In These Times with Rabbi Ammi Hirsch: Walter Russell Mead

Our world is changing rapidly. Sometimes you get the sense that no one really understands or is able to manage the pace of change. And thus, these are unusually unstable times...
Walter Russell Mead is the Ravenel B. Curry III Distinguished Fellow in Strategy and Statesmanship at Hudson Institute, the Global View Columnist at The Wall Street Journal, and the Alexander Hamilton Professor of Strategy and Statecraft with the Hamilton Center for Classical and Civic Education at the University of Florida.
He is also the author of five books. His latest, “The Arc of a Covenant: The United States, Israel, and the Fate of the Jewish People” is, according to The New York Times, “less a history of U.S.-Israel policy than a sweeping and masterfully told history of U.S. foreign policy in general.”
I asked Prof. Mead to join me and help us understand America's relationship with Jews and the Jewish state, and how that manifests through its foreign policy.
I hope you'll tune in hear this insightful conversation wherever you get your podcasts.
