About this episode
Allison, Don & Noah discuss: Rubi Rivlin: A man of contradictions What to make of Israel’s newly elected President, Rubi Rivlin, a mensch (good guy) who also opposes a two-state solution? Oy, the dissonance! A pro-Palestinian settler leader? The startling NY Times op-ed by a settler leader who insists that Israel must hatch a “bold plan to improve every aspect of day-to-day life for Palestinians”: What gives? Is this the end of prisoner swaps? A cabinet decision to prohibit future pardons of murderers, ruling out Gilad Shalit-style prisoner exchanges. Music: All songs by Assaf Amdursky & Karni Postel, from their lovely new live album: Rabim HaYamim Ma'ayan Mashehu SheAni Lo Yachol Rakevet LaTsafon
