Categorie:
Israel is marking its 75th anniversary. America has always been its closest foreign ally, but that relationship has seldom been easy. That’s true now: progressive Democrats are questioning the party’s innate pro-Israel stance, and Benjamin Netanyahu’s controversial judicial reforms have met with open disapproval from the White House. What might relations look like in another 75 years? The Economist’s Josie Delap assesses the impact of Netanyahu’s judicial plans. We go back to a eulogy given by an American leader for his Israeli counterpart. And The Economist’s Anshel Pfeffer considers what influence American Jews have over Israeli politics.John Prideaux hosts with Charlotte Howard and James Bennet.
