Ma'alot Revisited: When Terrorists Came for the Children

Complete our 2025 survey: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://unpacked.bio/uihsurvey⁠⁠⁠⁠ Help us take Unpacked podcasts further by supporting our crowdfunding campaign: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://unpacked.bio/podgift2025 Noam revisits one of the most devastating episodes in Israeli history—the 1974 Ma’alot school hostage massacre—and explains why, after October 7, this story feels more urgent and unbearable than ever. What began as a joyful field trip marking Israel’s 26th birthday—over a hundred religious high school students exploring northern Israel—turned into a nightmare when three Palestinian terrorists crossed in from Lebanon. This episode tells the story of Ma’alot in all its horror and bloodshed, but also in its defiance and resilience—a reminder that even in the darkest moments, every hour of life matters.

Intelligence Operations that Shaped Israel’s Story with Ronen Bergman, LIVE in LA

Complete our 2025 survey: ⁠⁠⁠https://unpacked.bio/uihsurvey⁠⁠⁠ Help us take Unpacked podcasts further by supporting our crowdfunding campaign: ⁠⁠⁠https://unpacked.bio/podgift2025 How do you get people who don’t talk to talk? In this special live Unpacking Israeli History, Noam Weissman sits down with Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist and Israeli intelligence expert Ronen Bergman (author of Rise and Kill First) for a smart, funny, and deeply human look at the Mossad, Shin Bet, and Israel’s security establishment. Recorded in front of a packed audience at Sinai Temple in Los Angeles, Bergman explains how he persuaded hundreds of operatives to open up, why secrecy and ego can be dangerous, and why he believes Israel’s real “secret weapon” is democracy and accountability. Then, the discussion turns to the hardest question of all—how October 7 happened—through the lens of misread signals, misallocated attention, and hubris. It's a conversation that’s messy, meaningful, and genuinely accessible. Ronen Bermgan writes for the New York Times and Yedioth Ahronoth.

Jewish 2025 Wrap: Peoplehood, Polarization, and Hope

Help us take Unpacked podcasts further by supporting our crowdfunding campaign: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://unpacked.bio/podgift2025⁠⁠⁠ As 2025 ends, Mijal Bitton and Noam Weissman look back on a year that felt both relentless and revealing, then name ten themes that shaped Jewish life, Israel, and the diaspora, except it’s nine, because they’re contrarians, plus what they hope 2026 can become. They unpack the shift from acute crisis to chronic challenge, why “that feeling you’re feeling is peoplehood,” the rise of horseshoe politics and Overton window expansion, the exhaustion of nonstop noise, and the surprising places hope still shows up, including resilience, allies, and moments of solidarity. They also get personal, from Mijal’s pregnancy and the tension of joy amid fear, to Noam’s Israel bar mitzvah trip and what it taught him about civic society. To close, they draw on Rabbi Jonathan Sacks’ guidance for how Jews respond in hard eras, find allies, strengthen unity, and choose joy alongside the fight, then ask what it would look like to build “the ark, plank by plank” in 2026.

The Bondi Beach Massacre and the Meaning of Peoplehood

Complete our 2025 survey: ⁠⁠https://unpacked.bio/uihsurvey⁠⁠ Help us take Unpacked podcasts further by supporting our crowdfunding campaign: ⁠⁠https://unpacked.bio/podgift2025 In the wake of the Bondi Beach massacre, Noam tells three Hanukkah stories about Jews choosing light anyway, a menorah in Bergen-Belsen, hostages lighting candles in captivity, and a defiant window in Nazi Germany. Then an epilogue from Billings, Montana, when a community answered antisemitism with thousands of menorahs in their windows.

What Happens After We Die?

Help us take Unpacked podcasts further by supporting our crowdfunding campaign: ⁠⁠https://unpacked.bio/podgift2025⁠⁠ Book for the Jerusalem Marathon "Return, Reconnect, and Run for Resilience" tour: ⁠⁠sababatravel.com Mijal and Noam dive into one of Judaism’s biggest—and most deliberately open-ended—questions: What does Judaism say about the afterlife, Olam HaBa, the World to Come? They explore why humans across cultures care so deeply about life after death—justice, grief, meaning, and reward—and why the Torah is famously sparse on the subject. Drawing on classical Jewish sources from the Mishnah and Talmud to Maimonides, they unpack what Jewish tradition does (and doesn’t) say about what comes next, including Olam HaZeh vs. Olam HaBa, Gan Eden, resurrection, and the risks of turning religion into a system of spiritual rewards. The takeaway: Judaism insists there is something beyond this life—while refusing to let speculation about the afterlife distract from the sacred work of living well right now. Here is a link to the story from the Talmud discussed in the episode: https://www.sefaria.org/Taanit.22a.7?lang=bi We’re proud to be collaborating with Sefaria and The Simchat Torah Challenge, on this episode along with all the other episodes of our “In the Beginning” mini-series.

Hugging, Hitting, and Helping: Mitch Julis on the Future of Jewish Giving

Help us take Unpacked podcasts further by supporting our crowdfunding campaign: ⁠⁠⁠https://unpacked.bio/podgift2025⁠⁠⁠ Book for the Jerusalem Marathon "Return, Reconnect, and Run for Resilience" tour: ⁠⁠⁠sababatravel.com⁠ Mijal and Noam explore how generosity—of time, money, talent, and attention—has powered the Jewish story across generations, and what it means to make giving a lifelong practice rather than a one-time donation. They’re joined by Mitchell R. Julis, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Canyon Partners, for a wide-ranging conversation about Jewish identity, philanthropy, and responsibility.Drawing on his Romaniote and Ashkenazi family roots and decades of civic, educational, and Jewish leadership, Julis reflects on the difference between power and influence, how philanthropy can both “hug and hit,” and why investing in Jewish education, Israel experiences, and institutions is essential for sustaining Jewish life across generations.

Revisiting the Hebron Massacre: Myths and Their Deadly Repercussions (Part 1)

This week, we’re revisiting one of the most overlooked yet consequential chapters in the Arab–Israeli conflict: the 1929 Hebron Massacre. In just two days, 67 Jews were murdered and an ancient community was destroyed—all sparked by a lie about Jewish plans to take over Al-Aqsa, a false rumor whose fear and fury have echoed for generations. Understanding this story is essential to understanding the region itself. We’re re-releasing this episode now because next week, Noam sits down with journalist and author Yardena Schwartz, author of Ghosts of a Holy War, to explore Hebron’s past and present, and how the mythology surrounding Al-Aqsa continues to shape the conflict in profound ways. This episode, first released in Season 3, is generously sponsored by Liz and Moshe Neiman. To sponsor an episode or to be in touch, please email noam@unpacked.media.

The Hebron Massacre and the Myths Fueling Today’s Conflict — with Yardena Schwartz (Part 2)

Help us take Unpacked podcasts further by supporting our crowdfunding campaign: https://unpacked.bio/podgift2025 Noam Weissman talks with journalist and author Yardena Schwartz about her book Ghosts of a Holy War and how the 1929 Hebron massacre helped ignite the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. They trace the century-long thread of the cry “Al-Aqsa is in danger”—how Grand Mufti Hajj Amin al-Husseini weaponized it in 1929, tied it to his alliance with Nazi Germany, and how those myths continue to fuel violence from the Hebron riots to the Second Intifada to Hamas’s “Al-Aqsa Flood.” Along the way, they explore Hebron’s sacred place in Jewish history, the trauma of 1929, the rise of the settlement movement, the Jewish underground’s plan to bomb the Dome of the Rock, and Baruch Goldstein’s 1994 attack. They end in present-day Hebron—H1 and H2—meeting Palestinians and Israelis who still believe a different future is possible. Here is a link to Ghosts of a Holy War, The 1929 Massacre in Palestine That Ignited the Arab-Israeli Conflict, by Yardena Schwarz. This episode is in memory of Leo M. Bernstein.

When Sadat Came to Jerusalem (re-release)

That’s why we’re revisiting one of our favorite episodes: the story of the weekend Anwar Sadat came to Jerusalem. November 19, 1977. It was perhaps the most unusual Shabbat in Israel’s history. Because after the havdala service, Israeli families glued themselves to their TVs or radios, waiting anxiously for a visitor they never dreamed would arrive. Anwar Sadat, President of Egypt, had come to Jerusalem to speak of peace. What happened next changed the Middle East forever.
