Description

Noah Efron, Times of Israel Ops & Blogs Editor Miriam Herschlag, and Tel Aviv Review host Gilad Halpern discuss discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week. Help support the show. Learn how on Patreon. Ruvi Rivlin’s Presidential Address of Existential Distress President Reuven Rivlin made a chilling start-of-the-winter-legislative-session speech to Knesset, in which he warned that Israeli democracy itself may be imperiled. The Gift of Gabbay Avi Gabbay, the new head of the Labor Party, presumptive leader of the left, and heir not-so-apparent to Israel’s premiership, has triangulated to the right. It’s the Patriarchy, Stupid! There’s a brouhaha over a feminist Member of Knesset who suggested that kids might be better off if there were no marriages or nuclear families.
