Jeffay talks about an Israeli study regarding the psychosomatic side effects of Covid vaccines and how that affects those gearing up for their next boosters.

Fabian explains the partnership between the US Lockheed Martin and Israel’s Rafael weapons manufacturer who are developing a laser interception system, with mutual investment and development teams from both companies.

Jeffay talks about an Israeli sociology study finding that gynecological research has overlooked women going through menopause or who are post menopause.
