Fighting Jihad, Supporting Israel, & Empowering Feminists

As Western politicians and media are trying hard not to inflame Islamic radicals, VOI's Daniel Seaman and Daniela Traub discuss the statements by Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi that identify Jihadist threats to the West and to Islam itself.

Then, female candidates recorded success in recent Labor party primaries, but is feminism being hijacked by Israel's political left-wing? University of Haifa Professor Morin Hayo-Hemo suggests that left-leaning academics and politicians are monopolizing gender issues, and spurning women with dissenting political opinions. And, Hebrew University student Nitzan Senior joins Daniel and Daniela in-studio to discuss a conference aimed at empowering women of varying political views.

Plus, James Carver, a Member of the European Parliament for the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) addresses his party's support for Israel in an ever-hostile European political environment.
