    Call Me Back with Nadav Eyal and Amit Segal

    Could Israel’s next election reshape not just its government, but its relationship with the United States? In this members-only Ask Me Anything, Amit Segal and Nadav Eyal take your questions on the high-stakes election, the political calculations happening behind the scenes, and what could happen if Israel finds itself facing another round of fighting with Iran just as it tries to form a new government. - An Israeli strike on Iran before the election—or a war in the political limbo that follows. What happens if the timing changes everything? - Election promises, coalition deals, and the question of whether any Israeli politician really means what they say about refusing to sit with Netanyahu. - October 7, the Haredi draft exemption, and the vulnerabilities that could finally cost Netanyahu the election. - Could the U.S. actually stop selling arms to Israel? And what would that mean for the entire Middle East? - Tzachi Hanegbi’s break with Netanyahu: a personal falling-out, or a sign of something shifting on the Israeli right? - Are younger Israelis really moving toward Gadi Eisenkot and Naftali Bennett—or are the polls missing something? - What should Israel’s next government do first? Amit and Nadav have some very different priorities, from cutting subsidies to the ultra-Orthodox to investigating October 7 and rebuilding Israel’s standing in the world. Plus, what happens if neither side can form a government—and how many elections is too many? ___ 𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗗𝗮𝗻 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗜𝘀𝗿𝗮𝗲𝗹’𝘀 𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁. On Tuesday, October 27th, at 4 p.m. ET, just as the polls close in Israel and the exit polls come out, Dan, Michael Koplow from the Israel Policy Forum and Lahav Harkov, Senior Political Correspondent at Jewish Insider, will break down the results as they come in. The conversation takes place in The Fold, Ark Media’s private online community where listeners of Call Me Back and our other shows meet, ask questions, and go deeper on what they hear. The event is open to members of The Fold. 𝗧𝗼 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗮 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁, 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲: https://arkmedia.org/subscribe ___ Thank you for being an Ark+ subscriber.

    Ask Me Anything with Tal Becker and Jon Polin

    What does it take to defend Israel, confront antisemitism, and still hold on to the values that make us Jewish? Tal Becker and Jon Polin tackle your toughest questions about Israel’s standing in the world, the growing reach of anti-Israel rhetoric, and the challenges facing Jews everywhere. In this episode: - 𝗜𝘀𝗿𝗮𝗲𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗮𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗿𝗮. Why the relationship between Israeli and diaspora Jews needs to become a genuine partnership—and what Israeli leaders may be missing about the world beyond their borders. - 𝗨𝗞 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝗻. Tal unpacks what is known, what remains uncertain, and why the legal details matter when it comes to the possible UK trade ban against Israeli settlements. Maintaining compassion when hatred feels justified. Jon reflects on his son’s captivity and death in Gaza, and on the Jewish imperative to resist the temptation to condemn an entire people. - 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲.

Why Jewish texts and traditions should belong to the entire Jewish people, and how to make Jewish learning more inviting and less coercive. - 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗹𝗼𝘄-𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹. Tal explains why the case at The Hague could take years—and why the slowness is part of the strategy. - 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗻𝗼𝗻-𝗝𝗲𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘂𝗽 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗝𝗲𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲?
