Is the West losing faith in itself, and what does that mean for Israel? Ariel Whitman, host of the Western Spirit podcast, joins ILTV to explore a growing crisis of confidence among young people in the United States and beyond. From declining pride in Western values to rising hostility toward Israel, Whitman explains how a lack of meaning is reshaping politics, media, and public discourse. He also discusses the power and pitfalls of podcasts, generational divides in American politics, and why Israel’s next elections could be a defining moment.
