Free Military Press
Hear the unique and often astonishing stories of “Galei Tzhal”
and “Bamahane,” the IDF’s radio station and newspaper, which

performing mandatory service. Since the creation of the State of
Israel, these iconic media outlets have had to reconcile conflicts
between free speech and national security.
