(23) Israeli Elections: A Political Marriage, a Political Divorce, Netanyahu's Mysterious 7/8 Success, and New Year's Eve Tears in the Knesset
Listen now
Description
The Israeli political landscape changes almost daily, and David Ze'ev tries to make some sense of everything that's happened before the next political earthquake shakes things up once again. In this episode, David discusses the Bennett-Shaked union, the Gabbay-Livni breakup, and U.S. Secretary of State Pompeo's promises to Netanyahu, which are apparently too secret to tell anyone. David concludes with two of his patented Israel stories, including a tale of Chareidi-secular brotherhood on New Year's Eve.
