Ask Me Anything with Dan Senor, Yael Bar tur, and ChayaLeah Sufrin

Today we are joined by some guy named Dan Senor for a wide-ranging Ask Me Anything. We tackle questions about the state of Jewish education, why we should stop calling everyone an antisemite, how Fauda is shaping perceptions of Israel globally, and what the rise of the European right means for Israel and Jews abroad, beyond Eurovision votes.

In this episode:

• What American Hebrew school gets wrong

• Why anti-Zionism is resonating with young Americans

• Will the language around “genocide” and anti-Zionism eventually change?

• Why Fauda succeeds in telling Israeli stories better than non-fiction means

• What the rise of the European right-wing means for Israel and European Jews 

• Dan lets Yael talk about Eurovision for longer than necessary

• The unlikely allies Israel may need to turn to

• Which American presidential candidates could effectively navigate Israeli issues

• What the 2026 midterms might reveal about the Democratic Party’s direction
