How far is J Street from my street?

We discuss J Street’s upbeat campaign in support of the Iran deal, which leaves no room for the worry and ambivalence that most Israelis feel. Is a chasm spreading between the Israeli left and the American Pro-Israeli left?

The new face of Israel’s opposition?

MK and Yesh Atid party head Yair Lapid is attempting to parlay PM Netanyahu’s failure to prevent the Iran deal into his own political asset. Is this the beginning of a campaign that will lead him to the Prime Minister’s residence?

 

Gilad Shalit
The wages of compassion

Security experts have found that six Israelis have been killed by men released as part of the deal that brought Gilad Shalit back to his family three years ago. Should this grim calculus affect future Israeli hostage negotiations?

 

Songs from the new EP “Esek Mishpahti” (“Family Business”) that just dropped this week, by pioneering Israeli M.C. Sagol 59 (Khen Rotem) and young rapper & producer Shiroto (Tomy Rotem). In addition to the musical simpatico of the two hip hop stars, they are also father & son!
