This week for the first time in more than four decades, Jerusalem held a parade for the Israeli holiday of Purim. It's traditionally a party for kids and adults, but this year, the war has muted the festivities and even caused controversy over that parade. Nick Schifrin and producer Karl Bostic talked with Israelis about a subdued celebration in a time of war. PBS NewsHour is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders
