Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: New Eastern Europe at 67% against The Jerusalem Post's 15%. New Eastern Europe also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.6) and ads (none vs shown). The Jerusalem Post's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 11 months) and ratings volume (204 vs 5). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. The Jerusalem Post sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and New Eastern Europe sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $16.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
