The President and the Pop-Stars
Allison, Eilon, Don and Noah discuss
- The Palestinian prisoner release and whether it helps or hinders the peace process
- Education Minister Shay Piron’s decision to start teaching first-graders about the Holocaust and carry on right through high school: Should we teach Treblinka to tots?.
The gang also chats with Knesset Member Dov Khenin about what’s up in new the legislative session, and especially the so-called “Better Governance Bill” that may change the face of Israeli politics forever, if it’s passed. Plus, the insanely great music of “Ha-Hatzer ha-Ahorit,” with lyrics by legendary songwriter Yankele Rotblit.
