CUFI Weekly

Since the October 7th massacre, we’ve increasingly seen the vilification of Israel and the Jewish people on the political fringes, but more and more we are seeing certain media personalities looking to mainstream Jew hatred. Just as vocally as we call it out on the antisemitism widespread now on the political left, we must also call it out on the right.

This week, we are joined by Senior Director of Public Policy and Strategy for the CUFI Action Fund, Boris Zilberman. We discuss all the recent developments in the Middle East, the future of the ceasefire, Vice President Vance’s visit to Israel, and what we can expect on Capitol Hill in the coming weeks.

The CUFI Minute is another way to enjoy CUFI’s online news and analysis segment, the CUFI Weekly. Featuring host Kasim Hafeez, this microcast is a quick yet in-depth topical segment you can listen to while commuting to work or making your afternoon cup of coffee. We should stand in solidarity against terrorism including when it happens in Israel.

In under 10 minutes a week, learn about the history behind many threats facing Israel, the significance of important holidays and anniversaries throughout the year, and what’s happening in Israel and the broader Middle East.

As Israelis rejoiced at the return of the 20 living hostages from Gaza after two years in captivity, families still await the remains of their loved ones who were murdered and their bodies held in Gaza. Tragedy and triumph intermingle constantly in Jewish history, and while we may be looking at the beginning of the end of the war against Hamas, the fires of Jew hatred sparked since October 7th, 2023, will take longer to douse.

In this episode, Kasim discusses how we all must continue to speak up and stand up not just for Israel and the Jewish people, but for the future of America itself.

The world waits for Hamas to decide whether it will accept President Trump’s proposed peace agreement this week, which could mean an end to the war and the return of all hostages.

The second annual People’s Conference on Palestine, an anti-Israel, anti-America hate fest, took place in Detroit this week.
