About this episode

The episode discusses Israel's position in the Middle East amid recent US-Iran tensions, lawsuits against Google by publishing houses, and the popularity of Japan's prime minister.

With Washington describing the latest peace talks in Rome between Israel and Lebanon as “productive and positive”, we look at where Jerusalem stands in the wider Middle East conflict. Then: why are three publishing houses suing Google? And: we examine the Japanese prime minister’s popularity. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
