  • #186: Yishai Fleisher - The Facts Jews are Afraid to Admit

    Yishai Fleisher has been on my guest most wanted list for some time now. Yishai is the international spokesperson for the city of Hebron, the founder of non-profit organization Kumah which helps connect diaspora Jews to Israel, a graduate of Cardozo Law, a former paratrooper, and a resident of the West Bank. Yishai has been on major media publications such as CNN, Al Jazeera, Fox, Vice, BBC and more. He has recently made several appearances on Piers Morgan where his raw and direct statements have put him on the frontlines of the pro-Israel voices online. Yishai has a sizeable YouTube channel with over 100k subscribers which is quickly growing, and I am honored to have been able to sit down and shmooze with him for over 2 hours. If you've seen some of my content on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict you'd know of my directness on the subject, but this was the most RAW and REAL episode I've uploaded to date and easily one of my favorite episodes.
