New Heterodorx podcast! Episode 116: Episode 116: “Ask a Zionist” with Rabbi Jonathan Greenberg https://www.heterodorx.com/podcast/episode-116-ask-a-zionist-with-rabbi-jonathan-greenberg/
After last weeks “Ask an Anti-Zionist,” the Dorx return to Ask a Zionist, Rabbi Jonathan Greenberg. What is a Zionist? Answer: “A person who believes that the Jews have a right to self-determination and self-protection in the ancient land of Israel,” which is the historical, original, biblical, literal Jewish homeland. Greenberg does not suffer the discomfort with power and moral complexity that afflicts some. He reminds us every conceivable solution to “one of the most intractable conflicts on earth” has already been argued, and there is nothing new under the sun. “In every generation, they rise against us to destroy us.” Greenberg says Jews should arm up; culture matters; the rules of war are outdated; nobody actually cares about the Palestinians; media coverage is biased; history tells you what, philosophy tells you why; and Israel is not a colonial project, it’s a coming home. Nina asks: How will this end? Answer: ???
