Ep. 96: What Would You Do? Daryl Cooper, Israel, and Rethinking World War 2
Manage episode 479948432 series 3438114
In this episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, host Jacob Winograd dives deep into the controversial conversations sparked by historian Daryl Cooper, particularly around World War II, Churchill, and the Israel-Gaza conflict. Jacob opens with a gripping monologue inspired by Cooper’s Martyr Made series that humanizes the Palestinian perspective and challenges listeners to ask, “What would you do?” From there, he explores how myths about WWII and unquestioned narratives shape modern foreign policy and collective moral frameworks.
Through a critical examination of Allied decision-making, Churchill’s role, and missed opportunities to prevent genocide, Jacob makes the case that blind allegiance to national mythology distorts both our understanding of history and our response to present conflicts. Drawing parallels between 1930s Germany and modern disenfranchisement in the West, he highlights the importance of empathy, repentance, and Christlike love — even toward our enemies — as the true path to peace and justice.
