March 7 2026-An Israeli's Perspective on the War Against Iran & The Importance of Sleep for your Health It’s been more than a week since the start of the American-Israeli attack on Iran. Since then, the conflict has intensified and engulfed other countries in the Middle east, and there has been criticism charging a lack of clear objectives and an exit strategy from the US. For the Israeli perspective, I talked with Professor Gabriel Ben Dor, who teaches National Security and Political science at the University of Haifa. And We’ve just shifted our clocks forward to DST, and as a result we’ve lost an hour of sleep. There are consequences to losing just this one hour, which most experts agree is bad for us - it’s usually followed by an uptick in crashes and medical events. And It comes on top of what some experts call a sleep debt. The numbers show that more than 40% of Canadians are sleep deprived, while there’s more and more evidence that sleep is a key to maintaining health. I talked to Dr. Christine Palmay about why sleep is so essential and how to get as much as you need.
