Bibi's pardon request rocks Israeli politics, plus Thanksgiving reflections
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has formally asked President Isaac Herzog for a pardon, a move that could reshape the legal and political landscape ahead of an election year.
In this episode of The Jerusalem Dispatch, Calev Ben David and Elliot Jager break down what the request means, why it happened now, and how the White House’s involvement fits into the picture. The conversation also covers Thanksgiving, exploring why many American Israelis still mark the holiday, its themes of religious freedom and coexistence, and how those ideas resonate in today’s Israel.
