The killing of 1,200 Israelis on Octo­ber 7, 2023, by Hamas mil­i­tants becomes a hor­ri­ble crime that chal­lenges the core of Rabbi John Rosove’s beliefs. For months, he finds him­self lost in doubt and grief and, yes, a desire for revenge. In the end, as the tragedy of Gaza unfolds, his brave voice does not waver in its deter­mi­na­tion to see peace and social jus­tice come to the Mid­dle East, for the chil­dren of Pales­tine and Israel.

Rabbi Rosove and WHC Rabbi Sue Shankman will discuss the challenges facing the American Jewish community since October 7.
