Edwin and special guest Ken Abramowitz join USF Hillel for their Welcome-Back-to-Campus Shabbat, to include an insider briefing for students on Israel, the Hamas War, International Law, and Antisemitism.

Jewish people across the world have long wondered when and where the next Kishinev, Kristallnacht, or Farhud would occur. The answer (as we correctly speculated during our June 2023 Farhud Remembrance show) was Israel. It happened on October 7, 2023, as Israelis were wrapping up their Sukkot celebrations. Some 2,000 Hamas fighters attacked, killing and raping innocent civilians, kidnapping grandmothers and children, and live-streaming their barbarous acts. Violent pro-Palestinian—and outright pro-Hamas—demonstrations have erupted everywhere, from campuses to streets. Jews across America are beginning to ask the unthinkable question and ponder the unthinkable prospect: can it happen again—this time in America?

Holocaust education leader Yossie Hollander, eminent civil rights attorney Nathan Lewin, and crusading Brandeis Center President Alyza Lewin join Edwin for part three of the discussion that nobody ever wanted to have (part one; part two), with special reports by Alan Dershowitz and Juda Engelmayer.

USF Hillel welcomes Edwin for a Solidarity Shabbat, at which he will answer any and all questions about Israel.

Edwin presents a lunchtime briefing to USF faculty on the Israel-Hamas War.

Edwin presents his lecture on the historical underpinnings of Israel and International Law for USF facult

Edwin visits USF for 3 compelling events: a faculty briefing on the Israel-Hamas War; a faculty lecture on Israel and International Law, and, in the evening, a Solidarity Shabbat at USF Hillel.

Edwin lays out the history of Israel and its intersection with international law.

On October 7, some 2,000 Hamas terrorists invaded Israel. Atrocities ensued against innocent civilian children, women, and men. Scores were abducted into Gaza.

Israel has promised to utterly destroy Hamas and its infrastructure with an “unprecedented response.”

Are residents of Gaza innocent civilians? Or are they complicit in Hamas’s acts of barbarity?

Foreign policy analyst Josh Block and international legal expert Avi Bell join Edwin; Rachel Ehrenfeld, Juda Engelmayer, Francisco Gil-White, Walid Phares, Sharon Polsky, and Zalmi Unsdorfer provide additional reports from around the world.

On October 7, 1,000 Hamas terrorists invaded Israel. Atrocities ensued against innocent civilian men, women, and children. Scores were abducted into Gaza. Israel has declared war and promised to utterly destroy Hamas and its infrastructure with an “unprecedented response.”

Yossie Hollander, Nathan Lewin, and Alex Traiman join Edwin, with additional reports from John Hajjar, Walid Phares, Marina Rosenberg, and Dor Weiss.

Edwin Black traces the historical underpinnings of Israel and International Law, a deep dive that will completely reshape and revitalize one's understanding of Israel, the Mideast, the Arab-Israel conflict, and how international law does or does not intersect. This one presentation will change everything, and empower everyone who cares about Israel.
