Israel Votes, Part 2: What the Parties Stand For

Israel's parties are asking for your vote, but many haven't written down what they'd do with it — Likud's last platform dates to around 2009. This episode reads the actual documents, the leader quotes, and the voting records to map where each list really stands. The Haredi draft has become a two-sided precondition that could block anyone from forming a government. October 7th divides the field between those demanding a state commission of inquiry and those refusing to say. The judicial overhaul is back in redrafted form, with an override clause as a coalition condition. And on the Palestinians, the sharpest line isn't between blocs — it's between almost everyone and two small parties. Plus: what the Arab lists are actually campaigning on, and why 184 killings in Arab communities in ten months barely makes national news.
