Radio National’s “Rear Vision” program featured a discussion this week about Israeli democracy, and the tensions between Israel’s Jewish and democratic characteristics.
It features NIF CEO Daniel Sokatch, Jewish academic Gil Troy, Times of Israel journalist Haviv Rettig Gur, Palestinian activist and author Ben White, and Knesset member Haneen Zoabi from the Balad party.
