Episode 462
Wednesday, 18 February, 2026
Please take 5 minutes to fill out Ark Media’s LISTENER SURVEY____Do most people misunderstand the true nature of Antizionism?Dan sits down with renowned computer scientist and public intellectual Judea Pearl to understand why he coined the term “Zionophobia.” Pearl argues that Antizionism is not simply policy criticism but a rejection of Jewish collective sovereignty.Pearl shares his personal story, that dates back to the founding of Israel, and explains how the murder of his son, Daniel Pearl, and the violence of the Second Intifada have reshaped his thinking about Israel, identity, and moral clarity. The conversation spans failed peace efforts, the politics of language, the meaning of indigeneity, and Pearl’s warning that Israel’s greatest long-term vulnerability may be the erosion of bipartisan American support.Read Judea’s book Coexistence and Other Fighting WordsIn this episode:- From AI pioneer to Zionist advocate- “Zionophobia,” not anti-Semitism- Terrorism, moral asymmetry, and the Carter controversy- Why peace efforts failed and what was misunderstood- Indigeneity, sovereignty, and competing narratives- Education as the true battlefield- The bipartisan question and Israel’s strategic futureMore Ark Media:Subscribe to Inside Call me BackExplore Israel VotesListen to For Heaven's SakeListen to What’s Your Number?Watch Call me Back on YouTubeNewsletters | Ark Media | Amit Segal | Nadav EyalInstagram | Ark Media | DanX | DanDan Senor & Saul Singer’s book, The Genius of IsraelGet in touchCredits: Ilan Benatar, Adaam James Levin-Areddy, Brittany Cohen, Ava Weiner, Martin Huergo, Mariangeles Burgos, and Patricio Spadavecchia, Yuval Semo
