Two Views From Hebron

By Daniel Treiman May 1, 2008

The Jewish Press and Jewschool this week offer two very different takes on the situation in Hebron. The Jewish Press article is by a 19-year-old American Jewish seminary student who went to spend the Sabbath with the holy city’s Jewish community. The Jewschool post is written by a young Jew who traveled to Hebron with a group of activists to show solidarity with the city’s Palestinian population.

A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen

Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda

At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
