Excellent talk Andy. Forget the slogans, the 1 minute explainers and insta posts - read books, seek the truth and be honest with yourself and one another. It's so important to learn from, listen to and consider varied perspectives. Be well and thanks so much for sharing.

Since my son, Max Goldberg Liu, graduated from Bowdoin in 2011, I was thrilled that you gave a lecture there. I listened to you for many years at Congregation Beth Elohim, and was glad to listen to you again. Thank you for explaining so much of what I’m just beginning to understand about this trrrible time. I’m sharing the podcast with my family and friends and look forward to hearing more from you. Be well.

Thank you so much, Susan. I had forgotten about Max going to Bowdoin. Wishing you all well in these turbulent times.

very glad to have listened to your talk and look forward to future podcasts.

reading the college paper’s report reinforced the notion that support for israel, rightly or wrongly, is waning amongst the younger generation of both jews and non jews. my fear is israel will lose by winning.

That's the risk. We have to get a pause, dump Bibi, and get talking.

Please keep on speaking, enlightening, and challenging us, Rabbi. Loved the reminder to not reduce this to social media slogans and 1-minute explainers.
