We're giving over this week’s edition to the Israel & Palestine conflict. During Helen’s three years as a diplomat in Tel Aviv, she developed unique insights and a deep understanding of the issues. While we generally avoid very mainstream news, we think that we can tell you something you haven't already heard.

Also, we've had multiple requests to cover it (looking at you Policy Fellow at Perth USAsia!). We are nothing if not customer focused.

It’s a serious understatement to call the Israeli-Palestinian conflict a divisive topic. Sort of like writing about whether the dress is blue or gold but you know, more serious. So we've decided not to link to any outrageous material showing one side doing something awful to the other - you can find plenty of that yourself on the internet. We hope you’ll read this week’s edition in the spirit it’s intended - as a genuine effort to contextualise the conflict to help you arrive at your own conclusions.

We’ll also be including an extra goodie in our audio feed this week - Helen will talk candidly about her experience in Tel Aviv and how she approached writing the following piece.
