Election - David Weinberg - Ep. 75 - Public Research with Daniel SchwartzDavid Weinberg, one of Israel's longest-tenured columnists at The Jerusalem Post and a senior fellow at the Misgav Institute, joins Public Research for a granular tour of the ten-plus-party free-for-all that is Israel's upcoming election. From Haredi draft dodgers to Itamar Ben-Gvir's Jewish Power Party, Yair Golan's Democrats, Bezalel Smotrich, the Reservists Party, and beyond, we look at the candidates and parties competing for power.From there, we confront some of the core questions hanging over Israel today: Did it win the Gaza war? Is it stronger than it was on October 6? Or did it fall into Sinwar's trap, with Netanyahu's slow and bloody three-year war in Gaza giving the global anti-Israel movement new life and prospects for success?All that and more on today's episode of Public Research.#Israel #IsraeliElection #Netanyahu #Bibi #Gaza #Hamas #Gaza

Can Israel's Election Save The U.S. Alliance? - Yaakov Katz - Ep. 74 - Public Research
Can Israel's Election Save The U.S. Alliance - Yaakov Katz - Ep. 74 - Public Research with Daniel SchwartzDays before Israelis vote in the first election since October 7, Yaakov Katz joins Public Research to discuss what the Gaza war achieved — and whether another Netanyahu victory could cost Israel its alliance with the United States.Yaakov Katz is the former editor-in-chief of The Jerusalem Post (2016–2023) and a senior fellow at the Jewish People Policy Institute. Before that he was the Post's military correspondent and a senior policy adviser to Naftali Bennett. His latest book, with Amir Bohbot, is "While Israel Slept: How Hamas Surprised the Most Powerful Military in the Middle East."We discuss who really won the war; Hamas rearming and reestablishing itself in Gaza; the accusations of genocide; whether a two-state arrangement is still viable; the Israeli election; Smotrich, Ben-Gvir, and Feiglin; the threat of sanctions from the EU and America; and the future of the US-Israel alliance.#Israel #Gaza #Hamas #Iran #Netanyahu

Are Jews Welcome in Abdul El Sayed's Democratic Party? - Rabbi Asher Lopatin - Ep. 73
Are Jews Welcome in Abdul El Sayed's Democratic Party? - Rabbi Asher Lopatin - Ep. 73 - Public Research with Daniel SchwartzOn October 3rd, 2026, the British Green Party voted to declare Zionism racism and passed a motion that effectively banned most British Jews from membership in the party. Here in America, forces that would like to do the same thing to the Democratic Party are ascendant as well. In Michigan the Democrat's Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed campaigns with Hasan Piker who urges his fans to treat most jews like "rabid neo nazis" and to purge them from public life. Few races in 2026 have been watched more closely than the Michigan Senate race, where many Democrats are finding it difficult to get behind their party’s nominee, Abdul El-Sayed. El-Sayed calls the Gaza war an ongoing “genocide” and claims Israel “hands America its foreign policy.”As a result of this some Democrats are finding hard to get behind El-Sayed such as Rabbi Asher Lopatin, a Modern Orthodox rabbi and Jewish communal leader in Michigan. We discuss El-Sayed, antisemitism, and the obsessive hatred a rising cohort of the American left has for Israel and American Jewish zionists.#Israel #Zionism #Antisemitism #Michigan #Gaza #AIPAC #AbdulElSayed #HasanPiker #Senate #democrats

Is Trump Going Soft on Iran? - Jason Brodsky - Ep. 72 - Public Research with Daniel SchwartzSix months into the war with Iran, where do things stand—and how should we assess the conduct and strategy of the war so far?Jason Brodsky is an Iran specialist who has worked as an advisor for the late Senator Joe Lieberman and also in the White House. He serves as the Policy Director of United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) and has spent years studying the Iranian regime and its leadership.Brodsky joins the show to discuss what the United States and Israel have achieved against the Islamic Republic, what they have failed to accomplish, and what comes next.We discuss the damage done to Iran’s nuclear program, military, missile and drone capabilities; the Strait of Hormuz; America’s depleted interceptor and munitions stockpiles; and whether the war should have been fought more aggressively against Iranian ports, rail links, energy infrastructure and other strategic targets.We also get into the prospects for regime change and an Iranian uprising, the remaining nuclear threat at Pickax Mountain, Iran’s relationship with China, whether Washington has weakened its deterrence by repeatedly threatening actions it does not take, and what President Trump should do next.Later, the conversation turns to the ideology and objectives of the Iranian regime, threats against the United States and its allies, whether Israel is in a better strategic position than it was before October 7, antisemitism in anti-Israel rhetoric, the global anti Israel cult and the viability of a 2 state solution.A wide-ranging discussion about Iran, Israel, American power, deterrence, military strategy, and what comes next in the war.Conversation recorded on Aug. 16, 23.#Iran #Israel #Trump #Netanyahu #IDF #Hormuz

How Billionaires Are Stealing American Mountains - Ep. 70 - Joseph Bullington - Public Research
Joseph Bullington, rural America editor at In These Times, joins Public Research to discuss his article “How To Privatize a Mountain,” about the fight over public access in Montana’s Crazy Mountains.“There’s sort of a new land rush going on in the West,” Bullington says. But this time, it is less about mining, cattle, or oil drilling. “It’s all about real estate and luxury housing resorts.”The conversation covers the Crazy Mountain land exchange, the loss of key public access points like Sweet Grass, how private landowners can block Forest Service roads and trails, and why these disputes matter for hunters, hikers, rural communities, and anyone who believes public lands should remain public.Bullington also explains how similar fights are playing out across the Mountain West, where wealthy landowners and billionaires can use access closures as leverage to reshape public land for private benefit.The stakes go far beyond one mountain range: Bullington warns that if imperfect roads and trails disappear, the Forest Service could lose access to more than half of its roads, threatening a majority of the routes the public uses to reach public land.Episode 70 of Public Research with Daniel Schwartz.
