Thank you both for this engaging conversation about the nuanced complexities that many of us as American Jews are facing in these terrible times. Thank you for acknowledging the uncomfortable fractures within the J community. I am a survivor of physical and verbal antisemitic attacks and have become alarmed by the recent celebrity pro-Palestinian/pro-Hamas bandwagon. I can no longer discuss any of this with most friends or acquaintances, who have been inundated with antisemitic rhetoric from mainstream media.
We need to be more critical of the governing powers than the people being governed.
