In this episode of the Middle East Forum Podcast, guest host Michael Rubin speaks with Joel Finkelstein, co-founder and director of the Network Contagion Research Institute, about how foreign adversaries exploit social media, antisemitism, and political unrest to manipulate Americans. Drawing on NCRI's investigations, Finkelstein explains how networks linked to China, Iran, Cuba, and Venezuela fund activist organizations, coordinate disruptive protests, influence online narratives, and use social media platforms to amplify division and undermine public trust.
