In this explosive episode of The Western Spirit, Ariel Whitman sits down with Israeli historian, author, and political commentator Gadi Taub for a wide-ranging conversation about Iran, the collapse of the old Middle East order, the rise of globalism, anti-Israel ideology in the West, and the growing political crisis inside Israel itself.Taub argues that the Obama administration fundamentally misunderstood Iran, viewing it as a rational actor that could be integrated into the international system through the Iran Deal (JCPOA), while ignoring the Islamic Republic’s revolutionary ambitions and alliance with China.Gadi Taub is one of Israel’s leading intellectuals and commentators. He is a historian, bestselling author, columnist, and co-host of Israel Update alongside Michael Doran. His work focuses on nationalism, globalism, democracy, Zionism, and the political transformation of the West.📌 Watch, share, subscribe and join the conversation to uncover what’s really at stake.📌 Support the channel by buying me coffee! ☕️ https://buymeacoffee.com/westernspirit📌 For business inquiries, including advertising opportunities on our show, please email us at: thewesternspiritpodcast@gmail.comChapters:00:00 – Gadi Taub on Iran, China & the collapse of the old Middle East order03:55 – Why the Iran Deal was never really about peace07:30 – Globalism vs nationalism in Israel and the West13:00 – Progressive elites, democracy & the rise of transnational politics17:20 – Why Western elites misunderstand radical Islam24:30 – Chuck Schumer, antisemitism & the Democratic Party’s shift on Israel31:00 – Israel’s ultra-Orthodox divide and the future of Israeli society34:20 – Why Gadi Taub changed his mind on the settlements43:00 – The Palestinian Authority, October 7 & the future of Judea and Samaria48:00 – Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens & anti-Israel voices on the American right#GadiTaub #Iran #Israel#IranDeal #MiddleEast #Trump#Antisemitism #Globalism #Zionism#TuckerCarlson #WesternSpirit
