It’s been a year and a half since October 7, and as Passover approaches—a holiday also known as the Festival of Spring—we ask: Springtime, but for who? 

In this episode, I’ll talk about the psychological state of Israelis right now, through the lens of several unfolding stories: Netanyahu’s European vacation, the firing of Shin Bet Chief Ronen Bar, the Gaza ambulance strike, and talk of an upcoming conflict with Iran. 

What connects them all is a public that feels increasingly powerless.

I’ll also takes your questions—from Pesach hikes into Syria and ethics in the IDF. 

Don’t forget: the Inside Israel live broadcast is now Wednesdays only, with the next episode airing April 20 at 1pm ET.
