12 000 children are not Hamas. Even the media I Israel do not see this???

Alison Kaplan Sommer is great. I don’t always agree with the politics here—but I nonetheless find the perspective fulfilling to listen to because I learn about this sector of the Israeli electorate and Israeli society generally. It is a pleasure to listen to and I learn a lot. All the best to...Read full review »

Though the topics and commentary is excellent, the producers should try to improve the sound quality which ranges from mediocre to very poor. (you need the sound engineer from “The Promised Podcast”)

Barely audible. Why bother. And Amos Harel cheerleading not worthwhile. Nothing about catastrophic failure of intelligence and utter lack of IDF planning for such attack? We get it from anti Zionist NY times but not Ha Aretz? Ronan Bergman is crushing these guys. This wasn’t the minor leagues....Read full review »

I sought a thoughtful Israeli perspective at the beginning of the war and found it here. But in the midst of an unprecedented killing of civilians the coverage is dancing around a terrible fact: there is a genocide underway and no Israeli press is reporting on it.

I started listening to Haaretz to get an insight into what is being discussed inside Israel but the narcissism of israeli media is astounding. There is some sound reporting but it is mixed with bizarre and self indulgent victimization.

Don’t bother many better podcasts out there

Always interesting and informative about life inIsrael.

I feel my stomach turning when they discuss the position of Israel on the Russia Ukraine war. Totally and disgustingly delusional hosts that their state is an occupying murderous state just like Russia. That’s not journalism, that’s hasbara

Dr. Yofi Tirosh is an eloquent spokesperson for women’s rights in Israel. She effectively advocates for left-wing liberal democratic values in Israeli society, but her statement near the end of this podcast where she claims that 50% of Israeli Jews are “xenophobic and racist and sexist”, betrays...Read full review »

Has a trippy title!

I listened as these brilliant donkeys, complained about Israel refusing to give their Iron dome technology to the Ukraine… The UKRAINE who has just joined forces with IRAN to fight Russia. THE same IRAN who has constantly said their soul desire is to wipe Israel and the Jewish people off the...Read full review »

Great window into Israel politics and society by Haaretz’s smart, articulate and well-informed writers. I like their liberal left of center standpoint but comes at cost of a perspective on Israel’s long rightward lurch.

Why is this called news, it’s almost all opinion pieces. Simon literally just asked someone he was interviewing is there any way to blame Netanyahu for what happened. Another interview stated the good news is that Netanyahu is out. He can feel how he wants about politics, but don’t pretend to be...Read full review »

So sad to hear a liberal Jewish news organization that enjoys bashing the nation of Israel for being pro-Jew. Sounds like the angry overtones of a group who wants to change something that God has already granted - a free Jewish state, run by free Jews, who don’t accept the shtetl state of mind.

If you are far left/anti Israel/blind, then this is the podcast for you. Not me however.
daveylad1892 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/05/21
Unapologetically left-wing, fabulously informative and with a great sense of humour.

Love your podcast, keeps me updated. Continue the great work! (Only one thing: is there any possibility to improve the sound quality/clarity, especially for the interviewees? It’s often hard to hear, which is such a shame..) 🙂

His accent is wonderful! But his commentary is better!

Is not a sane reason to advocate for needing a women’s political party. Your obsessive need to value certain ppl over others is vile.

As a liberal American non-Jew I am happy to find a sane voice for Israel. Bibi and Trump will eventually leave office. I hope that our beloved countries will survive their insanity.

Great coverage and with a great sense of humour

You are doing an amazing job, but why not adding another topic rather than focusing each episode only on one thing?

Best podcast for translating Israeli politics culture and history to American's generally and to American jews in particular. Simon Spungin and his guests are great. As is Editor Aluf Ben.Read full review »
