About this listen

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wig7ja6GLlU Podcast audio In this episode of the Ayn Rand Institute Podcast, Elan Journo, Nikos Sotirakopoulos, and Tristan De Liège explore how altruism clouds moral clarity about the Israel-Hamas war, undermining Israel’s righteous cause and whitewashing Hamas’ evil. Among the topics covered: How the media coverage of the war has become egregiously deferential to Hamas and Hezbollah; How altruism corrupts journalism by distorting moral judgment; Why media deception deliberately aims to manipulate emotions; The nature of Hamas’s totalitarian ideology; Why genocide claims flout serious thinking about innocents in war; How altruism cripples Israel's moral confidence in its cause. Recommended in this podcast is Elan Journo's book What Justice Demands: America and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. This podcast was recorded on August 13, 2025 and posted on August 21, 2025.
