Last Friday evening Ari Shavit, Haaretz columnist and author of My Promised Land, began WHC’s Congregational Conversation, and shared his vision of what Israel needs to do to help bring about peace.
Nearly 1,000 worshippers attended the Shabbat service in Kaufmann Sanctuary where Mr. Shavit spoke about the recent massacre in Har Nof, increasing attacks in Jerusalem, and a realistic concept for peace based on an alliance between America, Israel, and moderate Arabs. Mr. Shavit continued the discussion in a dialogue with Rabbi Lustig at a sold-out dinner in Edlavitch Hall.
