Allison, Don and Noah discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week.
Labor’s Battle Royal

We mull over a poll finding that almost three quarters of Palestinian Israelis do not want Jews living in their neighborhoods, and more than two-thirds of Israeli Jews do not want Palestinians living in their neighborhoods. What’s this say about the possibility and wisdom of greater integration?
IDF = In a Dither about Feminism?
We ponder the IDF’s lamentable decision to cancel a workshop on feminist theory for top ranking female officers, on the grounds that feminism is political and divisive.
