When the Roman army arrived on the shores of the Holy Land in 63 BCE, no one could have imagined the havoc they would wreak on the Jews of Judea. By destroying the Temple, they forever changed how and where the Jews would direct their spiritual energy. But far from being the beginning of the end, it was just the start of a whole new era in Jewish history. New episodes of “The Jewish Story Explained” launch every other Monday.

New channel alert https://youtube.com/@todayunpacked While Jews may all share aspects of the same religion, culture, and history, they may not all share the same languages. Throughout time, Jews have spread across the globe and the language of much of their communication has been influenced by the cultures around them. From Yiddish which originated in medieval Germany, to Ladino which was developed by Sephardic Jews after their expulsion from Spain, to the various Judeo-Arabic dialects, language has been a key insight into a diverse linguistic heritage that spans centuries.

In many ways, Rabin’s life has been overshadowed by his death but there’s so much more to him than the tragic way he died. Revered by some, despised by others, Rabin was a man of contradictions and paradoxes - and he left behind a complicated legacy in his pursuit of peace. A giant on the public stage, Rabin was plagued by doubts and anxiety in private. A fighter and veteran of wars, Rabin gave his life for his country - a country divided by his actions. Join us as we look past Yitzchak Rabin’s assassination and try to understand one of Israel’s most famous leaders. Let us know what you think about this video and about Rabin’s life and legacy.

Americans tend to overestimate how much the U.S. gives to other countries in foreign aid. Many assume that the U.S. gives 25% of their budget to other countries through foreign aid, but in reality that budget is less than 1%, around $40 million, and is split into three categories: humanitarian, economic, and military. Unlike other countries in the Middle East, U.S. aid to Israel is almost exclusively military aid that functions kind of like “gift certificates”. The U.S. produces military equipment and gives money to other countries, like Israel, to use to purchase equipment from American manufacturers. This helps boost the U.S. economy, creates jobs and strengthens its military relationships with these countries. 1973 was the first year the U.S. provided $492 million in military aid to Israel, but just a year later that raised to $2.6 billion due to the Yom Kippur war, when Egypt and Syria launched a surprise attack on Israel. The U.S. launched Operation Nickel Grass to help Israel and sent them 22 thousand tons of ammunition, helping them win the war. The historical events that have transpired since then have raised awareness to U.S. politicians on the importance of having Israel as their active ally in the Middle East. Overall, U.S. foreign aid given to Israel has bipartisan support, however not everyone approves this policy. Some Americans on the progressive left feel that aid to Israel should be conditional, while some Israelis have argued that receiving this aid makes Israel too dependent on the U.S. Subscribe and turn on your notifications so you don’t miss future uploads! https://www.youtube.com/UNPACKED?sub_confirmation=1 Recommended video— Understanding Israeli Politics: Right, Left, Elections, Netanyahu & Everything in Between https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55UxLCjHwlc&list=PL-DNOnmKkUaZrTGuvoIJFOgn4nr375SR_&index=8 We have merch! – http://shop.jewishunpacked.com/?utm_medium=youtube&utm_source=video-description&utm_campaign=merch Let’s connect: Website — https://www.jewishunpacked.com Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/jewishunpacked Twitter — https://twitter.com/jewishunpacked TikTok — https://www.tiktok.com/@jewishunpacked Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/jewishunpacked ----------- Image and footage credits: – ABC News – AP – BBC News – Belfer Center – The Borgen project – Carter Center – CCTV America – C-SPAN – DefenseNews – Florida Memory – Forbes – Gerald R.
