So exciting! What a time to go. That new government is going to be something else 😬

If you’re looking for books for future reading Rise and Kill First: The Secret History of Israel's Targeted Assassinations comes highly recommend (by my dad, for one) https://www.amazon.com/Rise-Kill-First-Targeted-Assassinations/dp/1400069718/

And I remember reading a few books by Tom Segev. Here’s his One Palestine, Complete: Jews and Arabs Under the British Mandate (Moynihan, Welch, or Yael should know if he’s a reliable historian)

I’ve been meaning to read Noa Tishby’s book. Moving that to the top of list.

Yay! Excited for us readers (and listeners)

For post Holocaust in Europe history, check out The Last Million” Europe’s displaced persons from World War to Cold War, by David Nasaw. Lots of interesting information here. Looking forward to your next dispatch...

Do they mention in "above and beyond" that Milton Rubenfeld is Pee-Wee Herman's father??

The Swamp Boy story was incredible, thanks for recommending it. I now understand where the “won and done” tweet came from. I too thought it was one and done, interesting that it can work either way
