This week Walter’s World covers an exceptional period in the Jewish calendar, as well as most extraordinary events in politics.
Following in quick succession were three important commemorative days as well as Israel’s Independence Day, and Walter describes how Israel remembers and also celebrates.
While our President Reuven Rivlin in his speeches praised the achievements of Israel’s men and women, the Prime Minister spoke about his intention to bring about the so-called two-state Solution. To that subject Walter had a lot to say and you will want to hear it.
He will also take France to task for aligning itself with the Arab lobby and completely ignoring the historic Jewish connection with the Temple Mount and the ancient right to the Jewish Homeland.
And then of course Walter talks about the political manoeuvres of Prime Minister Netanyahu to save his power base which hangs on a fairly thin thread, and how that caused the sudden resignation of Defense Minister Ya’alon.
There is also the yet uncertain position of Avigdor Liberman of Yisrael Beytenu, who joined the coalition government.
Walter is very upset about the utterances of the Deputy Chief of Staff comparing events in Nazi Germany to the actions of Israel and he discusses the implications.
The Walter’s World microphone was in the streets of Jerusalem to find out what people know about the country.
And lots more.
