Elders of Zionism - hosted by writer Judah Friedman, political strategist Guy Goldstein and Hollywood producer Golan Ramraz - is a podcast of three Jews taking back the name. At a time when Zionism has become a dirty word, we're asking why. Because the ideas under attack didn't start in Washington, Philadelphia or with the Magna Carta. They started at Sinai. Each week, we explore the connections between Zionism, Americanism and the broader Judeo-Christian tradition in an unapologetic conversation about civilization, sovereignty and the future of the West.

For The Tenth Time, No You Can't Fire A VP
We dissect Joe Rogan’s scripted plunge into anti-Israel conspiracy and condemn JD Vance for blaming Israel and critics instead of Iran (00:36). We expose Vance’s Iranian talking points and refusal to own his collapsing MOU (05:55). We contrast Qatar’s vast influence machine with the obsessive scrutiny of Israel and AIPAC (09:07). We warn that Vance’s ignorance of the Ten Commandments, American history and Judeo-Christian values reveals weakness at home and abroad (11:15). We defend Israel as America’s model ally during Operation Epic Fury (14:10). We ridicule Vance’s belief that critics must be paid and dismantle his claim that Israel wants endless war (18:23).

President Trump Needs A US-Built Fortress, Not A Qatari-Bought Palace
Judah Friedman and Guy Goldstein are back after a short break, and they open by taking apart the language people use to manufacture victimhood, from a congressman's claim of being "detained" in a West Bank military zone to the playbook behind staged sympathy (02:10), with Guy walking through what the term Pallywood actually describes and why coordination with the embassy, not activist groups, is the real story (03:15). From there the conversation moves to the 2028 field and a broader frustration with leaders who talk a good game but fold under pressure on foreign policy (07:22), set against Rubio's ICC sovereignty speech as a model of actual statesmanship (09:20). The heart of the episode is Iran, where Judah and Guy debate whether the moment is a holding pattern or true stalemate (13:04), why the Strait of Hormuz is being terrorized rather than controlled and what that means for the global economy (14:56), and the hard question of what minimum action disables the regime without an American occupation (17:00). They dig into the refueling planes stacked at Ben Gurion as a live illustration of who is actually an ally (18:30), the sensible call to keep the president off Qatar Force One during wartime because countermeasures cannot be retrofitted after the fact (21:29), and the case for redefining the US-Israel relationship away from aid and toward partnership (29:27), grounded in the real history from 1967 and 1973 forward (30:20) and the danger of the MOU dependency Biden was willing to leverage mid-war (32:01). The back half turns personal and civilizational, from the fear of disclosing your politics to the people treating you (37:22) to the antisemitism surfacing in Australian healthcare (38:18) and the sharp contrast of Israeli hospitals where nearly forty percent of staff are Arab and no one thinks twice (40:42). They close on the erosion of impartiality and safety in public life, using Amy Coney Barrett's remarks to ask what it means when judges fear for their families (41:50), why the founders tied judicial independence to freedom from material need (43:39), and finally a tribute to Lindsey Graham, the Kaddish said for him on Israeli primetime television, and the ugliness of those who could not let a man be mourned with dignity (55:44). No spin, no hedging, just two guys telling you what's really going on. Sent from my iPhone

VP JD's MOU with the IRGC is DOA because they FAFO.
In this hard-hitting episode, Judah Friedman and Guy Goldstein strip away the emotional talking points to look at the history, strategy, and long game behind today's headlines. The conversation kicks off with a look at the systemic differences between how the political Left and Right approach judicial appointments (01:10), leading into a deep dive into the definition of birthright citizenship and the foundational, creedal nature of what it means to be an American (04:30). This prompts a broader comparison to Israel's clear self-definition, the demographic challenges of the multi-generational Palestinian "Right of Return" (06:44), and a sobering warning about how a refusal to define a national identity has historically led to the collapse of major European cities (13:51). Moving back to the home front, the guys analyze the dangerous tactical shift toward militant socialism in cities like New York (28:38) and expose the billionaire infrastructure funding these coordinated anti-Western protests, focusing heavily on the CCP-aligned activities of American passport-holder Neville Roy Singham (18:03). Shifting gears to foreign policy, Judah voices his growing concerns over the current administration's Middle East envoy team—specifically J.D. Vance, Jared Kushner, and Steve Whitkoff—arguing that their pursuit of a Swiss/Qatari MOU is aggressively moving away from the paradigm of the Abraham Accords (31:26). They contrast these "JV business negotiations" with Senator Marco Rubio’s quiet, months-long diplomatic breakthrough that successfully brought Israel and Lebanon to the table, demonstrating what true regional expertise and trustworthiness can achieve (33:06). Finally, as the guys head into the July 4th week, they praise RFK Jr. for injecting rare moral clarity into the cultural discourse (44:05), call for an absolute end to the tribal relitigation of the 2020 election (46:48), and challenge listeners to put down the emotional social media feeds and pick up the Federalist Papers to remember exactly where we came from (56:29).
