Beyond the Pale: Disagreeing about Israel

How can we disagree with each other about ‘the Israel Question’ while maintaining a dialogue? Is it possible to dissent from the communal voice and remain part of the ‘community’? In this session, we’ll hear from people – all firmly committed to the Jewish community – who disagree with the ‘mainstream Jewish voice’ on Israel and from those who represent that mainstream voice, as they attempt to find ways to constructively discuss this difficult issue.
