We discuss the implications of Israeli right-wing voices joining anti-corruption protests, another viral video by teenaged Palestinian activist Ahed Tamimi, and whether we should be crowdsourcing judgment when there seems to be no other way to get justice at all.

We consider how to respond to pharma giant Teva’s announcement of massive layoffs, whether Israel’s opposition needs to be less civil towards political opponents, and if there is something Israeli about the company WeWork’s communal work space concept.

We discuss the brouhaha over an ultra-Orthodox musician, the Israeli Left’s patriotism problem, and why Hanukkah has lost its status as one of the most important Zionist holidays.

We’re live in Boston to ask how to mend the rift between Israel and American Jews, what fears and hopes are being sparked by Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, and whether demonstrations have become nothing more than empty rituals.

We discuss the strange case of the IDF officer and spokesperson for human rights NGO Breaking the Silence demanding to be prosecuted, a proposed amendment to the elections advertising law that will do away with government sponsored free TV spots during election campaigns, and how Airbnb is driving up rent in Tel Aviv and driving out folks who desperately want to live there.

We discuss Netanyahu’s decision to deport asylum seekers by paying them to relocate in Rwanda (with the support of the Labor Party), Labor Party head Avi Gabbay’s statement that Israel’s “left forgot what it means to be Jews” and the red-hot rage it sparked, and Tel Aviv’s decision to shut down all its zoos and petting zoos.

We discuss the contrary-to-popular-opinion results of a new poll, whether or not the Israeli-American Council is just another plot by Sheldon Adelson, and whether or not women in Israel are subject to our own special sorts of sexual violence.

We discuss the ethics of using militants’ bodies as “bargaining chips”, the perennial debate over whether descendants of dispossessed Palestinians should be allowed to return to their ancestor’s holdings, and the moral quandary of traffic app Waze.

We discuss the centennial of the Balfour Declaration which was controversial then and remains so today, the assertion of some leaders of Meretz that the party is no longer Zionist, and a Supreme Court ruling allowing stores to stay open on the Sabbath.

We discuss President Reuven Rivlin’s warning that Israeli democracy may be imperiled, presumptive leader of the left Avi Gabbay’s shift to the right, a feminist Member of Knesset who suggested that kids might be better off if there were no marriages or nuclear families.
