    • Is the Middle East Moving Towards Cooperation?
      May 5 2025

      This April, the N7 Initiative convened a dialogue on the future of the I2U2 Group in New Delhi, India, on April 23, 2025. The event brought together senior officials, private sector leaders, and policy experts from the four countries participating in I2U2: India, Israel, the UAE, and the United States. It was the first convening of this group in almost two years. The I2U2 Group was formed in July 2022 to improve connectivity between the countries and tackle challenges that cut across the Middle East and Indo-Pacific and impact the United States. In today's episode, Dominique speaks with N7 Associate Director Emily Milliken to discuss the potential of the Israel-India relationship, how increased cooperation with the I2U2 group is related to the Abraham Accords, and the possibility of seeing them expand to more member states.

    • Yale's attack on Jews this Holocaust Remembrance Day
      Apr 30 2025

      Antisemitism at Yale University has become a significant concern, particularly following the October 2023 Hamas attacks. Jewish students have reported increased hostility, including verbal harassment, physical intimidation, and exclusion from campus events. These incidents have prompted federal investigations, administrative actions, and widespread debate over the balance between free speech and campus safety. Yale's response has been influenced by federal scrutiny. In April 2025, the university revoked the student organization status of Yalies4Palestine, a group involved in recent pro-Palestinian demonstrations, citing violations of university policies. The U.S. Department of Education's Task Force to Combat Antisemitism praised this decision. However, some students and faculty argue that Yale's actions were motivated more by the threat of federal funding cuts than by a commitment to addressing antisemitism. Over the last week, Yale has once again been in the news as pro-Palestinian students harassed and intimidated Jewish students during Holocaust Remembrance Day, highlighting the dangerous repeat of history flourishing on American campuses.

    • The Strange Death of Experts
      Apr 29 2025

      In today's episode, Dominique brings Isaac Woodward back for a part two reaction to the Douglas Murray-Dave Smith debate, focusing on the facts of the Israel-Hamas war, the nature of warfare, and the death of the expert class in a post-COVID world primed to accept conspiracy theories platformed on new media channels. The rise of decentralized information and the rejection of academic institutions and historical methods has led to the rise of alternative histories and war reports that fuel misinformation and anti-Israel campaigns.
