VDH UltraThe Players of the Gazan “War” and Their Strategies: Part Six: America, Europe, and the American Street
Victor Davis Hanson The U.S. What is the American interest in the Gazan war? It is clearly threefold. One, America seeks to protect the only constitutional government in the Middle East from its myriad of Iranian terrorist proxies. Our role then is to provide Israel with enough weapons to replenish its stocks and survive, share […]
Military Academies, Our Censors and the US Debt
Join Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler as they discuss the DEI culture destroying military academies, Jill Stein and others as third party candidates, the West Coast elite’s censorship efforts and their patina of respectability, and the US debt.
When Has War Even Been ‘Proportional?’
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Proportionality in war is a synonym for lethal stalemate, if not defeat. When two sides go at it with roughly equal forces, weapons, and strategies, the result is often a horrific deadlock—like the four years of toxic trench warfare on the Western Front of World War I that resulted in […]
VDH UltraThe Players of the Gazan “War” and Their Strategies: Part Five: Russians, Chinese, and the UN Crowd
Victor Davis Hanson Russia Russia will not intervene to save Hamas or Hezbollah. It is broke, tied down in Ukraine, and despises Islam, as we saw when it flattened Chechnya. However, Putin also does all he can to weaken the U.S. So expect Russia to favor the terrorists, make it difficult for the IDF to […]
VDH UltraThe Players of the Gazan “War” and Their Strategies: Part Four: Qatar and The Gazans
Victor Davis Hanson Qatar Like Turkey, by any classical definition, Qatar is belligerent and anti-American. It hosts the anti-Western propaganda megaphone of the Middle East Al Jazeera. It also courts the Hamas apparat, including those who helped plan the October 7 massacres. It is the financial conduit for most radical, anti-western terror groups. Yet Qatar […]
The Complicit and the Insurrectionary
Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler consider Obama’s role in October 7, our leaders’ erroneous worries about a disproportionate response by Israel, New York city protests, the DEI industry turning the US into a third-rate country, and China’s Xi coming to San Francisco.
The Damage of the ‘White Privilege’ Smear
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness One of the many satanic paradoxes of the Third Reich’s architecture of the Final Solution was the requirement—mandated after the 1939 outbreak of the war—that Jews anywhere under German rule or occupation had to wear a yellow badge or armband with the Star or David. Yet was not all this […]

VDH UltraThe Players of the Gazan “War” and Their Strategies: Part Three: Turkey
Victor Davis Hanson Then we come to the increasingly unambiguous role of Turkey. Ostensibly, Turkey is a critical U.S. and NATO ally. It possesses NATO’s largest military aside from America’s, and its geographical location is critical for NATO security concerns—controlling the historical Bosporus with its opening to the Black Sea and situated in the heart […]
Modern Tribalism Wounds America
VDH on how globalization and tribalism hurts the value of democracy today, especially when we look at the complication of modern geopolitical uncertainties.
Squeezing the World’s Vulnerable Peoples
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness The population of Israel is about 10 million. This represents about half of the world’s Jewish people. The founding idea of modern Israel was to offer a sanctuary for Jews in their biblical home in the Middle East, in the aftermath of Nazi Germany’s mass murder of 6 million Jews. […]
Ripples of War Everywhere
In this episode, Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler weigh the US interfering in Israeli politics against Netanyahu, the Wagner Group helping Hezbollah, Obama’s record in the Middle East, the “loan repayment” hoax, and Biden family toxicity.
VDH UltraThe Players of the Gazan “War” and Their Strategies: Part Two: Iran and the Arab World
Victor Davis Hanson Iran Iran believes in defense-in-depth. Such a strategy puts its well-armed pawns Hezbollah and Hamas on the front lines as a buffer between Tehran and the infidels: the Arabs take the risk and casualties, and the Iranians thereby hope they inflict some damage on Israel or the U.S. while avoiding a deadly […]
From Top-Down Anti-Semitism to City Mayors’ Pleas to Close the Border
Listen to Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Jack Fowler discuss the anti-Semitism found in the Democratic Party and universities, colleges with a classic inductive curriculum, corporations find woke can mean broke, the evidence demonstrating Islamophobia not as bad a anti-Semitism, and pleas by city mayors who need Biden to stop the flow of illegals.
VDH UltraThe Players of the Gazan “War” and Their Strategies: Part One: the Terrorists of Hamas and Hezbollah
Hamas Hamas was quite clever in lying to the IDF, Mossad, and the Israeli government that it was finally resigned to fostering its own internal development. Its guest workers inside Israel—sometimes 20,000 a day—supposedly were emissaries of goodwill and would spike prosperity in Gaza. Hamas talked of its rivalries with the Palestinian Authority and for […]
The Mindset of Our Anti-Semites
Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness Peruse campus literature. Watch clips from university protests. Scan interviews with pro-Hamas protestors. Read the chalk propaganda sketched on campus sidewalks. Talk to raging students in the free speech area. And the one common denominator— besides their arrogance—is their abject ignorance. Take their following tired talking points: “Refugees” We are […]
Hamas, the Left, and our DHS
Join Victor Davis Hanson and cohost Sami Winc for this Friday news roundup: the Hamas spokesman says “again and again,” Mayorkas can’t answer questions about anti-Semites in his midst, a second front for Iran, Mike Johnson’s early days, and tracing the Biden’ laundered money.

You are a disgraceful piece of fucking shit whose education has been wasted on anti-American, conspiracy minded propaganda. You have no insight on reality or even human decency.
