Israeli Society at a Crossroads — An Insider’s View
Forming a Government: Behind the Scenes
How does Israel’s President decide who receives the mandate to form a government? Rivka takes audiences inside the closed rooms, political pressures, private consultations and constitutional conventions that shape the process—revealing the human drama behind the headlines.
Haredim and Secular Israelis: The Rift and the Bridge
Tensions over religion and state, military service, education and public life are reshaping Israeli society. From the unique perspective of a Haredi woman who helped lead one of Israel’s most unifying state institutions, Rivka explains the values and fears driving both communities—and explores where understanding and common ground may still be possible.
