We look at whether there is a shift within the Jewish community against Israel’s actions and policies. Israel’s war on Gaza rages on, now in its sixth month, causing mass devastation and resulting in the deaths of more than 31,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children.

We’ve seen people being turned away at the checkpoint for this reason, and Israeli soldiers are surrounding the nearby area. There are additional restrictions on Palestinians leaving Al-Aqsa. […]
