Episode description
Today is the 12th of the Hebrew month of Cheshvan. On this day, twenty six years ago, a devastating societal, ideological and political earthquake shook Israel to the core.

Has Israeli society learned its lesson or are we doomed to more division and perhaps to further political assassinations?
