Journalist Sam Sokol, a New Yorker, who lives in Israel with his family gives us a Jewish perspective of life at this unusual time

New Yorker, Sam Sokol, a journalist with the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, is living with his family in Beit Shemesh, which is in between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem in Israel. We chat about growing up in New York, mandatory service with the Israeli army and his work as a journalist for the JTA, Jerusalem Post, Times of Israel and the Israel Broadcasting Authority. We chat about his book "Putin's Hybrid War and the Jews", the fake news playbook, Donald Trump's popularity in Israel, the complexities of Jewishness and particular difficulties with Covid with some parts of the Jewish community.    Enjoy the show!   This show has been brought to you by Fuzion Communications, a Marketing, PR, Graphic Design and Digital Marketing Agency in Ireland with offices in Dublin and Cork.
