One of Netanyahu's closest advisors speaks frankly about Israel – past, present and future – and what it means to be a Jew in the 21st Century.

Why is Israel increasingly condemned abroad even as it transforms the Middle East and demonstrates its military and technological strength? Caroline Glick calls it a “diplomatic October 7” — and argues that Israel cannot make its survival dependent on international approval.

Glick, Benjamin Netanyahu’s international affairs adviser and a longtime journalist and author, joins Jonathan Sacerdoti to discuss Israel’s war, its growing diplomatic isolation and the resurgence of antisemitism across the political spectrum. She explains why she believes October 7 exposed both the dangers of Jewish vulnerability and the failure of assumptions that had shaped Israeli policy for decades.
