Jonny Gould’s Jewish State stays in Israel heading for the Knesset in Jerusalem and a couple of nights out in Tel Aviv, fresh from an eye opening visit to the Israel Gaza border (scroll back one episode for that atmospheric episode).

Now let’s talk to politicians and an Iranian expert for a snapshot on regional and domestic issues.

The white heat of judicial reform has seemingly pushed the general public’s concerns about the Palestinians into the shadows.

Her parents arrived from Soviet Lithuania with nothing. Raised in a Russian speaking home, the Soviets even took her mum’s wedding ring off her.

Real stories from real people. Lived-in and brought your ears.
