In "Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza: A Reckoning," Peter Beinart challenges American Jews on their support for Israel, stating that it reflects a moral blindspot. He advocates for a single state solution that ensures equal rights for all, amidst the destruction in Gaza. Beinart critiques the narratives that allow Jews to remain passive while witnessing human rights violations. He reflects on his own journey from pro-war stances to focusing on the complexities of U.S.-Israel relations, suggesting younger Jews are shifting perspectives on Israel's role.
It's about the story that enables our leaders, our families, and our friends to watch the destruction of the Gaza Strip and shrug, if not applaud.
The book argues that many American Jews defending Israel have lost their moral bearings, urging a push for equal rights in a single state.
