Some important news: I'm starting a newsletter! Subscribe and you'll get links to all my articles; thoughts and stories too complex for Twitter but too short for a full feature; cutting room material from my reporting; and Q&As with readers and critics. Also, some bonus stuff!

Make sure you don't miss the inaugural edition by signing up here: yair.substack.com

For your holiday reading pleasure, I put together a little of some of my favorite stories I've written (and some I didn't) from the last decade. You'll find everything from Harvard professors in the international Bible contest, to Mormons almost bringing down the Israeli government, to Middle East peace negotiators attempting to resolve the Latke-Hamantashen debate, to reporting from the front lines of American and Israeli politics. Something for everyone, basically. Enjoy! And be sure to subscribe to the newsletter to get stories like these right in your inbox in 2020 and beyond.
