Being Jewish after the Destruction of Gaza. A Conversation with Peter Beinart

Peter Beinart is professor of journalism and political science at CUNY. He is also a contributing opinion writer for the New York Times, a political commentator on MSNBC, and editor-at-large of Jewish Currents. Over the years he served as editor of the New Republic and wrote for publications like the Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, Die Zeit, and the Financial Times. He is the author of four books including The Icarus Syndrome: A History of American Hubris (Harper, 2010) and The Crisis of Zionism (Times Books, 2012). His latest book, Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza: A Reckoning (Knopf, 2025) argues for a new concept of Jewish identity that links Israeli and Palestinian safety and places equality above supremacy.
