Executing Terrorists?

Author: Yishai Fleisher February 24, 2017 Duration: 36:46
Why did Elor Azaria get only a year and a half sentence for executing a downed terrorist? How is a new online supermarket changing the lives of people in and around the Old City of Jerusalem? Why are anti Israel organizations reaching out to Orthodox girls seminaries? Malkah Fleisher joins Yishai for some rowdy Jewish radio from the heartland.
