He travels from Gilgal to Bethel to Jericho to the Jordan River, with Elisha refusing to leave his side.Crossing the Jordan: Elijah strikes the Jordan River with his cloak, and the waters part so they can walk across on dry ground.Elisha's Request: Elijah asks what he can do for Elisha before he is taken away. Elisha requests a double portion of Elijah's spirit. Elijah replies it's a hard thing, but if Elisha sees him taken, it will be granted.Elijah Taken Up: Suddenly, a chariot of fire with horses of fire appears, and Elijah is taken up into heaven in a whirlwind. Elisha cries out and tears his clothes.Elisha's Power: Elisha takes Elijah's cloak, strikes the Jordan, and the water parts again—showing he has inherited Elijah's spirit. The prophets watching declare that Elijah's spirit rests on Elisha.Bald Mockers Punished: Later, some boys mock Elisha, calling him “baldy.” Elisha curses them in the name of the Lord, and two bears come out of the woods and maul forty-two of them.Your words were found and I ate them

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military correspondent Emanuel Fabian and political correspondent Sam Sokol join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Two Israeli officials said yesterday that Jerusalem is studying the proposal for a phased hostage-ceasefire deal that Hamas on Sunday said it had agreed to. This comes as Defense Minister Israel Katz approved the army’s plans for the takeover of Gaza City yesterday. The plans are set to be presented to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu tomorrow, but in the meantime, we hear about the call-up of some 60,000 Israeli reservists and other aspects of Operation Gideon’s Chariots, B. A group of settler activists, including young children, crossed the border into Syria on Monday in an attempt to establish a new settlement in land currently held by the Israel Defense Forces. The military said troops were dispatched to the scene, across from the border town of Alonei Habashan, after several civilian vehicles were seen crossing into Syria. Fabian fills us in. Last night, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government voted to approve a NIS 31 billion ($9 billion) increase to the 2025 state budget — NIS 1.6 billion ($473 million) of which will go toward humanitarian aid for Gaza. The money earmarked for humanitarian aid has angered some members of Netanyahu’s cabinet as well as opposition figures like Yisrael Beytenu chairman Avigdor Liberman. Will the Knesset ratify these additions? Ultra-Orthodox leaders have called for an international day of prayer and fasting on Thursday in response to recent government efforts to conscript ultra-Orthodox yeshiva students and arrest those who ignore government orders to enlist. Sokol gives background to the "war" the Haredim have declared on the draft issue and previews what we should expect to see tomorrow. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

The eighties are a treasure trove of movie nostalgia, and 1981 was no exception. This year gifted us classic comedies like ‘Time Bandits' and ‘Stripes', as well as acclaimed dramas like ‘On Golden Pond' and ‘Chariots of Fire'. Let's not forget the fun of the ‘Great Muppet Caper' and the much-anticipated return of smell-o-vision. There are simply too many beloved films from 1981 to mention them all. #movies #1981 #TimeBandits #Stripes #OnGoldenPond #ChariotsofFire #GreatMuppetCaper #smell-o-vision See show notes: https://inlet.fm/weird-history/episodes/68a218f36137f148fc5c69a4 Learn more about your ad choices.

Are they nonterrestrial intelligences who are intimately linked to humanity? Instead of wrestling with theories and speculation, Nigel Watson speaks directly with ‘ordinary' people in the United Kingdom who have reported seeing UFOs and a wide range of startling associated phenomena, that in the past were considered by UFO investigators as too farfetched or ‘crazy.'His decadeslong research shows how UFO encounters can often escalate from simple sightings of lights in the sky to sightings of alien entities, robots, men in black, and angelic beings. UFO witnesses and experiencers can also be plagued by a lifechanging poltergeist or other ghostly experiences, telepathic messages, alien communications, strange coincidences, visions of the future, and abductions. Many of the stories might seem like science fiction or the very stuff of nightmares, yet they are told by people of different age groups, social backgrounds, and locations.  Whatever the answer, if there is any one answer, this is a fascinating look at how UFO experiences have evolved in the UK and reflect similar worldwide changes in our relationship with the unknown.BioNigel Watson has researched and investigated historical and contemporary reports of UFO sightings.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. According to leaked reports, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will likely declare a new war goal of conquering the entire Gaza Strip. Following the three-month-long Gideon's Chariots operation, Israel currently has operational control of 75 percent of the Strip. Fabian delves into the operation and gives a picture of whether it met its goals of conquering Gaza and retaining the territory; moving the Palestinian civilian population toward the south of the Strip; targeting Hamas; and preventing the terror group from taking control of humanitarian aid supplies. We discuss the stepped-up humanitarian aid efforts and Fabian offers insight into what happens once it reaches the Strip, citing a new UN report that states that almost nine out of every 10 UN trucks that entered Gaza with humanitarian aid over the last several months were looted — either by hungry Gazans or by armed groups. We get updates on how much aid is still standing at the Kerem Shalom crossing and how effective airdrops are. Finally, we learn about the IDF’s new Haredi brigade, known as the Hasmonean Brigade. After completing seven months of basic and advanced training, the first company of troops from the Hasmonean Brigade received their navy berets today. What is this new ultra-Orthodox company and how could it impact the 80,000 Haredi youth who are eligible for conscription? Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Five IDF divisions, made up of tens of thousands of troops, continue to operate across Gaza. Dozens of airstrikes were carried out in the past days, but one in particular has captured international attention: a strike near a Gaza water distribution point that reportedly killed several children. The IDF said Sunday that it was an accident and attributed it to a “technical malfunction.” Fabian reports on the accidental strike and compares the IDF's quick accountability of it to reports of mass deaths from humanitarian aid distribution sites. A proposed plan to establish a “humanitarian city” in southern Gaza’s Rafah continues to receive backlash. According to the plan, at least 600,000 Palestinians would be allowed into a newly rebuilt area of the city after being cleared that they are not Hamas. Some critics -- including former prime minister Ehud Olmert -- allege that it resembles the Nazi concentration camps built during World War II. Fabian talks about the plan, puts it in to the greater context of the entire Gideon's Chariots operation and explains the reported criticism from within the IDF itself. Israeli troops found more than three tons of weapons while raiding military facilities inside Syria, including anti-tank mines, explosive devices, and rockets. The sites had been maintained by the deposed Bashar al-Assad regime. We hear about the raid and the scale of the troops' finds. Israel’s most advanced communications satellite, dubbed Dror-1, was successfully launched into space from Cape Canaveral in the United States on Sunday aboard a Falcon 9 two-stage rocket, manufactured by Elon Musk’s SpaceX. Fabian was inside the Israeli control room and reports back. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Best-selling author Erich von Däniken and UFO researcher and biblical scholar David Halperin debate the theory of ancient astronauts, that advanced beings from other planets visited Earth in ancient times. David also continues with discussions about his very different views of UFO reality, and the causes behind related events. von Däniken is arguably the most widely read and most-copied nonfiction author in the world. He published his first (and best-known) book, Chariots of the Gods, in 1968. In the 1960s, David Halperin was a teen-age UFOlogist. He grew up to become a professor of religious studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, with special expertise in religious traditions of heavenly ascent and otherworldly journeys. He is the author of five books and numerous articles on Jewish mysticism and messianism, and a novel, 'Journal of a UFO Investigator."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-paracast-the-gold-standard-of-paranormal-radio--6203433/support.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Four more soldiers were declared dead on Friday morning after a booby trapped building exploded in the southern Gaza Strip. The slain soldiers were Sgt. First Class Tom Rotstein, Staff Sgt. Uri Yhonatan Cohen, Sgt. Maj. (res.) Chen Gross and Staff Sgt. Yoav Raver. Fabian weighs in on the challenges facing troops on the ground as Operation Gideon's Chariots continues. The leader of a small Gaza terror group responsible for the October 7, 2023, abductions and eventual murders of several hostages -- including Shiri Bibas and her two young sons, Ariel and Kfir -- was killed in an Israeli strike in Gaza City on Saturday, the military said. Another senior member was killed in a separate strike in the city. Fabian explains what the Mujahideen Brigades group is and other hostages who were murdered by it. The body of slain hostage Nattapong Pinta, who Hamas-led terrorists abducted on October 7, 2023, was recovered in a joint Israel Defense Forces and Shin Bet operation in the southern Gaza Strip, officials announced Saturday morning. This follows the recovery of two additional hostage bodies, Gadi Haggai and Judih Weinstein from the Khan Younis region. We learn how their whereabouts were determined. The Israeli Navy is expected to block a high-profile activist mission sailing to Gaza to challenge Israel’s blockade, should the boat near Israel’s territorial waters in the coming days. Among the 12 activists on the ship are Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, Brazilian activist Thiago Avila, Irish “Game of Thrones” actor Liam Cunningham, and Rima Hassan, a French-Palestinian European Parliament member. With the world's gaze on Israel, Fabian describes how the Navy may block the boat from reaching the Gaza shore. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

When consumers can get AI-generated designs completely customized to their needs, what does this mean for the future of brands and the customer experience? I have two guests on my show today: one is the founder of one of the world's most iconic shoe brands, and the other is the co-creator of the first AI-designed commercial shoe. Today we're going to talk about what it takes to innovate and grow a brand and how things are both similar—and different since Reebok launched its brand in 1960, and now Syntilay brings a whole new era of AI-based design to the market. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Joe Foster, the founder of Reebok and Ben Weiss, the CEO of Syntilay.

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 28 mai 2025.Avec cette semaine :Jean-Louis Bourlanges, essayiste.Béatrice Giblin, directrice de la revue Hérodote et fondatrice de l'Institut Français de Géopolitique.Marc-Olivier Padis, directeur des études de la fondation Terra Nova.Lucile Schmid, vice-présidente de La Fabrique écologique et membre du comité de rédaction de la revue Esprit.LE RECUL DES ACCORDS DE PARISAprès avoir clamé « Make our planet great again (« Rendez sa grandeur à la planète »), et promis que son second quinquennat « sera écologique ou ne sera pas », Emmanuel Macron s'est montré de moins en moins ambitieux au fil de ses deux mandats. Son gouvernement n'a pas tenu sa promesse de sortie du glyphosate en trois ans, a édulcoré la loi zéro artificialisation nette et délivre encore des permis d'hydrocarbures. En 2019, sur recours du collectif d'associations « L'affaire du siècle », la responsabilité de l'État a été engagée par le juge administratif pour n'avoir pas respecté sa propre trajectoire de réduction des émissions de gaz à effet de serre.Déjà marginalisée depuis l'irruption de la guerre en Ukraine ou à Gaza, la cause climatique se retrouve foulée aux pieds dans le nouveau chaos géopolitique créé par l'administration Trump. En France, depuis le début de l'année, les reculs se multiplient, dans une ambiance d'attaques répétées de la droite et de l'extrême droite contre les opérateurs de l'État comme l'Office français de la biodiversité ou l'Agence de la transition écologique. Adopté au Sénat en janvier, un texte vise la réautorisation par dérogation de certains insecticides néonicotinoïdes et restreint l'indépendance de l'Agence nationale de sécurité sanitaire de l'alimentation, de l'environnement et du travail (Anses), des reculs jugés considérables par les défenseurs de l'environnement.Or, il y a dix ans, dans le cadre des accords de Paris de 2015, la France s'est engagée à atteindre la neutralité carbone en 2050 et, pour y parvenir, s'est dotée d'une feuille de route de réduction des émissions par secteur, la Stratégie nationale bas carbone, dont la troisième version doit être officiellement publiée dans les prochains mois. L'objectif : réduire nos émissions brutes de 50 % entre 1990 et 2030, en accord avec l'objectif européen. Alors que la France doit réduire ses émissions de 4,7 % par an en moyenne entre 2022 et 2030, ces dernières n'ont diminué que de 1,8 % en 2024 par rapport à 2023 selon lebaromètre Citepa chargé de l'inventaire des émissions de la France. Le compte n'y est donc pas.Selon une enquête de 2022 de l'Organisation pour la coopération et le développement économiques (OCDE), environ 43 % des Français ont une opinion sur le climat qui s'écarte significativement du consensus scientifique. Une proportion qui excède – parfois de plus de 20 points – ce qui est observé dans la douzaine des autres pays à hauts revenus inclus dans l'étude de l'OCDE.LA POLITIQUE DE NETANYAHOU ET L'ISOLEMENT D'ISRAËLDurant la tournée de Donald Trump dans le Golfe mi-mai, le premier ministre israélien a paru isolé et pris de court par les décisions du président américain de lancer des pourparlers avec l'Iran sur le nucléaire, de négocier directement avec le Hamas la libération d'otages israélo-américains, de conclure un cessez-le-feu avec les Houthis yéménites et de lever les sanctions américaines sur la Syrie.Le 19 mai, Benyamin Nétanyahou a annoncé qu'Israël allait prendre « le contrôle de tout le territoire » de la bande de Gaza en lançant l'opération Chariots de Gédéon. L'armée israélienne a depuis intensifié ses opérations dans l'enclave palestinienne, faisant des centaines de morts, dont une majorité de civils. Le plan du gouvernement israélien qui suppose de raser ce qui reste de Gaza, de parquer une population affamée dans une petite portion de l'enclave et de la soumettre à un système militarisé de distribution d'aide humanitaire a suscité une indignation générale de la communauté internationale y compris de la part de capitales occidentales proches d'Israël. Quelque 39 pays ont déposé un recours devant la Cour Internationale de Justice de La Haye. Le président français, et les Premiers ministres britannique et canadien ont prévenu qu'ils ne resteraient « pas les bras croisés » devant les « actions scandaleuses » du gouvernement israélien. 22 pays ont aussi exigé d'Israël une « reprise complète de l'aide à la bande de Gaza, immédiatement », demandant qu'elle soit organisée par les Nations unies et les ONG. Sous la pression, après deux mois et demi de blocus humanitaire, Benyamin Netanyahou a autorisé quelques camions transportant des médicaments et de la nourriture pour enfants à pénétrer dans la bande de Gaza. Un geste minimum, loin de répondre aux besoins. Le 20 mai, la Commission européenne a déclaré qu'elle allait entamer un processus de révision de l'accord d'association de l'Union européenne avec Israël, dont l'article 2 évoque le respect des droits humains qui pourrait aboutir à la suspension des relations commerciales favorables à Tel-Aviv. La cheffe de la diplomatie européenne, Kaja Kallas a constaté qu'« il existe une forte majorité en faveur du réexamen de l'article 2 de notre accord d'association avec Israël. Nous allons donc nous lancer dans cet exercice ». La mort de deux employés de l'ambassade d'Israël aux États-Unis, tués devant le musée juif de Washington, a renforcé un sentiment d'isolement en Israël et la crainte de devenir un Etat paria. Le 23 mai, le Conseil de l'Europe a estimé que les actes dans la bande de Gaza « vont dans le sens d'un nettoyage ethnique et d'un génocide ». Lundi, le chancelier allemand Friedrich Merz a menacé le gouvernement Netanyahou de ne plus continuer à le soutenir en raison de l'intensification de l'offensive de l'armée israélienne à Gaza. « On ne peut plus le justifier par une lutte contre le terrorisme du Hamas », a déclaré le dirigeant allemand, fustigeant avec une rare fermeté les actions d'Israël, dont Berlin est l'un des plus fidèles alliés avec les États-Unis.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

Gene and cohost Tim Swartz feature Gary D. Rhodes. He is a renowned film historian and author with a passion for uncovering the forgotten stories of horror cinema. He's a world expert on Bela Lugosi and Dracula, and will reveal the secrets of the tragic life story of this world-famous horror film legend. He will also talk about his book, "Weirdumentary: Ancient Aliens, Fallacious Prophecies, and Mysterious Monsters From 1970s Documentaries." The book unlocks the secrets of the strangest cinematic phenomenon of the 1970s. It's the ultimate guide to the bizarre, the unexplained, and the wildly entertaining films and television programs that blurred the line between fact and fantasy. "Weirdumentary" examines dozens of movies and TV series, sold to the unsuspecting public as documentaries, beginning with "Chariots of the Gods" (1970) and ending with "The Man Who Saw Tomorrow" (1981). Leonard Nimoy's "In Search Of" makes an appearance, and so does Orson Wells in his late-career role of sinister yet skeptical narrator. Although listeners to The Paracast know about their factual basis, many of these shows and movies featured spurious experts, questionable evidence, and low-budget dramatization. Acclaimed comic book artist, writer, and historian Stephen R. Bissette, best known for his groundbreaking work on DC Comics' "Swamp Thing" alongside Alan Moore, provides the foreword.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-paracast-the-gold-standard-of-paranormal-radio--6203433/support.

In this episode of Hold Your Fire!, Richard is joined by Crisis Group's experts Mairav Zonszein, Amjad Iraqi, Max Rodenbeck and Rob Blecher to discuss Israel's new ground offensive in Gaza and its contentious efforts to take over control of aid distribution amid a deepening humanitarian crisis. Richard first speaks to Mairav, Amjad and Max about “Operation Gideon's Chariots”, Israel's military campaign that appears aimed at fragmenting Gaza territorially while linking military operations to the management of humanitarian aid. They examine how the war is affecting Israel's domestic politics and whether public sentiment is shifting. They also discuss how the war has affected Israel's international standing, with European leaders voicing growing criticism of Israel's conduct. Richard then turns to Rob to take a closer look at Israel's aid distribution plan and its reported aim to provide only minimal levels of food after months of blockade, despite most Palestinians in Gaza already facing severe hunger.For more, check out our recent statement “Saving Gaza from Starvation” our Analyst's Notebook entry “The Vanishing Line between Starvation and Famine in Gaza” and our Israel/Palestine page.

The images coming out of Gaza are apocalyptic, depicting the latest - and perhaps final - chapter in a genocide. Under an operation called Gideon's Chariots, the Israeli military is forcing Palestinians into tiny corners of the besieged enclave. Its next phase: another full-scale invasion aimed at taking complete control of the territory.

On Sunday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced the start of a new “extensive ground operation” in Gaza, which follows a week of airstrikes on the enclave. The campaign, called Operation Gideon's Chariots, will comprise a “broad attack that includes the displacement of most of the population of the Gaza Strip,” an IDF spokesperson said. Israel has called up tens of thousands of reservists in preparation for the offensive.

The shooter shouted “Free Palestine” during the course of his attack. The attack has sparked outrage online, with voices blaming not only the killer but also public figures and activists accused of fueling Jew hatred. As violence spreads and international pressure mounts, Israel faces growing challenges both abroad and at home. Iran has cut off talks with the U.S., raising speculation of an impending Israeli strike. Israel has withdrawn its negotiators from Qatar, and "Operation Gideon's Chariots" is underway. Meanwhile, the UK, France, and Canada have issued a joint statement threatening action if Israel continues its Gaza operations and settlement expansion.  Follow The Israel Guys on Telegram: https://t.me/theisraelguys  Follow Us On X: https://x.com/theisraelguys  Follow Us On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theisraelguys Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theisraelguys Source Links:  https://x.com/EmmanuelMacron/status/1924549427512963560 https://x.com/KassyAkiva/status/1925404780895080745 https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c7066e7z9k4o https://x.com/HilzFuld/status/1925428169328251229 https://x.com/HilzFuld/status/1925411745411092568 https://www.elysee.fr/en/emmanuel-macron/2025/05/19/joint-statement-from-the-leaders-of-the-united-kingdom-france-and-canada-on-the-situation-in-gaza-and-the-west-bank

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Two Israeli soldiers were killed in Gaza over the past two days. Fabian describes the situations that led to the deaths of Staff Sgt. Danilo Mocanu, 20, and Sgt. Yosef Yehuda Chirak, 22. Even as Israel has begun to allow humanitarian aid trucks into the Gaza Strip, the United Nations humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher warned that 14,000 babies in Gaza could die within 48 hours. Yesterday, the United Nations received permission from Israel for 93 aid trucks to enter the Gaza Strip, but questions remain over how it will get to the Gazans who need it -- and not be usurped by Hamas. Gaza’s Hamas-run civil defense agency said IDF strikes killed at least 19 people overnight, as Israel faces mounting international pressure over its military offensive. Dozens of others have been reported dead in unverifiable numbers in the past several days since the operation ramped up on Saturday. IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir warned in a video statement on Tuesday that the IDF is prepared to capture more territory in the Gaza Strip if Hamas does not agree to release the remaining hostages it is keeping in captivity. We hear what appears to be the IDF's operational strategy during Operation Gideon's Chariots. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

Israel this week launched "Operation Gideon's Chariots" targeting what remains of Hamas in Gaza. According to Prime Minister Netanyahu, this time Israel will "take control" over all of Gaza, thus preventing Hamas to pop its head back up. At the same time Israel is once again allowing humanitarian aid into Gaza to the chagrin of many who understand that all aid into Gaza, without any mechanisms of supervision, will end up in Hamas' coffers. These stories and more, on this week's Israel Uncensored, with Josh Hasten.

Send us a textIsrael has launched Operation Gideon's Chariots to seize full control of the Gaza Strip and end Hamas rule once and for all. But as the war enters a new phase, the dilemmas grow deadlier and the geopolitics more complex. Eylon Levy is joined by DPR (Daniel Rubenstein), former advisor to Israeli Prime Ministers, IDF Spokesperson's Unit reservist, and Israeli tour guide, for a razor-sharp discussion dissecting the battlefield, the information war, and Israel's strategic isolation. 

As Israel's Operation Gideon's Chariots pushes deeper into Gaza, Hamas loses control. Amir Tsarfati and Pastor Barry Stagner expose the delusion fueling the Houthi threat, global misinformation campaigns, and the growing divide between Europe's leaders and its people.

Vice President JD Vance has a trip to Israel planned for Tuesday but has reportedly canceled it in the wake of Israel's military operation in Gaza. 

The diagnosis of prostate cancer for the former president comes just days ahead of the release of a book detailing questions about his mental fitness as president. Israel's military says troops are now operating in multiple points throughout Gaza strip, in an operation dubbed Gideon's Chariots.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. A new round of negotiations for a Gaza ceasefire and hostage deal between Hamas and Israel began in Qatar on Saturday after the Israeli military launched its new expanded offensive in the Gaza Strip, dubbed “Gideon’s Chariots,” that will seek to “seize strategic areas” of the Hamas-run Strip. Fabian describes the slow rollout of the operation so far and how many more troops have entered Gaza as of Sunday morning. Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthis say they fired two ballistic missiles at Israel early Sunday morning. This comes after Israeli fighter jets carried out a wave of airstrikes in Yemen on Friday afternoon, targeting two Houthi-controlled ports in the west of the country, and threatened to kill the terror group’s leader. We discuss the growing realization that the terrorist group is undeterred by IAF strikes and whether Israel will take another tack soon. The Israel Defense Force said Saturday that it killed a Hezbollah commander in a drone strike in Lebanon. The operative, who was targeted on a road near Mazraat Jemjim — some 30 kilometers from the Israeli border — in the Tyre District, was the commander of Hezbollah’s forces in the Beaufort Castle area, the military said. Fabian updates us on who he was and what he was allegedly up to. To end the program, we discuss Israel's participation in last night's Eurovision final and Yuval Raphael's second-place finish. Israel's 2025 contestant, who survived the Nova festival massacre on October 7, 2023, won the popular vote, but was less warmly received by the jury. Fabian gives some reasons why.

Linda, Allison and Noah talk about (1) the reserve call-up and the new IDF operation – it's already got a name: Gideon's Chariots – that the government plans to launch in Gaza, and whether or not it is a good idea; and (2) The violent protests of a “Joint Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Event” in Raanana, and what we do and do not learn from them. All this and the crooked timber of humanity on the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Dachau, and a mystical Challah dough-offering ceremony in Jerusalem and a story we learned at the Bicycle Museum that is unbelievable even after three generations!
