The "Might Less Be More?" Edition

Allison Kaplan Sommer, Don Futterman and Noah Efron discuss three topics of incomparable importance and end with an anecdote about something in Israel that made them smile this week.

—DNR for Labor?—

Is pulling the plug on Israel's Labor Party the only decent thing to do?

—In Seeking Peace, Might Less Be More?—

Would Israelis and Palestinians be better off, if Americans stopped trying to broker grand peace accords?

—What's So Wrong with Law & Liberty—

A group of conservative lawyers in Israel, following the lead of America's Federalist Society, play the long-game to change Israel's courts beyond recognition. Is that a bad thing?

—Political Bait and Switch?—

For our most unreasonably generous Patreon supporters, in our extra-special, special extra discussion, we help the Academy for the Hebrew Language pick the "Word of the Year"!

All that and the extraordinary genius of Nissim Black!
