David BashevkinHOST
There was a sense that the Zionist movement, the real leaders, were not Jews who were deeply educated and pious in the way that we think of rabbinic leadership, and it led to a little bit of a split that we're still feeling now within the Zionist movement.
David BashevkinHOST
There was, however, notably one rabbi who got up and, with a little bit of controversy, gave a eulogy for Theodor Herzl, and that was, he had just arrived in the land of Israel at where Rav Kook, who was a rabbi in Jaffa, that was the first time that he was a rabbi before he became the chief rabbi of Israel, and Rav Kook actually came forward and gave a eulogy for Herzl.
David BashevkinHOST
This is what's known quite famously as the Hesped Berushalayim, the eulogy in Jerusalem.
David BashevkinHOST
And Rav Kook gave a very moving speech where he actually did not mention Theodor Herzl particularly, but spoke about these two figures and specifically about our passage in Talmud, about the Messiah, the son of Joseph.

Marco QuintanaHOST
Just like Abraham, they are dwelling there.
Marco QuintanaHOST
Today, we see that Jews are back in the land, and guess who is attacking them? Iran, right? Back in 24, 25, rockets sent into Haifa, Jaffa, all these places in the north, as well as the south, Tel Aviv, were attacked.
Marco QuintanaHOST
Iran sends drones, missiles, and of course, through its proxies, you have Hamas, you have Hezbollah, and they're causing conflicts in the Middle East, and most of the trouble is I've been alive for 51 years, and most of the trouble in my lifetime is due to Islam.
Marco QuintanaHOST
So for the last, at least in Iran, for the last 47 years, it's been due to Islam.
Scott JohnsonHOST
Quote, there's no chance, unquote.
Scott JohnsonHOST
At a hair salon in Jaffa, Saudo Zorab, 48, an Arab citizen, said that Jewish Israelis seem happy to be treated by Muslim doctors and to eat at Arab restaurants, but unwilling to give Arab citizens a role in charting the country's future.
Scott JohnsonHOST
I feel like garbage, he said.
Scott JohnsonHOST
He added that he wished Mr. Eisenkopf had the courage to form a government with Arab parties.
Carter RoyHOST
And then there's the fact that Catherine Edo's body was found in Whitechapel's Mitre Square.
Carter RoyHOST
It's a meeting spot for the Masonic Lodge of Joppa.
Carter RoyHOST
Joppa, Israel, is where King Solomon's men found and captured the ruffians.
Carter RoyHOST
Plus, there's a tool called a Mitre Square that's used in masonry.
Carter RoyHOST
What's more, Jack cut some of his victims' faces.
Isabella HigginsHOST
The nation's Arab parties performed strongly, but both sides have vowed not to work with them.
Isabella HigginsHOST
For more, Middle East correspondent Caitlin Kelly joined me from Jaffa.
Caitlin KellyCORRESPONDENT
The current results show that Netanyahu has 53 seats in Israel's Knesset and his rival, Gadi Eizenkot, has 48.
Caitlin KellyCORRESPONDENT
This gives neither of these two main blocks the majority to form a government.
Caitlin KellyCORRESPONDENT
That has prompted a reaction from Netanyahu in the past few hours to accuse the Arab parties of stealing the election.
Caitlin KellyCORRESPONDENT
His party have demanded a police and even a secret service investigation into that, but have provided very little evidence.
Caitlin KellyCORRESPONDENT
On the ground here, I'm sitting in Jaffa, which is traditionally a Palestinian area in the south of Tel Aviv.
Caitlin KellyCORRESPONDENT
And I've spent the day speaking to Palestinian citizens of Israel.
Dana LoeschHOST
That's stupid.
Dana LoeschHOST
They had, how do you have a 75% turnout in an apartheid state? How do you have a giant mosque on the historic Jaffa beachfront in an apartheid state? Right next to a monastery too, by the way.
Dana LoeschHOST
And then right next to them is like one of the greatest places.
Dana LoeschHOST
I had a lemon slushie.
Ezra LippHOST
It is about the Oslo years in Israel, Palestine.
Ezra LippHOST
And you were on the ground doing research in Tel Aviv and Jaffa during that time.
Mark LeVineGUEST

Mark LeVineGUEST
Here's the figure that really, I was sitting once in a cafe in Tel Aviv, I hate to say, where else are you going to be? I was either in Jaffa or in Tel Aviv or in Ramallah or somewhere, but that moment, it's in Tel Aviv, and I was thinking about, Israelis are not dumb.
Mark LeVineGUEST
They understand what's happening.
Evan HansenHOST
