  1. What are your favorite(s)? I am watching it right now in Tel Aviv with friends. There are representatives here from couple of European countries in the crowd.
  2. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿงก Glad to hear Yes I feel much like you. Netanyahu and this government must be replaced.
  3. @Lila9 How are you? what you wrote above to Schahin was serious or half-joke? I didn't understand. Hope you are ok!
  4. @Raze This isn't what Bennett said. This is Ihab's interpretation.
  5. They don't ask for permission from the government. Channel 13 is between center to left-wing and anti Netanyahu.
  6. @Raze This was reported by the Israeli investigative TV program The Source, by Raviv Drucker on Channel 13. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raviv_Drucker

  8. @Raze Whenever I see a motorcycle I feel they are just crazy and risking their lives. This should be illegal except for Ambulances.
  9. @Majed Closeness isn't created in a vacuum and can also be caused by fear. People tend to become anti to any group they are unfamiliar with. Overall I don't believe that some religions are consistently closed or open but that it depends on the era and the subgroup. If you meet an ultra orthodox group they will be, on average, less open to hear your views.
  10. Our government? Disastrous. But that is not the aim of this thread, which is to show Israel broadly, fairly and unfiltered.
  11. @Husseinisdoingfine Its unfortunate that certain people build their careers as influencers on demonization and sensationalism rather than on true learning of the things they are talking about.
  12. @Lila9 You mean seriously? By the way, I was just near Jaffa port with a friend. This place is very beautiful I wasn't familiar with it much before.
  13. Israel news ๐ŸŒปโ˜€๏ธ May 1 The tweets are becoming more and more about the upcoming elections, expected in early autumn.
  14. You canโ€™t see people clearly when you reduce them to labels.
  15. Maybe in the year 2200 the solution will come ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  16. Israel news ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿ—ž April 29th You can follow Bennett here: https://x.com/naftalibennett And from there, to follow Twitter's suggestions for more. All posts in this thread are originally in Hebrew and translated using Chrome.
  17. Israel claims that these actions are driven by security concerns: Hudreds of airstrikes to prevent weapons transfers to Hezbollah and limiting Iranian and Iranian backed presence in Syria, ground operations to create a buffer zone between the new regime in Syria and Israel. Part of the strikes are in response to rocket fire and are aimed to protect the Druze
  18. My pleasure, and thank you Zehava was the leader of the left-wing party Meretz. Idan is a journalist in the Israeli newspaper "Globes". You are welcome to write here more.
  19. @Breakingthewall Not nuances but real differences. Not only about a Palestinian state, but also about democracy, the role of the courts and the high court, the dominance of religion in public life, women rights, minorities rights, Israeli Arabs rights, LGBT rights, civil marriage, veganism and more. Regarding a Palestinian state, you are right the current situation is tricky to manage and problematic, but after Oct 7, even many people who supported it became more cautious because this is not only ideological anymore but also about security and trust. The issue has become somewhat taboo and politicians are a bit more afraid, at least in the meantime, to talk about it in sharp words. I think the Two State Solution is a win win because it is both just and secure long term. Some people think like me, and some think exactly the opposite. There isnโ€™t a clear consensus, and that is part of the polarization.
  20. Lets say the word โ€œpedophileโ€ didnโ€™t exist and instead we described it as: โ€œa person who has sexual urges toward children that they did not choose to have and do not want.โ€ Would it be easier then to separate between the person and the condition, and to feel empathy for the person without justifying harmful actions and while keeping children safe and protected? A person like this can be also quite young and confused. They can look good or bad, be a man or a woman, and appear ordinary on the outside. Maybe part of the problem is the emotional baggage this long-established word has accumulated, which makes it harder to see things clearly enough to not demonize the person.
  21. @Breakingthewall Its indeed difficult to make tangible moves on this issue right now. I am under the impression that October 7 has frozen it for a while. Regarding polarization you can actually get a sense of it from this thread ๐Ÿ™‚ It is hard to fully define it in words, but at its core there are different groups here that view almost every major issue in very different ways, in terms of values, identity, and how people interpret reality.
  22. Eurofalsh in Tel Aviv every Sunday. Eurovision lip sync performances with a crazy talented band. Quite magical. I barely miss a night since I started going. From last night.
