Allison Kaplan Sommer, Linda Gradstein and Noah Efron discuss two topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week.
Back to the Basics of Bouncing Bibi?
Do you oust the man who is leading you in war?
“Under Renovation”
Does Israel have any Left left at all?
Watching the War in Cinematic 4K
For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion: The IDF, the government, and the public broadcast corporation Kan are making polished high-def videos about the war.

All that and a heartfelt tribute to a heroin dealer and Eviatar Banai’s covers of classic songs for these days of violence and grief.
Songs
Eviatar Banai, from his remarkable new record of classic songs performed in the spirit of the times, Ogen Ba-Mayim:
- Dimyon Hofshi
- Shir
- Shir Lelo Shem
You guys are too phoney baloney faux intellectual, leftist and foul-mouthed. No wonder that the war is going as it is. You are, in your witless way, endangering my grandchildren and great grandchildren who foolishly believe that israel is a wonderful place for Jews. It ain’t.
