Ep. 39 – Three falsehoods young adults believe about Israel

Three widely repeated claims about Israel aren't true. Victor looks at the idea that pro-Israel policy is primarily driven by the undue influence of Israeli lobbyists; that Israel has committed genocide in the Gaza Strip; and that Israel is an apartheid state.


Victor explains the factual and logical problems with each assertion.


Parental pause point questions:

1. What, if anything, do you think should change about America's support of Israel? (2:48)

2. Do you think AIPAC was the top political donor in 2024? (6:27)

3. How many civilians do you think died during the U.S. war in Iraq? (15:46)

4. Who is morally responsible for a civilian death when a group uses human shields? (18:58)

5. What would you say in response to that argument? (23:23)

6. Imagine Hamas had the military might of Israel. How many Jews would be left alive in Israel? (25:33)


The Great 8 questions:


1. What happens next?

2. Has this been tried before?

3. Is there a principle involved?

4. What are the trade-offs?

5. What do you mean by that?

6. Is this an appeal to emotion or logic?

7. Am I focused on the speaker or the argument?

8. What does the Bible say?
