Rethinking Heroes with Cary Harrison (Fridays @9AM) This episode explores the use of the Bible on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with a focus on the use of religious references by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to gain support. The situation was complicated by international politics and the weaponization of religion. 3. Don discussed the ancient trope of annihilating Amalek and its modern-day implications, explaining how Netanyahu used this concept to justify genocide against the Palestinians. 4. The team focused on the challenges faced by special operations forces during their transition from military to civilian life, with The Honor Foundation working to fill gaps in transition services provided by the Department of Defense. 5. He continues to advocate for veterans and raise awareness about veteran suicide.
