Are there any well known Israeli born philosophers/Israeli philosophical essays or books that you know about?
pic unrelated, he wasnt born in Israel.
Yoav Eliasi
Amir Hetzroni
Chanoch Daum
Yair Lapid (inspired by the Greeks, mainly)

Yair Lapid is a journalist, a politician and a celebrity.
Are you telling me he is also a distinguished philosopher?
>>1080739
Oh I get it, you are joking. Well, fuck you.
>>1080771
He is a well respected philosopher and thinker. Some of his most famous works are his analysis of the Greek philosopher, Copernicus, and his essay about the dangers of populism in politics.

And so is The Shadow? A rapper?..
I am talking about proper philosophers who have philosophical ideas worthy of thought and not journalist making quips about Aristotle.
Israelis cant even answer 4chan posts properly. Im ashamed.

Alright I think I understand you are literally autistic so I'll explain the joke.
The Shadow is a shit tier rapper from the early 2000's who became an attentionwhoring right wing """icon""" that makes /pol/ look like polite moderates.
Hetzroni is a leftist professional provacatuer and proud Ashkenazi supremacist
Daum is a famous collumnist and """""""""""comedian""""""""""" with the humor of a wet piece of paper
Lapid once called Copernicus a Greek philosopher in one of his pre-politics collumns in an attempt to be smart, and is now populism in human form
I guess if you need an actual answer there is Yeshayahu Leibowitz
>>1080819
Yes, I know who these morons are.
Leibowitz is not exactly a philosopher.
>>1080846
That's the closest you'll get.
We aren't a very philosophical country
>>1080850
You simply, like myself, have no clue but there obviously are israeli philosophers.
I was just wondering if there are any world renowned ones.

There are some other ones but these are some of the most notable ones that come to my mind.
P.s this board is absolute trash.
