    Hear the Extra-Special, Special Extra Segment

    —(Un)settling—

    Why do Israeli Jews who think it might be a good idea to set up Jewish towns in Gaza, think what they think?

    —Hostage (Dis)agreement—

    —Safe, Save for the Bombs and Bullets—

    For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion: Why do most Israelis think the safest place in the world for Jews is Israel when, statistically, that’s not even close to being true?

    Plus, a remembrance of Corinne Allal, may her memory be for a blessing.
