The Philosophical Message of Sefer Yonah by Rabbi Joshua Maroof
What one prays for, tells a LOT about them. Beware. Tamar speaks with David S. Levine, author of the newly released book What Do They Pray For? Whether we're religious, agnostic, or atheist, what people pray for can reveal a great deal about their deepest values, hopes, and beliefs. So what happens when we examine the prayers of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—in their own words? What do those prayers reveal about how each faith views God, society, other religions, and the world around them? Understanding what our neighbors believe isn't just an academic exercise. If we want to protect our own values and culture, we need to understand the values and aspirations of those around us—including where there may be genuine reasons for concern about intolerance or religious domination. Know thy neighbor. And when necessary, know thy enemy. The Tamar Yonah Show 30AUG2026 - PODCAST

Does upzoning actually lead to more housing? In this episode, YIMBY Law's Sonja Trauss sits down with Yonah Freemark, a researcher at the Urban Institute, to discuss his latest research on how upzoning affects housing construction in New York City and Philadelphia. The conversation explores what makes an upzoning effective, why some zoning changes produce more housing than others, and what Yonah's earlier research on Chicago taught him about the relationship between zoning, development, and property values. Sonja and Yonah also discuss how new housing affects affordability through “moving chains,” why median rents can obscure people's actual experiences with housing costs, and why housing supply can have different effects in different types of communities. They also discuss the relationship between researchers and housing advocates, how YIMBY activism has helped create new opportunities for housing research, and why advocates need both on-the-ground experience and research to make stronger arguments for housing policy.

The European Union has given money and support to the Palestinian Authority to make facts on the ground, which go against the Oslo accords and other agreements made, but not kept. Tamar Yonah speaks to Naomi Kahn, Director of Regavim's International Division about this article below. The Regavim Movement Responds to European Union Sanctions: “European hypocrisy will not deter us. We are Israel.” “We consider it a badge of honor that the European Union has chosen to include us on the distinguished list of defenders of the Land of Israel." "For two decades, we have exposed the massive funding invested by the European Union in the establishment of a Palestinian terror state — in violation of the law and international agreements — including the funneling of millions of European taxpayers' money toward illegal construction on the national lands of the Jewish People and support for organizations that aid terrorism. To the dismay of those who seek to harm Israel and Israelis, the courts have repeatedly accepted our petitions against rampant illegal construction and land seizure, ruling that the law must be enforced. In the face of false and antisemitic ‘settler violence' campaigns, we have consistently published the facts and irrefutable data, defending the good name of IDF soldiers, the Jewish communities of Judea and Samaria and the State of Israel as a whole.

Jonathan Pollard says: "I'm putting my hand out to Moshe Feiglin. Unify! If you want my head, I'll give it to you, but Jewish unity has to be achieved at any cost!" Jonathan Pollard steps boldly into Israel's political arena — and this time, he's not just a symbol, he's a candidate. Running for the Knesset with the emerging Orot HaShachar (“The Dawn Is Here”) party on the political right, Pollard joins Tamar Yonah for an eye-opening conversation that goes far beyond headlines. Who is really behind this new movement? What challenges lie ahead? And can this rising party rally enough support — and unify others — to reshape Israel's political future? This powerful interview pulls back the curtain on the strategy, the vision, and the stakes. Will Orot HaShachar catch the wave it needs to bring a stronger, larger, and safer Israel into the light? Tune in — because this discussion brings the daylight… and the dawn may already be breaking.
On this show, we start to talk about economics and how the war is shaping things, but as the guest's phone call doesn't go well, Tamar switches to the news, Iran's threat on the world, and she takes calls on the show from listeners. The Tamar Yonah Show 03MAY2026 - PODCAST

מחזה פסח.En: Shira opened the door, and her three steps towards the small stage were well-practiced, but her eyes were solely focused on examining the beginners in preparation for the year-end performance - the Passover play.He: זה היה תפקיד גדול עבור צווי, תלמיד חרוץ שהעדיף לוותר על תשומת הלב, ועכשיו היה אחראי על הבימוי.En: It was a big role for Tzvi, a diligent student who preferred to avoid attention, and now was in charge of directing.He: הוא עבד קשה, אך חש לחוץ ולא בטוח בתפקידו כמנהיג.En: He worked hard but felt pressured and unsure in his role as a leader.He: על הבמה עמד יונה, הכוכב הספונטני של המחזה, עובד על טקסט שהוא לעתים קרובות שוכח.En: On the stage stood Yonah, the spontaneous star of the play, working on a text he often forgot.He: הוא הביט סביב, מחכה לתגובות מהקהל הריק.En: He looked around, waiting for reactions from the empty audience.He: "מה דעתך על תוספת קטנה שלי?En: "What do you think of my little addition?"He: ", שאל יונה את צווי, כשבתוך אחת ידיו מצנפת בד אדומה.En: Yonah asked Tzvi, holding a red fabric cap in one hand.He: צווי נאנח.En: Tzvi sighed.He: "יונה, יש לנו תסריט ברור", אמר, קולו רועד מעט.En: "Yonah, we have a clear script," he said, his voice slightly trembling.He: אבל מבטו של יונה היה מלא ביטחון עצמי שמשך אליו את הקהל הפנימי שלו.En: But Yonah's look was full of self-confidence, attracting his own internal audience.He: שירה נענעה בראשה חיוך.En: Shira shook her head with a smile.He: "צווי, אולי תאפשר לו קצת חופש בשביל היצירתיות שלו?En: "Tzvi, maybe let him have some freedom for his creativity?"He: " היא לחשה כשהתקרבה.En: she whispered as she approached.He: צווי חשב, גם מועד, שמא נראה קטן בעיני שירה.En: Tzvi thought, hesitant, for fear of appearing foolish in Shira's eyes.He: הוא ידע שעליו לכבד את עבודתה על הבמה, אבל הכבדות של המחויבות העיקה עליו.En: He knew he had to respect her work on stage, but the weight of the responsibility was weighing on him.He: השעות חלפו והתחילה החזרה הגנרלית, אבל שום דבר לא הכין את צווי לקראת הקטסטרופה.En: The hours passed, and the final rehearsal began, but nothing prepared Tzvi for the catastrophe.He: סצינה שחשבה שתהיה חזקה החלה להתפרק.En: A scene he thought would be strong began to unravel.He: ההתרחשויות הלכו והסתבכו כשכובעו של יונה נפל ושירה לא הצליחה למצוא את האביזר החשוב בזמן.En: The events became complicated when Yonah's hat fell, and Shira failed to find the crucial prop in time.He: צווי, מותש ומתוסכל, מצא את הקול שהוא אף פעם לא העלה קודם ומתח ויכוח קולני עם יונה.En: Exhausted and frustrated, Tzvi found a voice he had never raised before and started a loud argument with Yonah.He: כולם בהו בתדהמה כשזעם צווי יצא החוצה.En: Everyone stared in amazement as Tzvi's anger came out.He: שירה ניגשה אליו בעדינות.En: Shira approached him gently.He: "צווי, בוא נקשיב זה לזה", אמרה בשלווה.En: "Tzvi, let's listen to each other," she said calmly.He: פתאום הוא הבין שהיא צודקת.En: Suddenly he realized she was right.He: יחד הם ישבו עם כולם בשולחן עגול, עם תה מתוק ועוגיות.En: Together they sat with everyone at a round table, with sweet tea and cookies.He: הם דיברו, צחקו, והבינו איך לשלב את היצירתיות של יונה עם הנחיות הבמה המדויקות של צווי.En: They talked, laughed, and understood how to combine Yonah's creativity with Tzvi's precise stage directions.He: ההצגה עברה שינוי כיוון.En: The play took a new direction.He: ערב הופעת סוף השנה, הכל הרגיש נכון.En: On the evening of the year-end performance, everything felt right.He: האנרגיה בחדר הייתה חיובית ואופטימית.En: The energy in the room was positive and optimistic.He: כשהווילון נפתח, התנועה סביב הבמה הייתה חיה, עם יתרונות הטקסט המועברים כהרגלם והאלתורים של יונה.En: When the curtain opened, the movement around the stage was lively, with the advantages of the text delivered as usual and Yonah's improvisations.He: הקהל לא פסק מלהריע כשהמחזה הסתיים.En: The audience did not stop cheering as the play ended.He: צווי למדו שלפעמים, להנהיג אומר לדעת מתי להקשיב.En: Tzvi learned that sometimes, to lead means knowing when to listen.He: הוא הבין את החשיבות של להיות חלק מקבוצה ולא רק נשיא בודד על הבמה.En: He understood the importance of being part of a group, not just a solitary president on the stage.He: הוא הביט סביב, עיניו נתקלו בעיניה של שירה, והיא הביטה בו עם חיוך גאה.En: He looked around, and his eyes met Shira's, who looked at him with a proud smile.He: העולם נראה פתאום כיותר מזמין ומלא אפשרויות.En: The world suddenly seemed more inviting and full of possibilities.He: פסח בבית הספר היה הצלחה גדולה, אבן גבול בתהליך הלמידה של צווי.En: Passover at the school was a great success, a milestone in Tzvi's learning process.

On February 28, 2026, Ali Khamenei was assassinated. He was killed in a joint American and Israeli airstrike, in a bunker so deep the elevator took five minutes to reach it, at a meeting with senior advisers whose location intelligence services had tracked for months. The infrastructure that made this targeted assassination possible—the human networks engaged in the patient penetration of one of the most hostile intelligence environments on earth—had been built over more than two decades. Today, Yonah Jeremy Bob joins Mosaic's editor Jonathan Silver to delve into how the Mossad build that infrastructure. Bob is the senior military and intelligence analyst for the Jerusalem Post and has deep access to the Israeli intelligence community. His book Target Tehran, co-authored with Ilan Evyatar and published by Simon & Schuster in 2023, was named a top book of the year by the Wall Street Journal. When Prime Minister Netanyahu was photographed in his war room during Operation Midnight Hammer in June 2025, a copy of Target Tehran was visible on the table in front of him. Bob also has a forthcoming book with the Wall Street Journal's Elliot Kaufman, titled In the War Room: The Inside Story of Israel's Fight Against Hamas and the Iranian Axis. Before the airstrikes, there was a decades-long effort to recruit agents inside the nuclear program, to infiltrate Iran's supply chains, and to track and, when necessary, to assassinate the Iranian officials and weapons producers who posed the greatest threat to Israel and America. This episode examines three operations in depth—the 2018 theft of Iran's nuclear archive, the assassination of the weapons-program chief Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, and the infiltration of the supply chain for the Natanz nuclear complex—and asks what Israeli human intelligence is contributing to Operations Roaring Lion and Epic Fury.
