JL;DR SUMMARY Allison Kaplan Sommer, Noah Efron, and Miriam Herschlag from Times of Israel discuss the ban on parties spreading hate in elections in Israel, the rise of a libertarian party advocating for weed legalization and annexation, the popularity of the Burning Man festival in Israel known as Midburn, and the lack of concern in Israel over Ilhan Omar's criticism of Israel.

But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
