The Daniel Rosehill Podcast

I made aliyah to Israel in 2015 (immigrated under the Law of Return). However, I didn't serve in the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF). I was asked by a subscriber why that's the case so I thought I would answer in this video. Video: Daniel Rosehill.

For many Jews around the world, the wake of October 7th - and the increase in antisemitism and extreme anti-Israel rhetoric - has created an uncomfortable and often depressing environment. #Antisemitism #IsraelHate Video and podcast by: Daniel Rosehill.

Successive reports from NGO Monitor have revealed that Ireland is pursuing a very selective anti-Israel policy in terms of how it uses Irish taxpayer money to fund NGOs agitating against Israel on the global stage. Some of these NGOs are even official affiliates of proscribed terrorist organisations including the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). == Timestamps == Intro - 00:00...

Part 7 of the Hamas interrogation tapes series: Ahmad Mohammed Hassan al-Kahlout sheds some more light on how Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad militants made military use out of hospitals in the Gaza Strip. Dubbing: Daniel Rosehill

Part 8 of the dubbed Hamas interrogation tapes series includes more revelations about Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad's exploiting of healthcare facilities in the Gaza Strip including making use of Red Crescent facilities and positioning operatives disguised as doctors, nurses and other medical staff in the center of major Gazan hospitals - including their intensive care units (ICUs).

Former Hamas Communications Minister Yousef al-Mansi describes disparaging attitudes towards Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar in the Gaza Strip - both from residents and members of the Hamas movement. Part 9 in my series of dubbed Hamas interrogation tapes. Dubbing and recording by: Daniel Rosehill.

Rabbi Eli Mansour has been a huge influence on my life so I thought it would be fitting to say 'thank you'. This Brooklyn-based rabbi from the Syrian Jewish community has been a pioneer of using the internet as a vehicle for Jewish education - reaching Jews in both traditional Jewish communities, Israel, and anywhere else that internet is available.

What do people in the pro-Israel community think about the mounting death toll in the Gaza Strip.

IsraelFAQs is a recently released platform to help advocates of Israel debunk lies told about Israel.

Since the outbreak of the October 7th war against Hamas in Gaza, Israelis are drinking more, smoking more, working out less, and using prescription sleeping aids in record numbers. But what are levels of smoking and tobacco use like in Israel generally - and how does Israel compare in this respect against other OECD member states?

In this video podcast I discuss what I see as three key challenges facing the future of the city of Jerusalem. These observations are informed by my almost ten years of living as a Jewish immigrant in the city and by findings from the Jerusalem Institute For Policy Research (JIPR) among other sources. I discuss the challenges of poverty, affordable housing, and security - and provide some ideas fo...

Opinion: Judaism is a religion rooted in the Land of Israel. Zionism is a national and political movement whose goal is to re-forge that ancient connection. One cannot oppose the right of the Jewish people to self-determination, and to practice their religion fully and freely, without opposing their religion itself.

Recently, Ireland has emerged as one of the most strident critics of Israel's response to the October 7th massacre. However, Ireland's antipathy to Israel seems to long predate this current conflict. In this episode, I discuss some potential explanations for why Ireland seems so mired in opposition to Israel. I touch also on antisemitism as well as the pro-Israel community in Ireland.

Why is Jerusalem Day such a controversial holiday ... and what does it signify for Israeli Jews? Is it just about celebrating Israel's capital city of Jerusalem or does it have some greater significance? By: Daniel Rosehill.

Professor Dan Ben-David, an expert in socioeconomics and President of the Shoresh Institution, has used a piece in The Times of Israel to argue that unless Israel course-corrects with its judicial reform proposals, that the country could become analogous to a "Jewish Afghanistan". Ben-David: “Without a complete overhaul of Israel’s education system (along the lines outlined in the previous article...

For followers of politics, life in Israel is seldom without its fair share of intrigue and drama.  The latest couple of weeks, however, have been marked by an especially intense uptick in all manner of events. Domestically, attention has been centred around far-reaching judicial reform proposals which threaten to greatly undermine the independence and power of the judiciary and which critics are l...

Discussing another batch of intriguing, weird, and random questions and comments from random people in random places around the world who watch my random YouTube channel.   Today's batch:   - What's actually cheap in Israel?  - Why is my TP-Link ER605 load balancing router not handling failover properly?  - If scientists know so much about functional dyspepsia why don't we have better treatments f...

Jerusalemites are commonly asked "why do you live in Jerusalem and not Tel Aviv?"  Even internationals sometimes assume that everyone living in Israel must live in Tel Aviv.  There are reasons why Jerusalem - Israel's capital - has its own charm and continues to attract many new residents to Israel.  With ongoing light rail development and construction, the city is also preparing to become better...

This morning, I wrote a blog post summarizing my experience, this year, working with a variety of organizations in remote and hybrid configurations. I believe that organizations that do remote working well have (among others) three standout features: they know how to manage appropriately in a remote environment; they document everything from the get-go; and they leverage asynchronous communication...

Functional dyspepsia (FD) is an often debilitating gastroenterological condition that afflicts millions of people around the world. It is divided into two subtypes — one dominated by epigastric pain and another by postprandial symptoms — and has long posed a challenge for clinicians and patients alike. Australian neurogastroenterologist and researcher Professor Nicholas J. Talley has been at the f...

In the first ever text to speech (TTS) narrated edition of this podcast, I (or the bots I used!) narrate a recent blog post that I shared on Medium.com explaining why, for now, I've decided that defining myself as a freelance writer is no longer the professional image that bests suits my needs and career objectives.  To read this podcast as a blog post: https://danielrosehill.medium.com/why-ive-st...
