I was disappointed in this and other Bulwark podcasts that include discussion of the anti-Jewish/Israel/Zionist protests at Columbia and elsewhere and the Hamas war in Gaza. I am tired of non-Jews opining about what is and isn't anti-semtism or a pogrom or reminiscent of Nazism or anti-Zionism. Your characterizing the protesters holding a Pesach "seder" as welcoming to Jews is irony to the max. Part of that is because you don't have any context for what a seder is all about and why we have them every year. It's like only talking to white people about anti-Black racism. Please get folks on the pods like Einat Wilf, Barack Ravid, Allison Kaplan Somer, Noah Efron, Yonit Levy, Jonathan Freedland, Rabbi David Wolpe (he is a prominent rabbi who is at Harvard this year & was/is on the antisemitism committee there). I can also put you in touch with hostage family members who have spoken to US politicians from the President to Congresspeople. None of these people are screamers but are very knowledgeable about what actually happened in the Hamas massacre, the historical and political contexts. Many if not all are critical of the current Prime Minister.
