Jonathan Conricus | Israel & The War of Words | Israel-Hamas War | Conversation with Shana Meyerson

Hours after the diabolical Hamas attacks on Israel, the morning of October 7, 2023, Retired Lieutenant Colonel, Jonathan Conricus reported as a civilian volunteer for reserve duty and was appointed as an IDF Reserve International Spokesperson.After serving 24 years in the Israel Defense Forces, including four years as International Spokesperson from 2017-2021, he was just the right person for the job.He remained in that distinguished position until the end of 2023 and in those grueling three months, he conducted a nonstop flurry of interviews, briefings, and events. Covering all time zones and media outlets, Jonathan conducted 30-40 interviews with top-tier news services every night, and filled his days with Zoom calls, meetings, and diplomacy. His service to his nation was tireless, unwavering, and inspiring, as he educated us all on the truth about Israel and their defensive and existential war in Gaza.Despite the media's relentless anti-Israel bias and aggression, Jonathan never lost his cool. Never lost his composure.As the voice of sanity and rationality in a hostile and sometimes antisemitic world, he reminded us daily--many times a day--how and why Israel is fighting this war. And why, no matter what, Israel must win.In this LIVE conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Jonathan Conricus discuss Israel's expansive war against Iran and all its proxies, and what we can expect in the years to come.If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks that Israel is the aggressor and oppressor of the Middle East, you owe it to yourself to listen to this discussion about the evil terrorist forces that Israel has always been up against, and the international communications machine that is hell-bent on delegitimizing the Jewish State.WHERE TO FIND JONATHAN CONRICUS:X: https://twitter.com/jconricusINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/jconricus/YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmEsAFBNkqsNZdGl9ayuXluH8gxZ4sVU3FOUNDATION FOR DEFENSE OF DEMOCRACIES: https://www.fdd.org/team/lt-col-ret-jonathan-conricus/WIKIPEDIA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_ConricusJonathan Conricus is a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) focused on the Middle East.
