The relationship between Zionism and Judaism has been a subject of intense debate for over a century, shaping political movements, religious beliefs, and global perceptions of Jewish identity. While Judaism is an ancient faith and cultural tradition, Zionism is a modern political ideology that emerged in the late 19th century, advocating for the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. The intersection of these two concepts has led to deep divisions within Jewish communities, as well as broader geopolitical conflicts. Judaism is one of the world’s oldest monotheistic religions, dating back thousands of years. It is centered around the belief in one God, the teachings of the Torah, and a rich tradition of laws, ethics, and customs. Jewish identity is complex, encompassing religious, ethnic, and cultural elements. Some Jews identify primarily through religious observance, while others see their Jewishness as a cultural or ancestral connection. Historically, Jewish communities have lived across the world, adapting to different societies while maintaining their distinct traditions. Despite periods of persecution, Jewish identity has remained resilient, evolving through centuries of exile, migration, and cultural exchange. Zionism emerged in the late 19th century, largely in response to European antisemitism and the desire for Jewish self-determination. The movement was spearheaded by figures like Theodor Herzl, who argued that Jews needed a sovereign state to escape persecution. The idea gained momentum, leading to the eventual establishment of Israel in 1948. However, Zionism is not a singular ideology—it has taken different forms: • Political Zionism focused on securing a Jewish state through diplomacy and international agreements. • Religious Zionism merged Jewish faith with nationalist aspirations, viewing Israel as a fulfillment of biblical prophecy. • Revisionist Zionism advocated for a more aggressive expansionist approach, influencing modern Israeli policies. While many Jews embraced Zionism, others opposed it, arguing that Judaism is a spiritual and ethical tradition, not a political movement. Some religious groups believe that a Jewish state should only be established by divine intervention, not human action. The Battle Over Jewish Identity: The tension between Zionism and Judaism has led to a battle over what it means to be Jewish. Some argue that Zionism has redefined Jewish identity, making support for Israel a central component of Jewish life. Others believe that Judaism should not be tied to nationalism, emphasizing spiritual and ethical teachings over political allegiance. Critics of Zionism, including some Jewish groups, argue that the movement has led to militarization, occupation, and human rights violations, particularly against Palestinians. They believe that Jewish identity should be rooted in justice, morality, and coexistence, rather than territorial expansion. On the other hand, Zionist supporters claim that Israel is essential for Jewish survival, providing a safe haven against antisemitism. They argue that opposition to Zionism often overlaps with antisemitic rhetoric, making it difficult to separate criticism of Israeli policies from attacks on Jewish people. Modern Implications: Today, the debate over Zionism and Jewish identity continues to shape global politics. In Israel, tensions exist between secular and religious Jews, as well as between Jewish and Palestinian communities. In the diaspora, Jewish communities are divided over Israel’s policies, with some advocating for Palestinian rights and others defending Israeli sovereignty. The question remains: Is Jewish identity inherently tied to Zionism, or can Judaism exist independently of a nation-state? As discussions evolve, Jewish communities worldwide continue to grapple with the balance between faith, culture, and political ideology.

This is the second of two archived visits with Benjamin Franklin, as portrayed by Ralph Archbold. Benjamin Franklin arrived in Philadelphia as a young man and became an inventor, printer, scientist, author, governor, activist in the war for independence from England, an ambassador to France, and the first post master general in the United states, among a multitude of many other accomplishments. Ralph Archbold has portrayed Benjamin Franklin in theater, for conventions, and in the media for over 30 years. Benjamin Franklin, through the person of Ralph Archbold, met with me in Franklin Court where his home and printshop were located, in Philadelphia. We met on July 18, 1994. We discussed his early life, his inventions and his role in the cessation from England and the formation of the United States. We began our conversation when I first asked him when he first came to Philadelphia. The book Benjamin Franklin and Ralph Archbold recommend is “The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin.”

Commentary # 1 Christopher Black (1959-2025): Successfully defended his client at the UN Tribunal for Rwanda, and accused the Court of serving Western powers. A memorable and exemplary fighter for justice. Commentary # 2: Trump increases tariffs on Canada, Carney & co. increases hostility to China & asks to be part of the Golden Dome. Playing with fire to please oligarchs.

A weekly 30 minute review of international news and opinion, recorded from a shortwave radio and the internet. With times, frequencies, and websites for listening at home. 3 files- Highest quality broadcast, regular broadcast, and slow-modem streaming. Japan, France 24, and Cuba.

Today on the Global Research News Hour, we are looking at plans by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney to boost military spending to 2 percent of the GDP of his country in just a few months, his apparent embrace of the unproven Golden Dome missile defense shield and what stakes await Canadians who want to stop war, not start new ones (especially those of a nuclear nature.) In our first half hour, the scientist Theodore Postol of MIT joins us to explain why the Missile Defense shield today,, like missile defense in the 1980s is more science fiction than science fact and why alternatives would be far more preferable to this insanely expensive strategy. Then in our second half hour, we sit down with Tamara Lorincz of the Canadian Voice Women for Peace to discuss the false vision of a more peaceful world through increasing and expensive military strength and how to refute these claims in Canada. Finally, Alberta organizer Morrigan Johnson representing the Canada-Wide peace and justice network explains what is wrong with the G7 leaders meeting in his province this weekend and about the activities pushing back against an agenda not in the interest of the Canadian or the world’s people.
