Regarding Israel.....

Just to give a little POV you probably haven't seen before. Thankfully, for us mono-linguistic Americans, there are subtitles at the bottom. This is from Israeli television--from what I know of it, it's kinda like their version of The Daily Show. I don't get all the jokes--but I get some.

And if it tickles your funny bone, and want to see more, it's called Tribal Update. You can find more of their stuff on Youtube, also with subtitles.
