The Only-Bibi Camp Vs Never-Bibi Camp - with Ari Shavit

Benjamin Netanyahu towers over Israeli politics like no other living leader. Everything about him – from his vision to his demeanor, from his entanglement with Israel’s legal system to his personal life – is a source for division. So much so that he became the litmus test by which Israel’s political tribes are divided.

Dan was joined by Israeli journalist and author Ari Shavit to discuss how Netanyahu came to embody Israel’s political divide, what his pardon request from President Herzog means for his future, and whether Israelis can reach unity in a post-Netanyahu world.
