Two IDF Reservists Killed in Lebanon; New Political Parties Emerge. What Do They Mean? Ep. 867
Two IDF reservists were killed and four more wounded in southern Lebanon after a booby-trapped house exploded during what the IDF called a ceasefire violation; former Likud MK Dan Ilouz is jumping to Yisrael Beiteinu ahead of the elections; and ex-Likud heavyweights Gilad Erdan and Yuli Edelstein are launching a new right-wing party to challenge Netanyahu from outside his coalition. Plus! Political analyst Benyamin Moalem joins the show to break down today's political shake-up, and a Torah thought from Rabbi Yossi Madvig closes things out.
