The Future of Israel and the American Right | Tom Woods Show #2807

William Wolfe gave a speech in Jerusalem about Israel and the American right that ignited a firestorm; J. Burden and I discuss. William Wolfe's speech at NatCon Jerusalem — and the meltdown it caused — is the tell for the bigger fight happening inside the American right right now. NatCon is Yoram Hazony's National Conservatism conference, and holding an event in Jerusalem left plenty of people expecting the usual: American conservatives arriving to perform loyalty. Wolfe did the opposite. In roughly twenty minutes he told a mostly Israeli audience that the old arrangement between the United States and Israel is ending, and that it will not be saved by appeals to the Bible or by rote accusations of antisemitism. J. Burden and I break down: • Wolfe's three reasons the American right is shifting — war weariness and the Middle East forever wars, the post-Trump turn toward national sovereignty, and the treatment of Christians in the Middle East • The coalition math he laid out about the Jewish share of the Republican electorate, and why it landed like a grenade • His closing appeal to Washington's Farewell Address — "habitual hatred or a habitual fondness" — and what that means for a policy that no longer tracks public opinion • The reaction: Amanda Milius, Megan Basham, George Kennan, Leo Strauss and Pat Buchanan all getting pulled into the crossfire • Why the accusation machine is running out of ammunition, and who it's actually driving away • J.'s map of the three parties now fighting over the right's future — the hawks, the middle, and the hardliners • The foreign flags in congressional offices, the Jonathan Pollard embassy visit, and the double standards that wear on people Chapters: 00:00 Welcome and Setup 01:14 What Is NatCon 03:15 Wolfe’s Message to Israel 05:22 Why the Backlash 09:57 Wolfe’s Key Arguments 15:56 Sponsor Break CrowdHealth 18:05 Neocons Turn on Allies 23:59 Fight for the Right’s Future 28:11 Tom’s Takeaways 30:05 Local SEO and AI Search 31:00 Defining Antisemitism Debate 34:02 Good Faith vs Far Right 35:48 Foreign Flags in Congress 39:02 Netanyahu and US Sentiment 42:34 Double Standards and Pollard 46:16 Buchanan Quotes and AIPAC 48:52 Propaganda Claims and Reagan 54:13 Old Guard Losing Control 56:10 Show Plugs and Sign Off (Ep. 2807 of the Tom Woods Show) Sponsors: Persist Marketing: https://Persist.Marketing CrowdHealth - https://joincrowdhealth.com code: WOODS for $99 per month for the first 3 months Show notes page: https://tomwoods.com/2807 Guest's Twitter https://x.com/_jburden Speech Discussed "America First Means America First" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TkzFhUS0jg Other Important Links: https://SupportingListeners.com https://TomSchoolofLife.com https://LibertyClassroom.com https://RonPaulHomeschool.com https://NationalDivorce.com Audio & Video Production & Thumbnails by: Podsworth Media https://podsworth.com Check out the Podsworth App: Use code WOODS50 for 50% off your first order at Podsworth.com to clean up your voice recordings, sound like a pro, and also support the Tom Woods Show!
