  • Very Thought Provoking

    Just discovered this recently. I have only listened to the most recent podcast on Israeli Exceptionalism.

    Many interesting/t, houghtful observations.

    I have tried to interest others I know here in America with an interest in Israel today/now.

    Regrettably, most are persuaded that they already know enough.

Q: Why should we take theology seriously? What's Jewish about theology?

When Decolonization Is a Metaphor
Q: Do you find any virtue in the descriptive rather than the prescriptive claims of settler colonialism?

When Decolonization Is a Metaphor
Q: Can you tell us how exactly the idea to write this book came about?
The idea emerged after the October 7 attack, where many were discussing Israel in terms of settler colonialism, noting that this term began to influence public political debate significantly.
Time and Space in the Thousand-Year Reich
Q: How do you approach the sources with this in mind?
