Among the possible actions, Susskind notes that the US can "condition aid to Israel on whether the Israeli government is effectively curbing settlement expansion and policing settler violence." | |

NJN Director of Programs Maxxe Albert-Deitch was recently featured in a panel conversation on intra-Jewish communal violence, following a showing of November 4th, a new musical about the political assassination of Yitzhak Rabin. Alongside Rabbi Amalia Mark, Dr. Debra Shushan, and "Two Jews, Three Opinions" founder Jenna Fischer, Maxxe unpacked her experiences of hostility within the Jewish community around the topic of Israel and Palestine over the past two years - and how that environment differs from the pre-October-7th conversation. Each showing of November 4th is followed by a talkback or panel, tying the 1995 events that the show covers together with the current, 3-years-later geopolitical realities of the Israel-Palestine conversation. | |
