In the fallout of Israel’s election, Donniel Hartman, Yossi Klein Halevi, and Elana Stein Hain navigate the strangeness of this moment for many in the liberal Jewish camp who are experiencing it as a moment of mourning. In this episode they ask: How do Jews who oppose the values of the coming governing Israeli coalition make themselves heard right now? Can Israel learn from Americans’ experience under Trump? Is it possible to build bridges with extremists, and is it possible to separate peoples’ ideologies from the candidates they support?
