Bibi Gets Immunity - Just Not the Kind He Really Wants

Allison Kaplan Sommer is joined by Meirav Arlosoroff and Omer Benjakob on the first day Israelis receive their COVID vaccinations to discuss pandemic policy and the dangerous cyberattacks threatening the security of Israel and the United States.  We ask whether Netanyahu’s prime time vaccination Saturday night was a PR stunt or whether he should be applauded as the first world leader to publicly get the coronavirus shot, as we assess his successes and failures when it comes to leading Israel through the pandemic.  We also discuss the assault by Iranian and Arab hackers against Israeli companies and national security infrastructure in light of the devastating Russian cyber aggression in the United States.  Recommended related reading: https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium.HIGHLIGHT-can-israel-actually-meet-netanyahu-s-ambitious-covid-19-vaccine-target-1.9360597 https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium-why-local-lockdowns-failed-to-curb-covid-19-in-israel-1.9370034 https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/iran-israel-response-pay2key-who-behind-cyberattack-israeli-firms-1.9381287  https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/tech-news/.premium.HIGHLIGHT-it-s-not-about-money-destructive-cyberattack-proves-israel-lacks-one-key-thing-1.9357223  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
