CUFI Weekly

Iran's regime isn't just spreading terror across the Middle East. It's working to spread antisemitism and undermine America from within.

This week on the CUFI Weekly, Kasim discusses a troubling report from the Simon Wiesenthal Center detailing Iran's alleged influence operations and efforts to fuel antisemitism, manipulate public opinion, and deepen divisions in American society.

Three years after the horrors of October 7, Kasim Hafeez reflects on what followed—not only the unimaginable pain inflicted on Israel, but the world's response.

Unlike the global solidarity America experienced after 9/11, Israel faced condemnation and hostility almost immediately, even before its major military response began.

But October 7 is not only a story of tragedy.

It is also a story of the Israeli spirit: commu...

This week on CUFI Weekly, we examine a frightening question: what happens when the people and institutions we are supposed to trust no longer feel safe?An Israel-bound Flydubai flight narrowly avoided catastrophe after a pilot allegedly stabbed the captain and attempted to crash the aircraft—an incident Israeli authorities are investigating as a possible terror attack with chilling echoes of 9/11.

Meanwhile, in  Britain, ...

More than 5,600 miles separate Binyamin in Samaria from Belleville, Ontario—but this Yom Kippur, both were touched by violence as Jewish communities prepared to observe their holiest day.

In Binyamin, a father of six was murdered in a terrorist attack. In Belleville, a police officer guarding a synagogue was shot as worshippers gathered.

In this episode of CUFI Weekly, we ask why Jews around the world still face danger sim...

Those who fail to learn from history risk repeating its darkest chapters. This week on CUFI Weekly, we mark the anniversaries of the Abraham Accords and Camp David to examine what peace demands: courage, leadership, and a willingness to reject hatred. From Anwar Sadat’s assassination after choosing peace with Israel to Mahsa Amini’s death under Iran’s oppressive regime, we confront the forces that punish courage a...

Twenty-five years after September 11, America appears to be forgetting the lessons written in blood that day. Instead of uniting against terrorism, we now see extremists celebrated, terrorist organizations defended and violence excused as “resistance.”

Terrorism does not seek peace or coexistence. It targets those who disagree, silences opposition and murders innocent people who simply want to live their lives.

In this episode of the CUFI Weekly, we’re looking at what Jewish students are facing on college campuses across America and the alarming rise of antisemitism in places that should be safe for every student. From harassment and intimidation to the normalization of anti-Jewish hatred, Jewish students are being confronted with warning signs that are difficult to ignore.

For Holocaust survivors, these warning signs are especially ...

In this episode of the CUFI Weekly, we’re looking at recent archaeological discoveries in Israel and the stories they tell about the people, places, and events of the biblical world. From ancient artifacts to physical evidence uncovered beneath the ground, archaeology continues to provide important insight into the history of the land of Israel and the Jewish people who have called it home for thousands of years.

As critics at...

What happens when antisemitism becomes a political strategy?

In this week’s CUFI Weekly, we take a closer look at the growing use of anti-Israel and antisemitic rhetoric in political discourse, and what it means for the Jewish community, Israel, and those who stand against hatred. From inflammatory rhetoric to the normalization of dangerous ideas, antisemitism cannot be dismissed as simply another political talking point.

Histo...

Throughout history, nations have made promises, signed agreements, and entered into deals with the expectation that those commitments would be honored. But history also shows us what happens when promises are broken and why understanding the past matters when making decisions about the future.

In this week’s CUFI Weekly, we examine what history reveals about trust between nations and the consequences of relying on agreements t...

Two years ago, a Hezbollah rocket struck a soccer field in Majdal Shams, murdering 12 Druze children and teenagers. We remember their lives, and we confront what this attack revealed about Hezbollah and the terrorists it represents.

There is also a battle being waged for the minds of our children. Influencers and activists are using trusted platforms to erase victims, sanitize terrorism, and teach young people to see Israel as the v...

As the Jewish people observe Tisha B’Av and mourn the destruction of the Temples in Jerusalem, we reflect on their ancient, unbroken connection to the Holy City. We also confront a growing falsehood promoted by online talking heads: the claim that Jesus was not Jewish.

Scripture leaves no room for confusion—Jesus was born Jewish, lived Jewish, worshiped as a Jew, and was called the King of the Jews. Christians must stop ...

On this week's CUFI weekly, we examine Israel's decision to send humanitarian aid and disaster relief to Venezuela—even after years of hostility, severed diplomatic relations, and the Maduro regime's alignment with Iran, Syria, and other adversaries.

In a world where many are quick to post, condemn, and perform outrage online, Israel continues to let its actions speak louder than words. Time and again, the Jewish state has cro...

Jesus taught that the greatest commandment is to love God with all your heart, soul, and mind—and the second is like it: love your neighbor as yourself. Those two commands are inseparable.

In this week's CUFI Weekly, we examine how a phrase as profound as "Christ is King" is being twisted by some to target and intimidate Jewish people. A declaration meant to honor Christ should never become a weapon of hatred.

As followers of J...

As America prepares to celebrate 250 years of independence, we have more than a milestone to commemorate—we have a legacy to defend.

This week, we reflect on the American experiment: the God-given freedoms that have made our nation a beacon of hope, the opportunities that lie ahead, and the responsibility each generation bears to preserve them. Freedom is never guaranteed. It endures only when courageous people stand for the p...

This week, Kasim reflects on the anniversary of D-Day and the extraordinary courage of those who stormed the beaches of Normandy to defeat the Nazi menace and defend freedom around the world.

Yet just days later, America witnessed the troubling reality of a candidate bearing a Nazi tattoo winning a Democratic primary election. What does it say about our culture when symbols of one of history’s most evil ideologies are no longe...
