The "Citizens Disunited" Edition
from The Promised Podcast
Allison, Noah and Times of Israel Ops & Blogs Editor Miriam Herschlag discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week. The Odeum and the Odium: Israel's National Theater Live in the Settlements! We discuss the controversy over Israel's national theater company, Habima, performing in the most settlement-y of all the settlements, Kiryat Arba. Citizens Disunited: Reflections on the Rejection of Election Collections We reflect on a new law regulating how much Israeli NGOs can spend on election campaigns, like the failed, big "dump Netanyahu" campaign of the last election. Gimme that ol' time consumption! We ask whether the rest of us have something to learn from the ways that stuff is advertised to the ultra-orthodox in Israel, which lack the employment of sex, longing and insecurity to make the sale. All songs by Ha-Peel ha-Kachol (The Blue Elephant): 24/7 Ha-Kol Yehiyeh Ugiot Tiyul
