Bondi vs. October 7: The Politics of Accountability

Not Zionist: Who Are a Third of Israel’s Voters? | Politica Israel

Two communities make up a third of Israel’s population, don’t serve in the military, and increasingly decide who governs.  Sharon and Yuval examine Israel’s Haredi and Arab populations — two groups that sit outside the Zionist mainstream for very different reasons. One is growing fast and the other has been largely excluded from government.  This episode of Politica Israel podcast covers demographics, political leverage on the Knesset in Israel, and the coalition trade-offs shaping the next election.

What's left of the Left and who's right about the Right | Politica Israel

Before examining the issues driving the upcoming Israeli election, it's worth pausing to understand the political landscape itself. Traditional categories of left and right have shifted so dramatically in Israeli politics that they can obscure more than they reveal. In this episode of Politica Israel Podcast, Sharon and Yuval map the new fault lines dividing Israeli voters, including Netanyahu's leadership. Israeli political parties and conventional political identities have become more complicated and less predictable ahead of what may be the most significant Israeli election in its history. ▶️ Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/jra1tvsVFEg [https://youtu.be/jra1tvsVFEg]

The Coalition Games, Election Fever and the Battle for the Knesset

Israel appears to be heading toward another election, but this episode goes beyond the headlines to explain how the Knesset, coalition politics and Israel’s voting system work.  In Politica Israel podcast, Sharon and Yuval unpack why this election is so consequential, from judicial reform and Netanyahu’s trial to the growing debate over the future of Israeli democracy itself.

Bondi vs. October 7: The Politics of Accountability

This episode compares how Australia and Israel have responded to their most significant terror attacks. While Australia is already undertaking a Royal Commission into the Bondi attack, Israel still has no independent inquiry into October 7 attack, more than two years later. Sharon and Yuval unpack the political, legal and societal reasons behind that delay, including why Israel's  High Court and competing narratives have turned tragedy into politics. The conversation explores why accountability matters—not just for Israel, but for Jewish communities worldwide—and what’s at stake if those questions remain unanswered.

If everyone won the war, who lost? Israel, Iran and the battle for a victory

In this episode of Politica, Sharon Offenberger and Yuval Regev unpack how the US, Israel and Iran each frame the war's outcome in their favour. The conversation explores how victory is no longer decided by military achievements, but in perception. As public opinion, political affiliation and media ecosystems shape entirely different understandings of the same war, this episode asks simple but uncomfortable questions about how Israeli and global narratives will affect Israel's future, especially if they do not align.
