About this episode
Allison Kaplan Sommer and Noah Efron talk about (1) How the left and right disagree about whether Israel ought to end the fighting in Gaza "now" and "forever", and what these disagreements say about each political position and (2) Plans to disrupt the wedding of Avner Netanyahu, the son of the Prime Minister, and whether or not it's o.k. to disrupt the family life of politicians one disagrees with. All this and a meditation on anti-Israel protestors, and another on when wildlife is not wild life. Plus, the infused-with-spirit music of Hovav Paller.

Are these things awful anomalies or just the new (awful) normal?
