What are your views on the claim that Israel is a secular and
not a Jewish state?
Halfway through the show, a lot of antisemites take over the live
chat and things get intense. We asked the mods not to remove their
comments so that they demonstrate how big of a problem antisemitism
is.
We talk to Yuval Berger to discuss religion in Israel. Yuval grew
up in Israel in a small agricultural community most of my life,
which was also close to Israeli Muslim communities. He is troubled
by the significant lack of knowledge about Israel and the role of
religion in it.
