Bondi vs. October 7: The Politics of Accountability

A Court without a democracy, for a democracy without a Court: Explaining Israel’s constitutional crisis

Israel is officially going to elections on 27 October 2026, and just before moving to a caretaker government, a new assault on democratic institutions is taking place. For the first time in Israel's history, the government has declared in a statement that it will not respect a Supreme Court ruling. Sharon and Yuval discuss the fight for three democratic institutions: the judiciary, the media, and the Attorney General.  Without a formal constitution, the stakes of this election are clear.

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.
