Next Episode: 13. What's Going on in Israeli Politics? (with Israeli journalist Elhanan Miller)

After Israel's second election in just a few months we're joined by former president of the New Israel Fund and former Deputy Speaker of the Knesset Naomi Chazan to process and analyse all the election results.

Will Benjamin Netanyahu stay on as prime minister? Does Benny Gantz have a path to the coalition of 61 seats he needs to take the top job? The Joint Arab List will be the third largest party, so if Likud and Blue + White go into a 'unity' government together, will the Joint List's leader, Ayman Odeh, be the country's first Arab opposition leader?

So many questions and we do our best to answer as many of them as possible.

This was recorded live as part of a livestreamed Q&A with Naomi Chazan on Thursday 19 September. You can watch the video back on YouTube.
