Description

Allison, Noah, and host of The Tel Aviv Review, Gilad Halpern, discuss three topics of incomparable importance, and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week.
Breaking the Left?
We discuss the furor over Breaking the Silence, a watchdog NGO that publishes reports of IDF misconduct. Why do they inspire such rage in so many people?
Dying to be in Israel
We discuss a stunning new report that reveals shocking figures about how often immigrants to Israel - especially from the Ethiopian and Russian communities - kill themselves. What drives them to the brink?
“You want reality, B*tches?!?”
We discuss a brilliant, charismatic, angry, radical feminist Mizrahi activist on the “Big Brother” reality show. Who’s co-opting whom?
