Jews and everybody should pray for Israel to come to its senses. Jews and everybody else should be working to get the US government to stop supporting their genocidal (and suicidal) course. Israelis and Palestinians can live together in peace. Leadership cannot come from Israel right now, but the international community can make it possible and desirable for a permanent cease fire, exchange of hostages, and progress toward a two state arrangement based on the 1967 borders with reciprocal land swaps.
This is the only way to preserve a state with a Jewish majority.
Everybody has agency. The key to saving Israel from itself lies with a strong international response which, given current geopolitical realities, requires a change in US policy.
The crimes are on the US as much or more as they are on the state of Israel. Our government is the key to saving Israel. And it starts with a serious change in how Israel is “supported”.
Without a change in US policy, there will only be be further disasters that could engulf the entire region or even the world.
A beautiful reflection on a terrible situation. Thank you.

The past 50 years suggest otherwise.

Wow, it’s like the Palestinians have no agency whatsoever.
Thank you Noah. Going to share this with my congregation.
Praying does nothing. There are no gods.
