Israel at War - and how you can help (S2, E40)
Description
At 8 PM EDT this past Thursday, June 12, the State of Israel took on a task that the rest of the world should have done long ago: It started an effort to destroy Iran's nuclear program. The early stages of the effort brought great success, but for every action, there is a reaction, and the cost of that reaction will be paid in spilled Israeli blood in the homeland. In today's episode, we discuss how you can contribute during this time of war and what you can do to support those in need. We also discuss how you can conduct yourself and try not to be consumed by the nearly instant news cycle.
Below are some organizations you can doate to to help in the effort:
