An amazing week …
My new book released, we had excellent gatherings to discuss the book in New York, Washington DC, and Boston. And in light of religiously-related violence (and puerile filmmaking), there has been a good bit of media attention too.

"It is clear that the killing of over 1200 Israelis on October 7th of 2023 was unacceptable. But the killing of Palestinians after that
in the tens of thousands including women and children is not acceptable."
