This piece is part of a larger series, introducing a new podcast by @liel and Tablet about "The Battle for Israel's Soul": https://t.co/MajolVTK4R
Who governs Israel: elected officials or unelected judges?
A new look at how the Supreme Court's growing role in appointments, military policy, and Oct. 7 investigations has revived the debate over judicial supremacy.

New for Tablet: I recount the experience of crashing into the limits of scientific reason and finding answers in what Kabbalists call "the truth of the truth."
The digital age promised that more information would bring more truth. Instead, we've become less certain than ever what is real.
@Jacob__Siegel on AI, the limits of reason, and the Jewish answer to a crisis of meaning.

American and Israeli interests in Lebanon are not at odds, @Doranimated told @GadiTaub1.
"We are teaching Iran geography. Lebanon is not Iran."
Iran can only negotiate over issues related to its immediate environment and borders, Doran argues.

Our June issue is out!
Why do Marxists, Islamists, and fascists so often arrive at the same enemy?
Plus: Jacob Siegel on the internet's enlightenment problem, Matthew Fishbane on Punta del Este, South America's summer playground for elites, Harry Stein on the brief life of the Paris Metro, and much more. Only in Tablet.
The alliance between Marxism and Islamism rests on an idea neither side wants to admit: its revolutionary worldview traces back to the Hebrew Bible.
A history of how Jewish ideas were repurposed and turned against Jews.

Taiwan counts all ballots and has results by 8:30 pm. Why does California take weeks?
Delayed results are a symptom of a system designed to produce doubt.
@ArminRosen explains the revolution of American voting laws and practices since 2016:

California, for example, switched to all-mail voting in 2020, extended the post-election counting window from 3 to 17 days, and introduced unsupervised public drop boxes.
Relatively few of those changes were reversed when the pandemic ended.
The old communism sought to flatten human differences. Today's technology makes that project easier than ever.
What happens when revolutionary politics and systems built for uniformity start speaking the same language?
