00:00:08.039 --> 00:00:10.320
<v Speaker 1>The time is now ten one am in New York.

2
00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:13.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm Noah Levi and this is the latest Israel Today,

3
00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:18.440
<v Speaker 1>ongoing war report. In Israeli domestic politics, Caroline Glick is

4
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:21.519
<v Speaker 1>the right choice for Israel's New York Consul general at

5
00:00:21.519 --> 00:00:24.960
<v Speaker 1>this pivotal moment in Jewish history. Israel does not need

6
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:28.640
<v Speaker 1>a cautious bureaucrat or a diplomatic placeholder as its next

7
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:31.719
<v Speaker 1>consul general in New York. It needs a fighter, a

8
00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:35.679
<v Speaker 1>truth teller, and a leader capable of confronting uncomfortable realities

9
00:00:35.719 --> 00:00:39.759
<v Speaker 1>with clarity and courage. Caroline Glick is uniquely qualified for

10
00:00:39.799 --> 00:00:43.560
<v Speaker 1>that role. The article notes that for decades, the relationship

11
00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:46.759
<v Speaker 1>between Israel and American jury rested on the assumption that

12
00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:51.960
<v Speaker 1>American Jews would strengthen Israel politically, financially, and culturally. It

13
00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:55.840
<v Speaker 1>points to a historical contrast. At Israel's founding in nineteen

14
00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:58.840
<v Speaker 1>forty eight, there were about six hundred and fifty thousand

15
00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Jews in Israel and six million in America. To day,

16
00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Israel's population exceeds ten million, with more than seven million Jews,

17
00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:10.480
<v Speaker 1>making it the largest Jewish community in the world. Israel's

18
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:14.079
<v Speaker 1>economy is thriving and its currency stronger than in decades.

19
00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:17.799
<v Speaker 1>Israeli society is described as among the happiest in the

20
00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:22.040
<v Speaker 1>world according to International Measures. Underscoring the evolving dynamic with

21
00:01:22.079 --> 00:01:25.079
<v Speaker 1>American jury and the need for leadership in New York

22
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:28.760
<v Speaker 1>to reflect that shift in antisemitism and anti Jewish hate,

23
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:32.280
<v Speaker 1>Campus Israel launched as an alternative for Jewish students facing

24
00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:37.159
<v Speaker 1>antisemitism flir Hassenah, whom argues for a practical, immediate response

25
00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:42.040
<v Speaker 1>to crises including hostile campuses, regional realignment, war with Iran,

26
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:46.560
<v Speaker 1>the future of Gaza, and persistent antisemitism with stronger women's

27
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:50.400
<v Speaker 1>leadership at the forefront. Hassenah, whom an Israeli politician and

28
00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:53.840
<v Speaker 1>former Deputy Mayor of Jerusalem, is now Special Envoy for

29
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Trade Innovation for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, asked why

30
00:01:57.719 --> 00:02:00.920
<v Speaker 1>she is dedicating energy to Campus Israel. She asks why

31
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:04.280
<v Speaker 1>more Jewish students abroad aunt studying in Israel's English language

32
00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:08.280
<v Speaker 1>degree programs, noting Israel's many degrees offered in full English.

33
00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:11.719
<v Speaker 1>Her experience with the Abraham Accords is cited as sharpening

34
00:02:11.759 --> 00:02:15.800
<v Speaker 1>this question. Traveling to the UAE, she observed how natural

35
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:18.520
<v Speaker 1>it was for young Emortis to look outward for education,

36
00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:22.280
<v Speaker 1>and some of her UAE friends chose Israel. She points

37
00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:25.240
<v Speaker 1>to Israel's English language degree offerings as a pathway to

38
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:28.919
<v Speaker 1>connect students with education in Israel and to bolster community

39
00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:31.919
<v Speaker 1>life there. Thank you for tuning in to this Israel
