We need to talk about Zionism
JVL Introduction
IN this edition of The Listening Post on Al Jazeera, Richard Gizbert looks at the common – and dangerous – conflation of Anti-Zionism with antisemitism in the media and in political life today.
He invites Professors Avi Shlaim, Sherene Seikaly and Bernard Avishai to reflect on the history of Zionism before having a conversation with Simone Zimmerman, a co-founder of IfNotNow, about the rebellion against Zionism among young Jews in the United States today.
