Description

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.
What makes Bibi tick?
A new essay challenges the leftist article-of-faith that PM Benjamin Netanyahu tacks back and forth out of opportunism and naked ambition. It argues that at the base of everything he does is a bedrock of principle consisting mostly of weird-ass eschatology.
School’s out, completely
The Tel Aviv Municipality plans to turn a park in a troubled southern neighborhood of the city into a school for refugee kids. Many activists are saying, "Over our dead bodies!" - are they right?
Yids online!
A new survey of the habits of commerce and recreation of Israeli Modern Orthodox (or "National Religious") Jews finds that they use the internet a good deal more than everyone else. Are Modern Orthodox more "Modern" than Secular Israelis?
