Knesset

The previous two days we traveled to the Knesset and talked with various members of the Knesset. We met with various political parties, from the Joint List to the Likud. It was interesting to hear the different members view points on a wide range of topics, from Arab-Israeli relations to Israeli national security. Additionally, we even briefly stopped by the Knesset's equivalent to C-SPAN.
