May 11, 2024 | #2419 - Celebrating Modern Israel’s Independence

The reestablishment of Jewish sovereignty in Israel was a significant milestone in the unfolding of God’s end-times prophetic plan—a sign that the end is near. The recurring conflict in the Middle East is a harbinger of an apocalyptic battle yet to come—the war of Gog and Magog. Our guest today, Doctor Jeffrey Seif, has written a timely book about the role of Iran in this coming war and how this role was foretold thousands of years ago by the prophets of Israel.

53 – Israel, Iran, and The Last Battle | Dr. Jeffrey Seif

Why does Israel face tremendous hostility from its neighbors? The answer runs much deeper than politics. Chris Katulka gives a clear picture of Israel’s enemies as he discusses his article “Israel’s Never-Ending Struggle” from our latest issue of Israel My Glory magazine with Steve Conover this week. From Hamas and Hezbollah to Iran and Lebanon, Israel has no shortage of oppressors. But Israel will always have hope because God promised to preserve Israel and bring lasting peace—and God’s Word never fails!

March 1, 2025 | #2509 - Beyond the Headlines: Stories of Israeli Displacement

The Middle East is a mess! As Israel battles terrorists, we’re taking time to track how this conflict came about. This week, we’ll analyze Israel’s watershed moment of the 21st century: Hamas’s October 7, 2023 massacre and kidnapping of Israeli civilians and the ensuing war Israel has fought against the terrorist group and other Iranian proxies. Since it began, Israel has decimated Hamas and Hezbollah and weakened Iran’s massive influence over the region, providing a glimpse of hope for the Middle East’s future. Listen to this clear explanation of the Israel-Hamas war, and discover the stories behind the Middle East today!

March 22, 2025 | #2512 - The Makings of Today’s Middle East, Part 3 of 3

Over the last several days, Israel has reported on a slew of Hamas war crimes, mainly ignored by the mainstream media. The body of Hamas' de-facto leader Muhamad Sinwar was found following a recent Israeli airstrike under a hospital in Khan Yunis. At the same time two terrorists posing as journalists were taken out, also while operating out of a hospital. In addition, it was determined that the "Gaza Civil Spokesman," is a known Hamas member, whose lies have been cited by the press as fact.

Israel Uncensored: Hamas War Crimes all Around

In this explosive episode of The Low Mein’s Asylum Show, we dive deep into the recent bombings Trump ordered on Iran and break down the bigger truth the media won’t tell you Israel started this.

We explore how Iran is responding to an Israeli airstrike that kicked off this entire escalation, and why the U.S. should not be jumping in to fight a war that was never ours to begin with. Even top Republicans like Rand Paul and Mike Lee are calling Trump out for dragging us into this mess without cause.

We talk real consequences, political manipulation, and why Israel needs to fight its own war without using American lives and money as collateral.

Tune in now. Wake up. Speak up.
