Bearing witness: Kibbutz Be’eri, Hamas and a world gone mad

“The Quad,” Ep. 2

In this week’s episode, members of “The Quad” (Fleur Hassan-Nahoum, Emily Schrader and Ashira Solomon) traveled to Be’eri, one of the kibbutzim in southern Israel that was the scene of the horrific massacre by Hamas on Oct. 7.

Co-host Vivian Bercovici (former ambassador of Canada to Israel) also speaks to the group from Toronto about the rise of antisemitism worldwide. “The Quad” asks the question of what to do in a world where atrocities are committed against Jews and they are either celebrated, denied or rationalized.
