About this listen

 The program is replayed Fridays between 2PM and 3PM on Melbourne’s 3ZZZ 92.3FM Title: President Isaac Herzog – My message to all the “useful idiots” (*from 0:35 mins) Description: Israeli President Isaac Herzog, who was invited to Australia by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese following the Bondi terror attack in which 15 people were killed and dozens injured at a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach, addressing the members of the Melbourne Jewish community including 250 senior students from Melbourne’s Jewish Day Schools, at the ZFA event on Thursday, February 12, 2026. Title: Lt Col (res) Sarit Zehavi – Lebanon, Syria, and Iran: damned if Israel does, damned if Israel doesn't (*from 7:42 mins) Description: Maurice Klein speaks with Lt Col (res) Sarit Zehavi, the founder and president of the Alma Center in Israel, a non-profit and an independent research and education center, specializing in understanding the security challenges on Israel's Northern border. Sarit was selected by the Jerusalem Post as one of the Top 50 Most Influential Jews of 2021 and has been interviewed well over 500 times by the world media post-October 7. Sarit provides us with a comprehensive update on the extensive efforts of Hezbollah, the state within a state in Lebanon, to regroup after the war with Israel late 2024. Sarit then details the dilemma that Israel has with Syria's nascent President-by-force, Islamist Ahmed Al-Sharaa, along with the most confronting issues that Israel has with the Islamic regime of Iran, that as we have recently seen, will in a heartbeat and with no compunction, kills its own people by the many, many thousands at a time. To quote Elie Wiesel again, "When someone says they want to kill you, believe them". To receive a most informative weekly ALMA email and to support Sarit Zehavi, with the very important ALMA mission, all the information is available at www.alma-israel.org. ALMA can also be followed on social media.

Their lives changed forever as they endured beating and torture in the infamous Evin Prison, other hidden detention facilities, life on the run, hiding, avoiding IRGC traps, and rejected visas due to IRGC reach, but eventual, miraculous saving by the fortuitous intervention of fellow ex-prisoner, Dr Kylie Moore-Gilbert. Mahyar tells their incredible story of survival and escape.
