We discuss Israel’s remarkable success against Hezbollah so far, including whether we can rejoice in our enemy’s destruction (we can) and whether AOC understands the laws of armed conflict (she doesn’t). Although Israel does not need our advice on military strategy, as much as Asher tries, it certainly could use everyone’s help with their PR, or hasbara. Someone leading that charge is our guest, Amit Grinfeld, the Co-Founder and CEO of We Walk Together, an organization devoted to promoting Israel through education and outreach. Asher closes by getting us in the mood for the New Year.
A Rabbi and a Lawyer Walk Into a Bar
Grab a seat and join old friends, Rabbi Asher Lopatin and his former synagogue president, John Geiringer. Imagine sharing a drink with two news junkies who keep an open mind, challenge the status quo, and love discussing the comedy, tragedy, absurdity, and reality of the Jewish experience. Throughout their discussions, John will ask Asher provocative questions that congregants wish they could ask their rabbis.
