    Thank you
    Excellent podcast. The critiques of the “as a Jew” folks on the far left have been particularly cathartic.
  • ALZohar
    Important
    So much dense but important information. But almost impossible to listen to. The speaker mumbles his words and has a weird cadence at the end of sentences. Should get a professional reader or write a newsletter instead.

    Don’t read the news story you just wrote.
    Don’t read the news story you just wrote. Nothing is more boring than listening to an author read their own story. Maybe what you wrote was phrased perfectly. I could still read the story quicker and with more interest.

    Essential interviews
    Jonathan Tobin is unquestionably the best journalist writing the connections between the governments of Israel and the US. Very highly recommended.
  • kvell55

    Important and informative.
  • Driver in need
    Sad
    To glorify the hate and corruption of the current Israeli government is sad and consistent with a zealot mentality that repeats the tragic mistakes from two thousand years ago. Please return to critical thinking.

    Articulate deconstruction of the antisemitism and anti-West poison of the intersectional green-red alliance of the left. Excellent.
