Crocodiles, Guns & Ben-Gvir: Yishai Fleisher (Otzma Yehudit) on Israel Electioncast

Season 3 · Episode 2

Tuesday, September 29, 2026 • Duration 01:11:42

👉Support the podcast and join a subscriber only Q&A webinar

🎙 Filmed at M10 Studios, Tel Aviv

Can a crocodile-filled prison moat deter terrorism—and how will acting like a crazy man boost Israel's image?

Otzma Yehudit’s Yishai Fleisher joins Eylon Levy ahead of the first Israeli election after the October 7 massacre.

His choices: deterrence, Aliyah and international legitimacy. Eylon’s fourth: law and order.

Fleisher defends wider gun licensing, tougher prisons and a ministry to encourage Gazans to emigrate. He proposes Hebrew classes to encourage Jewish immigration, while arguing to review whether Reform converts should even be eligible to make Israel their home.

Eylon presses him on Ben-Gvir’s hangman’s-noose imagery, Israel’s reputation and policing vigilante violence in Judea and Samaria.

The Israel Electioncast is for English-speaking Israelis and international viewers who want to understand what Israelis are really arguing about before the critical October 27 elections.

🎙 Filmed at M10 Studios, Tel Aviv

This is the last episode of this series. We’ll be back in late September with a special Israel Electioncast series, grilling the candidates for Knesset on their manifestos.

Hamas can establish a narrative in minutes. Israel may need hours to establish the truth—and by then, the damage has already been done.

In this episode of EylON the Record, Eylon Levy speaks with Rachel Lester, a former video editor in the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit and author of Digital Warrior: Inside Israel’s Battle for the Narrative After October 7, about what happened behind the scenes during Israel’s information war. Drawing on their experiences inside the IDF and Prime Minister’s Office, they examine why Israel struggled to communicate during the opening months of the war—and how those failures affected its international legitimacy and freedom to fight.

In this episode, we discuss:

How Hamas uses civilian casualties and graphic images to turn military losses into international pressure on Israel
Why the four-hour silence after the Al-Ahli Hospital explosion allowed a false narrative to spread around the world
Whether Israel made a strategic mistake by withholding graphic footage of the October 7 atrocities
How bureaucracy, competing audiences and institutional dysfunction undermined Israel’s wartime messaging

This is not simply a debate about whether Israel has “bad PR.” In modern warfare, public opinion shapes diplomatic pressure, military decisions and whether democracies are permitted to defend themselves. When lies travel instantly but the truth requires verification, accuracy alone may not be enough to win.

🎯 Key moment: “Hamas has basically made sure that whatever Israel does, we lose.”

This Is How Turkey Quietly Influences Americans

Turkey’s ruling party has spent $6.2 million establishing a permanent presence in Washington—run by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s cousin. Its representatives have gained access to senior American officials, journalists, activists, and media figures, but its government filings reveal almost nothing about what was discussed.

In this episode of EylON the Record, Eylon Levy speaks with OSINT investigator Eitan Fischberger about the AKP’s Washington headquarters, the extraordinary range of figures its representative Halil Mutlu has met, and what Turkey may be seeking from its expanding influence operation. As Ankara’s ambitions increasingly clash with the interests of Israel and the United States, the question is not whether Turkey is trying to shape American policy and public opinion—but how, and toward what end.

In this episode, we discuss:

- How Erdoğan’s cousin became the AKP’s representative in Washington and gained access to senior members of Congress, government committees, journalists, and podcasters
- The reported meetings with Mehdi Hasan, CAIR, Code Pink, John Kiriakou, and Tucker Carlson’s business partner
- Why FARA filings can disclose who foreign agents meet while revealing almost nothing about what they are trying to accomplish
- Turkey’s efforts to regain access to the F-35 program, weaken support for Israel and the Kurds, rehabilitate Erdoğan’s image, and establish itself as the Middle East’s dominant regional power

This is about more than lobbying. Turkey remains a NATO member while maintaining close relations with Russia, supporting Hamas, confronting Israel, and pursuing an increasingly assertive regional agenda. If Ankara can shape how Americans understand the Middle East while concealing the purpose of its political outreach, it can advance that agenda with far less scrutiny.

🎯 Key moment:
“If everyone is focusing on Israel, then nobody’s focusing on Turkey. And then Turkey can continue to do what it’s doing.”

Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan have promised to treat an attack against one as an attack against all. Is this new “Islamic NATO” an empty declaration—or the beginning of a military alliance aimed at Israel and the West?

In this episode of EylON the Record, Eylon Levy speaks with Gregg Roman, Executive Director of the Middle East Forum, about the new Mecca Agreement, Turkey’s attempt to expand its regional power and whether NATO is tolerating a Trojan horse within its own ranks. They debate whether the alliance is a paper tiger or an early warning of a strategic realignment that could threaten Israel, weaken American influence and reshape the regional balance of power.

In this episode, we discuss:

- Whether the Mecca Agreement represents a credible military alliance or conflicting national agendas disguised as collective defense
- Why Turkey may pose a greater threat through its independent regional expansion than through its alliance with Saudi Arabia and Pakistan
- Whether Israel should build a counter-alliance with India, the UAE, Greece, Cyprus and other regional partners
- What military deployments would signal that the agreement is becoming a genuine threat—and whether NATO should expel Turkey

The danger may not lie in the agreement as it exists today, but in the ambitions it could enable tomorrow. For Israel and the West, the challenge is deciding when strategic skepticism becomes complacency—and whether waiting for hostile commitments to become military reality means waiting too long.

🎯 Key moment:
“This is about a Turkish takeover of the region. It is not about having equanimity and mutual defense alliances between larger states that are in the region.”

"Israel Orchestrated Spain’s Border Crisis!" and Other Crazy Conspiracies | Asher Westropp-Evans

When thousands of Moroccans crossed into Spain’s North African enclaves, the internet found a familiar culprit: Israel. The claim was baseless—but it spread from fringe accounts to influential commentators, politicians, and human rights figures.

In this episode of EylON the Record, Eylon Levy speaks with Asher Westropp-Evans, director of the Spokes Office and producer of the State of a Nation podcast, about how the crisis in Ceuta and Melilla became the latest vehicle for anti-Israel conspiracy theories. They examine why voices on both the far left and far right strip other countries of agency, turn isolated Israeli remarks into evidence of a global plot, and use Israel as a scapegoat for political failures that have nothing to do with it.

In this episode, we discuss:

- How commentators including Anna Kasparian, Cenk Uygur, Hasan Piker, Kenneth Roth, and Nick Fuentes helped spread or legitimize claims connecting Israel to the crisis.
- How comments by Yair Netanyahu and Danny Danon were stripped of context and repackaged as supposed evidence of Israeli intentions.
- Why Morocco’s tensions with Spain, the Western Sahara dispute, and - Spain’s domestic political failures disappear once Israel becomes the explanation.
- How antizionism brings the far left and far right together around a worldview that blames the Jewish state for nearly every global crisis.

This is about more than one absurd conspiracy theory. When Israel is repeatedly presented as the hidden force behind every war, migration crisis, and political failure, legitimate criticism gives way to a worldview that treats the Jewish state as a cosmic evil whose removal would supposedly cure the world’s problems. Repetition makes even the most irrational accusation feel plausible.

🎯 Key moment:
“That’s the whole point of a scapegoat. Literally, you put your sins onto a goat and chuck it off a cliff.”

The anti-Israel shift in the West did not begin on October 7. The narrative was financed, institutionalized, and taught for years before the world saw its consequences.

In this episode of EylON the Record, Eylon Levy speaks with Ofir Dayan, head of the Antisemitism and Delegitimization Research Team at Israel’s Institute for National Security Studies and author of Intifada Globalized: Why Young Westerners Are Turning Away from Israel. They examine how Qatar and other foreign actors built influence across American universities, schools, media, lobbying firms, and political networks—and whether Israel entered the information war too late to reverse the damage.

In this episode, we discuss:

• How Qatar spread its influence through universities, think tanks, public-relations firms, law firms, teacher-training programs, and carefully targeted investments.

• Why the anti-Israel movement on American campuses was already organized and institutionalized long before October 7.

• Whether Israel should conduct its own influence campaigns—and why its recent efforts have appeared unprofessional, reactive, and easy to expose.

• The story Israel must tell about Jewish indigeneity, sovereignty, and the wider assault on Western democratic values.

This is not simply a debate about better messaging. Public opinion affects military alliances, arms supplies, diplomatic support, and Israel’s ability to defend its citizens. Treating the information war as an afterthought has become a national-security risk.

🎯 Key moment:
“We’re fighting emotions, we’re fighting narratives, we’re not fighting facts.”

For years, many in the West dismissed Turkey's threats as political theater. But what if they're making the same mistake they made before October 7?

In this episode of EylON the Record, Eylon Levy speaks with Eitan Fischberger, OSINT investigator and author of The Fisch Files, about Turkey's increasingly hostile posture toward Israel, its growing influence inside NATO, and the sophisticated information operations shaping Western public opinion. They examine whether Ankara is exploiting its position inside the Western alliance while advancing an agenda fundamentally at odds with it—and why policymakers may be underestimating the strategic consequences.

In this episode, we discuss:

How Turkish state-linked influence networks quietly shape Western discourse online.
Why Erdogan's rhetoric toward Israel has become increasingly eliminationist—and why it deserves to be taken seriously.
Whether Turkey is acting as a Trojan horse inside NATO while deepening ties to Hamas, Russia, and the Muslim Brotherhood.
Why weakening Israel ultimately weakens the broader Western alliance.

The debate over Turkey is no longer just about one country's foreign policy. It is about whether democratic alliances can recognize ideological threats before they become strategic ones. If Western governments ignore hostile rhetoric because it comes from an ally rather than an adversary, they risk repeating dangerous mistakes.

🎯 Key moment:

"Turkey plays this inside-outside game where they like to pretend that they're friends of the West and friends of NATO... but in reality, that just sort of masks their actual agenda, which is something else entirely, and I would argue anti-Western and anti-American in particular."

This is a moment that calls for American leadership. But if the Iran MOU gives Tehran legitimacy before dismantling its nuclear threat — and the UN system empowers America’s adversaries while America pays for it — what kind of leadership is the West actually getting?

In this episode of EylON the Record, Eylon Levy speaks with Asher Fredman, Executive Director of the Misgav Institute and former senior official in Israel’s Prime Minister’s Office, Ministry of Public Security, and Ministry of Strategic Affairs, about the Trump administration’s memorandum of understanding with Iran, the strategic consequences for Israel, and Misgav’s new report arguing that the United States should withdraw from much of the UN system and build better alternatives. Together, they ask whether American power is being used to lead — or to legitimize institutions and agreements that reward America’s adversaries.

In this episode, we discuss:

Why it’s problematic for the Iran MOU to give Tehran sanctions relief and hard cash before Iran dismantles its nuclear threat
The Misgav Institute’s report, From UN Bureaucracy to American Global Leadership, and its case for why the United States should disengage from the UN
How China and other adversarial powers use the UN system to constrain America while relying on American funding
Why anti-Israel bias at the UN is not only an Israeli problem, but a warning for every democracy fighting terror

Read the Misgav Institute report discussed in this episode:
https://www.misgavins.org/en/fredman-un-bureaucracy-us-leadership/

Beyond the headlines, this conversation is about whether America can still shape the international order — or whether it is funding, legitimizing, and deferring to systems that now work against its own interests. For Israel, the question is even sharper: when diplomacy rewards Tehran and the UN gives hostile actors a global platform, Israel may have to rely less on being understood, and more on becoming indispensable.

There is a price to war. But there is also a price to ending a war on the enemy’s terms — and that price can be more war.

In this episode of EylON the Record, Eylon Levy speaks with listeners in an emergency solo episode after Israel and Iran traded fire in a dangerous 24-hour escalation. He explains why the question is not simply whether Israel should “stop shooting,” but whether Iran can use missile attacks to force Israel to stop defending itself against Hezbollah. At stake is the future of deterrence, the freedom of Lebanon, the security of northern Israel, and whether Iranian proxy armies can drag the region into war whenever Tehran decides.

In this episode, we discuss:

Why Iran’s missile fire was really about protecting Hezbollah from Israeli retaliation
The danger of ending a war too soon if it rewards aggression and invites the next round
How Iran’s “ring of fire” — Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis — has become a strategic liability for Tehran
The “Pride paradox”: why Israelis want normal life to resume, but cannot accept a reality where Iran can cancel it at will

This episode moves beyond the headlines of ceasefires, missile salvos, and calls for restraint. The deeper question is whether Israel can be expected to absorb attacks from Iranian-backed forces while the world demands calm from the country being targeted. If Iran learns that firing missiles at Israeli cities carries no price, the next escalation will not be a surprise. It will be the result of a message the world allowed Tehran to hear.

🎯 Key moment:
“If you want peace, you don’t reward aggression. If you want Lebanon free, you don’t give Hezbollah immunity.”
