In what ways is today’s Israel a product of Benjamin Netanyahu, and in what ways is he a product of the Israel? Why and how can Netanyahu serve as “a synecdoche” for Israel itself? And what is the price we all pay for the success he’s had molding the country, with such surprising success, into his own image?

Sparks fly when Haaretz correspondent Anshel Pfeffer joins the Promised Podcast crew to discuss his new book, Bibi: The Turbulent Life and Times of Benjamin Netanyahu.

This is a segment from The “What About Natalie?” Edition.
