Episode #1261: A Purim Unlike Any Other

Why is this Purim different from all others? The day before this podcast was recorded, Israel attacked Iran, and 'Operation Lion's Roar' began. While we're all extremely optimistic about what the Middle East might look like as a result of this war, Israelis are extremely tense - and tired - in the meantime. We've been running in and out of shelters ever since the war began, and we've been disturbed at all hours of the day and night by warnings, sirens, and incoming missiles. The warnings we get from our phones, however, are incredibly jarring. Wouldn't it be great if we could change the sound to an appropriate Israeli song? And if we could, which song would we choose? A recent Kan Gimmel post asked that very question, and this week, we're playing some of our favorite suggestions. With wishes for peace and security, we proudly share this very patriotic playlist!
