Our mission is to support public awareness of national security, economic security, and moral leadership

OUR MISSION

Since 1958, the American Security Council Foundation's (ASCF) mission has been to protect American freedoms and values by promoting public awareness of national security, economic security, and moral leadership through a policy of "Peace through Strength."

Educating our children on America's Founders and Founding documents is a matter of national security. Our American History Live program is a unique, interactive, real-time program for our future generation (K-12). It promotes civic participation and an appreciation of our nation's founding.

ASCF is an educational non-partisan, non-profit, 501 (c)(3) organization. We rely on fundraisers, sponsorships, grants, and donations to keep our programs running.

PTS host Joy Votrobek discusses the latest developments in Iran with Sr. Analyst Laurence Sanford. They discuss Iranian updates after the death of the Hamas leader in Tehran and the fact that Israel has the capability and accuracy to strike the Iranian capital. China's malign influence and why Israel's right to retaliate should not be up for debate. They also discuss the future of Gaza and the West Bank without Hamas.

PTS podcast host Joy Votrobek speaks to ASCF Sr. Analyst Laurence Sanford about Iran and its proxies' disdain for Western civilization. While Israel may enter trade agreements with Arab countries, they know Islam is no friend. Iran has openly called for the destruction of Israel, and Hamas has indoctrinated Gazans. They discuss Iran's nuclear capability and whether they would actually use it on Israel. Finally, they discuss using grayzone warfare and exploiting Iran's internal unrest.
