Thane Rosenbaum | Moral Combat | Israel-Hamas War | Conversation with Shana Meyerson

Author: Shana Meyerson July 31, 2025 Duration: 1:59:30

If you’re anything like me, there is a good chance you wake up every morning these days, wary of what the new day will bring and go to sleep each night wondering what the hell just happened.

It’s been 22 months of Orwellian insanity and, to be honest, sometimes I just think I am losing my mind. October 7, 2023 was the day that common decency went out the window and basic morality decided to take a paid leave of absence.

People think this phenomenon of thinly masked anti-Zionist-flavored antisemitism is something new. It’s nothing new. It’s just good old-fashioned Jew Hatred on a new set of steroids in a dystopian reality where terrorism is all the rage and facts…well, they’re a matter of opinion.

The pseudo-intelligentsia have been consumed with useful idiocy, but somewhere in the abyss there does lie common sense and a voice of reason. Someone who can make sense of all the nonsense, and connect all the dots until the picture becomes clear.

That someone is Thane Rosenbaum.

In this conversation, Shana Meyerson of YOGAthletica and Thane Rosenbaum discuss the legal and moral implications of the war in Gaza and how the world got swept away in the tide of jihadi terror.

If you are a yogi or yogini who thinks Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza, you owe it to yourself to listen to this conversation about how propaganda and the weaponization of words really works...and why it is so easy to fall into its trap.

Hosted by Shana Meyerson, The Yoga of War Podcast: Fighting for Israel & The Jewish People exists in the complex space where spiritual principle meets stark reality. This podcast explores the profound moral and ethical questions surrounding the Israel-Gaza War, specifically through a pro-Israel lens, while being grounded in the ancient philosophy of yoga. The central, challenging tension is between the yogic tenet of Ahimsa-non-violence-and the duty to defend one’s community as discussed in texts like the Bhagavad Gita. Each episode features conversations with a diverse range of voices, from activists and thinkers to community leaders, who share their insights and personal reckonings with this conflict. Listeners will hear nuanced discussions that don’t shy away from the tragedy of war but instead seek to understand the justification and heavy responsibility of a defensive fight. It’s a series for those grappling with how to hold space for peace and spiritual non-violence while confronting the necessity of standing for Israel and Jewish peoplehood in a time of crisis. The dialogue in this podcast is intentionally focused, offering perspective and depth on current events filtered through enduring principles of faith, politics, and human dignity.
