On “Inside Israel,” I always strive to tell you the truth – even when it hurts.
In this week’s episode, we’ll talk about the emotional and physical toll that the ongoing war is taking on Israelis. While resilience has long been a defining trait, many Israelis now feel spent. With more than 375 soldiers having been killed in Lebanon and Gaza, and our hostages still not home, we’re losing our sense of hope.
Meanwhile, the political landscape offers little solace. Judicial overhaul is back on the table, and the ultra-Orthodox Haredi population continues to refuse to serve in the military, despite the IDF being 20,000 soldiers short of what’s needed to fight wars on two fronts.
And, of course, I answer your questions.
