JL;DR SUMMARY In this discussion, Allison, Don, and Noah touch on three main topics: Prime Minister Netanyahu's recent visits to African countries as part of a "periphery strategy" amid strained relations with Europe and the US, a government committee's recommendations to address discrimination against Sephardi/Mizrahi Jewish heritage in Israel's education system, and the commercialization of sleep-away camps in Israel by Proctor & Gamble, including the installation of air-conditioned bathrooms playing tampon ads.
