Episode Description from the Publisher

Part 1: Rabbi Spiro and Ellie are discussing the riots and demonstrations by Israel's Charedim who are against conscription and the cultural history behind the animus. How do we as a people with different visions of what the center of our lives should be start to reckon with the fact that we need each other. We begin with the history of the animus between the religious world and the secular zionist movements and how it has set us up today to not even be able to talk together and what kind of country we want Israel to be now and in the future.
