Targeting Judea and Samaria: The Netherlands’ New Product Ban
Israeli travelers are reportedly having their luggage searched for products from Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria, but thousands of Christians are responding in exactly the opposite way.
Josh Hasten breaks down the Netherlands’ new restrictions, the Dutch court ruling upholding them and Israel’s diplomatic retaliation as the dispute escalates far beyond a simple boycott. He also reveals how thousands of Christians from around the world are deliberately traveling into Judea and Samaria to support the very communities Europe is targeting. Plus, Josh examines disturbing statements appearing in Palestinian Authority and Fatah media, the powerful return to the site where Netanel Shukron was murdered, and the new Jewish communities being established across Judea and Samaria.

Growing Threats: Terror Attacks and an Underground Tunnel
Another terror attack has left the son of Israel’s ambassador to Washington fighting for his life, but an alarming discovery underground may point to an even bigger threat emerging in Judea and Samaria. In this episode of Judeacation, Josh Hasten covers the car-ramming attack that critically wounded Neria Leiter just days after father of six Netanel Shukron was murdered, as Israeli leaders debate how to restore deterrence amid a new wave of attacks. He also investigates the discovery of deep underground shafts alongside weapons in Qalqilya, and the dispute between Israeli police and the IDF over whether they constitute a tunnel network. Plus, Josh takes on Emmanuel Macron’s controversial claim about Hamas in Judea and Samaria, examines Europe’s expanding restrictions on Israeli goods and reveals the new communities and tourism projects transforming Israel’s biblical heartland.

Yom Kippur Eve Terror Attack: What Happened and the Wider Threat
An Israeli father of six was murdered in a terrorist shooting on the eve of Yom Kippur near Neve Tzuf in Judea and Samaria.
In this episode of Judaication, we break down what happened, how Israeli security forces tracked down and arrested the suspected attacker, and the broader security situation across the region.
We also look at recent rhetoric reported in official Palestinian media, calls for an intifada, activity by foreign activists in Judea and Samaria, and several terrorist attacks Israeli security forces say they successfully thwarted.
This episode examines both the attacks that make headlines — and the many threats that are stopped before they can be carried out.
