The Edwin Black Show is on hiatus for Thanksgiving. Edwin, Carol, and Team Black wish everyone blessings and abundance on this day set aside for giving thanks.

Please rejoin us on December 2nd for another informative, incisive, and illuminating exploration of our fragmented world, our turbulent history, our very very tense present, and our evolving and uncertain future.

The Edwin Black Show comes to you from Washington, DC via Zoom Thursdays at 3:00 pm ET. Visit TheEdwinBlackShow.com for show information and to sign up for alerts; visit the show’s YouTube channel for enhanced recordings of past shows, trailers, and bonus content.

If conflict breaks out between Iran and Israel, Tehran will order Hezbollah to attack, dragging Lebanon into a ferocious—and tragic—war with the Jewish State. Israel has been preparing its next Lebanon battle for years. A combination of rapid new and massively more destructive weapons coordinated by artificial intelligence will make this war 10 times as intense as the last encounter. With Hezbollah embedding thousands of missiles in civilian locations, the fight will probably exceed the “laws of war” and devastate populated areas—which Iran desires. The Lebanese people will suffer most.

Eran Lerman, VP, the Jerusalem Institute for Strategy and Security, John Hajjar, US director, World Council for the Cedars Revolution, Steven Emerson, founder of the Investigative Project on Terrorism, and JNS Jerusalem Bureau Chief Alex Traiman join Edwin to drill into the details.   

A million in camps, transported in trains. Slave labor. Forced sterilization and institutional rape. A concerted program to wipe out an entire ethnic group. The whole world … isn’t watching. Nury Turkel of the Uyghur Human Rights Project, Rahima Mahmut of the World Uyghur Congress, camp survivor Mihrigul Tursen, and Rabbi Abraham Cooper of the Simon Wiesenthal Center join Edwin to unveil the horrifying facts.

Panzer tanks, Blitz trucks, Ju-88 bombers, torpedoes, land mines, automation, financial help—how America’s most criminal corporation partnered with the Nazis to enable the Reich’s conquest of Europe … and the Holocaust. Automotive historian Marc Rauch joins Edwin.

Third-grade students, including Jewish kids, at Watkins Elementary School in Washington DC were allegedly instructed by a staff member to reenact scenes from the Holocaust, including gassing, digging ditches for bodies, and shootings. Antisemitic remarks were also reported. What the hell has happened? What the hell is happening? Is this a mere school mishap to be regretted … or criminal child abuse to be prosecuted? A stand will must now be taken. Famed civil rights attorney Nathan Lewin, Washington DC JCRC associate director Guila Siegel, and StandWithUs legal director Yael Lerman join Edwin.

 

When America’s most active Jew hater and the world’s most dangerous Jew hater made common cause … the result was measured in the millions. Holocaust historian Max Wallace and automotive historian Marc Rauch join Edwin.

For generations, the Arabs of Jewish Palestine denied any national identity. In 1948, the Arabs invaded. Jewish land was stolen—and Arabs voted to be citizens of Jordan. In 1964, the Arabs expropriated the Jewish Palestinian identity. In the 1990s, the Oslo Accords mapped out a two-state solution. Since then, every peace breakthrough has been rejected by the Arab Palestinians. Is a two-state solution still viable? Middle East historian Mordechai Kedar and Hudson Institute Foreign Policy Fellow Josh Block join Edwin.
