Behind Israel’s Iron Propaganda Dome / The Devil You Don’t Know: Private Equity
Friday, 9 January, 2026
In the first part of the program we welcome back Dr. Shir Hever to talk about whats really going on behind the media veil of an infallible Israel. Dr. Hever debunks Israels claims that they can become militarily independent, and the effect of both military embargoes and continued BDS pressure. Next up, Brendan Ballou joins the show to talk about private equity, the veritable ghost in the machine when it comes to the escalated vampiric takeover of our communities. Ballou outlines how vague, old laws combined with an impressively powerful revolving door protect these architects of our oppression from accountability, and what local and state governments can do now – without Congress – to protect the people from private equity.
