Allison, Noah, and superstar guest Ilene Prusher discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week.

Moshe Yaalon
And now, right-wing Israeli democrats?

We discuss whether a new species is emerging in Israeli politics – right-wingers terrified by Netanyahu into embracing liberal democratic politics.

 

Donald Trump
Donald Trump & the Jewish Question

Will Trump rend asunder once and for all right wing Jews from left? Or will he perhaps become a uniting force for Jews who may reject him en masse, and with him, reject Adelsonism as well?

 

palestine museum construction
Exhibiting confusion

Is an Israeli national museum possible or even desirable in 2016, or do we need a thousand museums for the thousand different stories we tell about ourselves? Is collective memory and collective identity just soooo twentieth century?

 

All songs by Dorin Yanni & The Band (in honor of their knockout show at the Jacob’s Ladder Festival this past weekend):

Whistle
Wheels
Singing With The Rain
I Won’t Go Home
