We discuss how the IDF investigates its own crimes; the new leftie love of the word “fascist”; and what’s happening to affordable housing.

We discuss a new species that might be emerging in Israeli politics; Donald Trump and the Jewish question; and whether an Israeli national museum is possible or even desirable.

We discuss the make-up of PM Netanyahu’s new coalition; whether Birthright breeds BDSers; and the politics of Israeli beauty ideals.

We discuss a new bill to limit Israeli Prime Ministers to two terms; whether “economic peace” is growing between Palestinians and Israelis; and just how unified we Israelis really are.

We discuss what lessons we Israelis should draw from the Holocaust; why Israeli lawmakers are proposing so many bills; and why littering has become a hot topic.

We discuss the rally in support of Sgt. Elor Azaria; why leaders on the left sound more right-wing every day; and the former ultra-Orthodox who are suing the state.

In this Passover potpourri, we update the old story in the Midrash about the four sons, and serve you up some of our favorite “Vatacountry!” segments.

We discuss whether Bibi really is a pure opportunist; a plan to build a school for refugees in South Tel Aviv; and the surprising internet habits of Israeli Modern Orthodox Jews.

We discuss a spate of Supreme Court decisions that leave right-wing politicians sputtering about judicial overreach, the decline of venerable anti-occupation activist group Peace Now, and one high school’s decision to quit making trips to concentration camps in Poland.

We discuss the the ‘hero’ combat medic who shoots a motionless injured Palestinian terrorist in the head, a new law that limits the salaries of bank presidents to just 44 times minimum wage; and Israeli Gen Y-ers (aged 21 to 34).
