Two Years in Hell: A Freed Hostage Returns, But at What Cost?
JNS correspondent Josh Hasten reveals how the discovery of Mein Kampf in a Hamas-linked charity in Hebron underscores the deep-rooted hatred fueling Palestinian terror. He connects this indoctrination to the October 7 massacre and warns that peace is impossible while such ideology persists. The episode also covers the emotional return of freed hostage Avinatan Or, the alarming presence of armed PA gunmen near Jewish communities, and growing Arab infiltrations into Israeli cities. Hasten critiques U.S. lawmakers pushing a two-state plan and exposes how the UN distorts casualty figures to malign Israel. His message is clear: the war is not just physical—it’s a fight against global lies.
