Send us Fan Mail Israel is fighting two wars: one on the battlefield—and one in the headlines. In this explosive episode, Eylon Levy is joined by Israeli-American OSINT sleuth Eitan Fischberger, who breaks down how Hamas has manipulated the global media narrative through lies, disguises, and infiltration.
Fischberger, who rocketed from 2,000 to over 40,000 Twitter followers since October 7, reveals: • How open-source evidence shows Gaza “journalists” moonlighting as Hamas commanders • The Hamas-run media training programs feeding footage to Al Jazeera and CNN • The shocking case of a hospital director exposed as a Hamas colonel • Why the IDF’s failure to communicate evidence is costing Israel the information war • Why major news outlets refuse to admit they’ve been duped by terrorists
Watch how one man’s keyboard is doing the work of an army—and why the West's naïveté is Hamas’s greatest weapon.

Yashar’s Shaul Meridor joins Eylon Levy ahead of the Israeli election. He chooses to discuss the economy, rebuilding Israel’s north and national service for all; Eylon adds the welfare state. Meridor proposes shifting public spending from those who dodge the military draft to those who serve their nation, reducing draft exemptions to only 3% of each new cohort. He outlines Yashar’s extra ₪15 billion over five years for the north, and backs more import competition and lower farm tariffs alongside subsidies. He rejects the idea that Israel can be economically self-sufficient; Eylon challenges whether Yashar has a plan to future proof the Israeli economy against possible sanctions.
