Conflict and Identity, Rav Hanan's article in French
Pour un monde plus humain 6 Religions les lieux et les noeuds du dialogue
“Somewhere on a little piece of farmland in the West Bank, wedged between a cluster of Jewish settlements in the Gush Etzion bloc, there is a small wooden shack where unlikely friendships are blossoming. Here, Palestinians and settlers are defying the expectations and meeting as equals, with hopes for a better future...”
"Any of us who pay attention to the politics of the Arab-Israeli conflict know that both sides are stuck in a cycle of intransigence that seems to have no light at the end of its tunnel.

Op-ed written by Rabbi Matt Gewirtz of Congregation B'nai Jeshurun in Short Hills, New Jersey.

We need someone to say that there is a partner for peace and we need to go and speak to them." An interview with Shaul Judelmen
