On March 23 Israelis go back to the polls (again) — and Jewish Currents will be hosting live coverage and analysis on election night,
with Peter Beinart, Contributing Writer Elisheva
Goldberg, and Assistant Editor Joshua
Leifer, and “a range of guests to discuss what, in their view, is at
stake, including: political analyst Michal Sella; Jaffa city
councilmember Abed Abu Shehadeh; former MK Stav
Shaffir; policy analysts Lara
Friedman and Yousef Munayyer.”
When Israelis go to the polls next week, they will be voting on – among other things – whether to bring followers
of the late Meir Kahane into the Knesset and possibly into the government (since the Kahanists are in partnership
with Netanyahu), on 3/18, FMEP convened a webinar entitled, “Mainstreaming the Extreme: How Meir Kahane’s
Vision of Jewish Supremacy Conquered Israeli Politics.” The webinar featured
featuring Amjad Iraqi (+972
Magazine), Professor Rabbi Shaul Magid (Dartmouth
College and author of the forthcoming Meir Kahane: The Public Life and Political Thought of an American Jewish
Radical), and Natasha
Roth-Rowland (University of Virginia) in conversation
with Lara Friedman (FMEP). Video and resources shared during the webinar
are here; podcast version
