New York Times Op Ed Columnist Bret Stephens to speak at Temple Beth El of Boca Raton on the State of Israel

What do the changes in Israel’s government mean for American Jews and Diaspora Jews around the world? How is the uptick in global antisemitism related to people’s perception of Israeli politics and Israeli leadership? How are we as Reform Jews supposed to feel about Israel? Join Bret Stephens in conversation with Rabbi Dan Levin to explore these important questions as Israel celebrates its 75th year of independence (Yom Ha’atzmaut - which celebrates the declaration of independence of the State of Israel in 1948).
