Peter Beinart, once a defender of the Israeli state, has become one of its sharpest critics. His new book, Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza, was born out of Beinart's personal struggle within the Jewish community in the wake of the war. In the book, Beinart makes an urgent appeal, asking his peers to imagine a world in which Palestinians and Israeli Jews share equal rights. In today's episode, Beinart joins NPR's Leila Fadel for a discussion that touches on the intertwined relationship between Israeli and Palestinian safety and how a reimagined Israeli state could lead to a better future for all people.

One of the most popular card games in the world is poker. 

The game was played in the old west among cowboys, by dogs on velvet paintings, and by the crew of the Star Ship Enterprise. 

Poker is played informally among friends and family, yet it is also a high-stakes competitive game where millions of dollars can be won or lost.

It is a game that has origins that go back centuries, but in its modern manifestation, it is also very modern.

Learn more about the game of Poker and how it became one of the most popular card games in the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Perhaps the most respected and feared soldiers in the world are those who belong to Special Forces. 

Special Forces are considered to be the elite of the elite. Most nations have some sort of Special Forces units in their military. 

Some of the best-known Special Forces units are household names and others are, how shall we say, more secret. 

While Special Forces seem rather modern, the tradition of creating units of elite soldiers actually goes back to antiquity.

Learn more about Special Operations Forces and their history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

On the morning of February 14, 1929, a horrific crime took place on the north side of Chicago.

Seven men were lined up against the wall of an auto garage and gunned down in cold blood by machine gun fire. 

The event marked the low point of the violent mob wars that took place in the city of Chicago. It also marked a turning point in attitudes towards prohibition in the United States and the war on organized crime.
