Episode Synopsis

Why is the word "genocide" being weaponized against Israel while true atrocities around the world go ignored? In this powerful episode of East to West, JCFA’s Sarah Martinez Amir sits down with Egyptian-born national security expert Khaled Hassan to expose the media’s dangerous manipulation of language, and its consequences for Jews worldwide.From Piers Morgan’s viral interviews to BBC Arabic’s October 7th coverage, Hassan unpacks how disinformation, selective outrage, and antisemitic undercurrents are reshaping public opinion. Together, they analyze why terms like “apartheid” and “genocide” are disproportionately applied to Israel, and how social media and alternative platforms are accelerating this shift.
