What Must Be Done to Fight Antisemitism
(Jerusalem Report) Rabbi Shmuley Boteach interviewed by Joseph Scutts - Rabbi Shmuley Boteach is the author of over 30 books, including The Israel Warrior: Fighting Back for the Jewish State from Campus to Street Corner. He said that in the "four to five thousand messages that I get per day, the antisemitism is so extreme, the bile is so poisonous, the attacks are so personal, that I have seen a whole new side of the world that I had never seen before." "You're not going to change any of their minds and almost any of their followers' minds...so why debate them? The answer is that the Jews are watching, and right now we are a very frightened people. So when one Jew gets up on TV or on a video platform or on a podcast and shows that he or she is not going to be afraid of these guys and will debate with them, it sets an example. I may not change any minds, but I will demonstrate fearlessness."
