Parliament Member: "The Supreme Court is Gutting the Parliament of Substance"
Israel's Parliament is trying to restrict the supreme court. One parliament member: "four million people vote for parliament just to have the supreme court rule a law 'unconstitutional'".
Vocational education graduates - Mizrahi Jews with less education and low wages
A study by The Central Bank of Israel found: Most vocational education graduates 50 years ago were Mizrahi Jews - and only 27% of them expressed a desire to study in these scools.
People who Need to Choose Between Their Basic Needs and Hope
There's a close connection between poverty and gambling, more than someone needs food, clothing or shelter, they need to believe a better life is possible.

Israel's Highest institutions as a Game to be Assembled as You Please.
Maybe it's because Israel doesn't have a constitution or maybe it's these post modern times in which there is no right or wrong, but recently elected officials are trying to deconstruct and rebuild the supreme court, the parliament and the army as would benefit them politically.
Educational Gaps in Israel Between Mizrahi and Ashkenazi Jews

These projects are an eclectic body of work based on issues that are important to me, from the pandemic of gambling through the political corruption in Israel to the abundance of wars in this part of the world.
