Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East, and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday.

ToI founding editor David Horovitz and Arab Affairs correspondent Aaron Boxerman join host Jessica Steinberg.

Horovitz looks at the possible suspension of the Western Wall compromise deal that would have formalized the alternative Western wall space for non-Orthodox streams of Judaism, and why this may be happening.

Boxerman discusses the ongoing issue of extremist attacks on Palestinians, and whether the Bennett government can offer more justice for those attacked.

Horovitz speaks about the seriousness of the Iran threat and how much politics is playing into the responses being put forward by Israel and the US.

Boxerman talks about his recent visit to Bethlehem, where Christmas will be celebrated publicly, unlike last year during the coronavirus, but without tourists, who are not being allowed in to the ancient Christian village.

Discussed articles include:

Settler attacks on Palestinians are on the rise, but justice remains elusive

Bethlehem hoped to recoup some coronavirus losses this Christmas. Then came Omicron

After Birthright exception, Holy Land Christians decry Israel’s ‘racist’ travel ban
