Red Flag - with Michael Eisenberg

A week into the ceasefire in Gaza, nationalist activists march on the streets of Jerusalem in the controversial Flag Day annual parade, sparking conflict with Arab residents of the city. Yonit and Jonathan discuss that and all the latest political turmoil. And - an interview with leading investor Michael Eisenberg on why the best way to integrate ultra-orthodox Jews into Israeli society is to hand them less public money.  Plus: the rare marine animal that’s been driving Israelis wild, and a Marvel-ous act of chutzpah. -- Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unholypodcast/and X: https://x.com/2jewsonthenewsJoin our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1150578065793142 Subscribe to our blog: https://unholypodcast.substack.com/  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
