  • At our December 8th service, Rabbi Steven connected the ancient themes of Hanukkah to the present-day realities of antisemitism and hatred which we must overcome together.

    Whether you are tired or not is irrelevant. Antisemitism is real, thriving and threatening.

    But that's an oversimplification of reality. I am one of these people who wants evidence but that doesn't mean I accuse anyone of lies. I merely want the evidence because our ability to render an accurate, and nuanced moral judgment depends upon it.
    Furthermore, your using the hateful chants made by the few to dismiss the legitimate grievances of millions of Palestinians who are enduring the most barbaric and brutal treatment by the Israelis who control every aspect of their life and how much the Palestinians can collectively get in terms of food, freedom, and hopes.
    The fact that you ignore the degrading treatment that the Palestinian people endure and want to focus on hate of the Jews as this independent phenomenon that is the only explanation to the violence that happened on October 7.
    Even if they weren't Jews, even if the state of Israel was a state for the Hindus and afflicted the same reality on the Palestinian, the reaction would've been the same.
    If you keep asserting antisemitism as the explanatory paradigm, then you will NEVER fix it.
