רוח מערבית - The Western Spirit

🎙️In this episode, I speak with John Spencer, Chair of Urban Warfare Studies at the Modern War Institute, Co-Director of the Urban Warfare Project, and host of the Urban Warfare Project Podcast at West Point. Spencer discusses the double standards applied to Israel and why these judgments are, at best, misleading. He also exposes the misrepresented narratives and misinformation spread by mainstream media about the Gaza conflict. With firsthand insights, Spencer explains the unique demands of urban warfare, expectations in these combat situations, and compares Israel's military tactics to historical standards in urban warfare. He further delves into the challenges of Hamas’ tunnel warfare, the IDF’s efforts to limit collateral damage, and the real figures for combatant and civilian casualties in this conflict. For anyone seeking a deeper, more accurate understanding of Israel's war against Hamas - or for those who think they’ve heard it all - this conversation offers critical insights. ►John Spencer on X - https://x.com/spencerguard ►John Spencer's YouTube - @johnspencer328 Stay tuned for more thought-provoking discussions and eye-opening content! 👍🏽 Like and Subscribe to the channel!🔔 Head editor - Yinon Sofer
