This Year in Israel

Nice as it would be to turn away, the Ricochet Podcast follows up on the chaos covered last week with a new pair of guests. David P Goldman joins for the first time to lay out China’s long term strategy to build global markets, the edge it’s gaining in the tech sector, the risks of its real estate bubble and the types of opportunity it may look for from the war in Middle East. Then Annika Rothstein gives a powerful report from what we may call the relative saftey of Jersulem. She talks about her harrowing trip to Kibbutz Be’eri and the mood of Israelis stuck waiting for the war to begin.

Peter, James and Steve Hayward discuss the bloodthirsty protests stateside and in Europe (where Steve’s calling from); and with all the unrest, they lament how little can be done without a functioning functioning House of Representatives.

    Did Oktoberfest become a thing when October was the 8th month, or not until later?

    It is a very good sign that Jews are immigrating into Israel.

    To mildly defend Israel. I think Israel will record where the money goes in a semi-fair fashion.

    Israel doesn’t need money.  Its enemy is a terrorist gang, not an empire 6,000 miles long.

    What it needs is political support in the U.N. and the international community.

    Peter references Condi Rice’s comments at White Plaza at Stanford as having an ameliorating effect.  Can a link to her comments, video or in print, be provided somewhere on Ricochet?
