Abstract:

CLAL Faculty discusses the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and its effects on American Jewry. The inability to build consensus prompts many to disengage from the issue and the Jewish community. More important than consensus is honest debate and discussion that respectfully includes the wide range of opinions throughout the American Jewish population.
