CUFI Weekly

As antisemitic violence rises in Jewish Communities, this New York City gym is taking active steps to help people combat attacks through self-defense techniques and training so that they may live in peace.

On this week’s episode, Kasim is joined by Krav Maga specialist, Raz Chen, who discusses the history of Krav Maga and how this martial art equips the Jewish Community today.

Learn how you, as a CUFI member, are playing an indispensable role in advancing peace by standing for truth and standing with Israel.

As Russia continues its invasion of Ukraine, anti-Israel detractors all over the world are co-opting the suffering of the Ukrainian people to feed into their anti-Israel narrative. But the suffering of the people of Ukraine and that of the Palestinians are not the same. In this episode, Kasim tells you why. Listen now. 

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has changed the world. In this episode, Kasim sits down with Boris Zilberman, Director of Policy and Strategy at the CUFI Action Fund, to talk about the situation in Ukraine.

Learn what’s behind Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and how it relates to America, Israel, and you.

A few weeks ago, Amnesty International labeled Israel as an “apartheid state.” Accusing Israel of apartheid, the racist system which governed South Africa from 1948 until the early 1990s, is a decades-old libel that has no basis in reality. In Israel, Arabs and Jews (indeed, all minorities) have full and equal rights.

Listen to the newest episode of The CUFI Minute with Kasim Hafeez to learn how to defend Israel against this false accusation.

In this episode, Kasim compares Theodor Herzl’s pamphlet, The Jewish State, with a religious edict issued by the Supreme Leader of Iran on the same day, many years later. The two documents demonstrate that both the Jewish and Iranian people have suffered from oppression, but while Israel was founded as a pluralistic, democratic society to protect all its citizens, Iran has become a tyrannical and oppressive regime, which abuses its own people, as well as poses a threat to America, Israel, and all the free world.

Anti-Israel detractors often disguise their hatred of the Jewish state with the pro-Palestinian slogan, “Free Palestine.” But innocent Palestinians do need to be freed—from Hamas, the terrorist group which has been the de-facto ruler of the Gaza strip since 2007, and the Palestinian Authority.

Listen to this week’s special episode of the CUFI Minute to learn more about this slogan, what’s really behind it, and why supporting Palestinians means standing up to those who truly oppress them—their own leaders, not Israel.

What was it like to be Jewish during the Holocaust?

In honor of International Holocaust Remembrance Day, this special episode of the CUFI Minute highlights the life and message of the late Irving Roth, an Auschwitz survivor and great friend of CUFI.

On this important day, please take the opportunity to remember, as Irving taught us, that the persecution of Jews always begins with words. Words become slogans, slogans transform society, and soon enough, murder is legitimized.

In the face of evil, we must not be silent. We must speak out for Israel and the Jewish people whenever and wherever antisemitism rears its ugly head.

In the land of the free, Jews are not free to visit their places of worship without fear. Every freedom-loving American should be appalled that the Jewish community in our country feels less secure in the United States than they did in previous years.

In this week’s special episode of the CUFI Minute, Kasim discusses the recent hostage situation at a Texas synagogue and why Christians must stand up and speak out today.

As world powers meet in Vienna to negotiate a deal with Iran, the Iranian regime continues to plot Israel’s destruction—but Israel is not Tehran’s only target. The country designated as the world’s number one state sponsor of terrorism aims to destroy not only Israel but also the United States.

In this week’s episode of the CUFI Minute, find out why standing with Israel is defending America.
