Скачать или смотреть Breaking Down the Hostage Deal: Strategy, Ethics & Risks

In this video, I dive deep into the hostage deal that’s currently on the table, breaking down what we know and what it means for the future. But before getting into the nitty-gritty details, I want to share not just my personal thoughts but also what the Torah says about hostage negotiations. For centuries, Jews have faced hostage situations, and the Torah provides clear guidance: while we are allowed to redeem hostages, we must be careful not to pay an exorbitant price—whether in money or by releasing dangerous criminals—because doing so emboldens our enemies. If they see that taking our people works, they’ll just do it again. This is a high-stakes issue, and we need to approach it with both compassion and strategy to avoid long-term consequences.

I also break down the current negotiations, how Israeli leaders are handling them, and what history has taught us about similar hostage deals in the past. These situations aren’t just about the people involved—they have massive geopolitical, military, and ethical implications. I discuss the psychological warfare behind these deals, how they impact national security, and why this isn’t just an issue for Israel but for the entire global fight against terrorism. Let’s explore the facts, the history, and the Torah’s perspective together—because understanding these challenges is the first step toward real solutions.
