Statecraft with Avi Jorisch

Dara Horn: Is Plan B Fatalistic or Prudent - You Decide

Oct 6

"I'm probably not supposed to, but I will anyway."

Dara Horn is about to describe a meeting she has never discussed in public. Harvard's deans, in one room, and what she calls extremely disturbing.

It opens a conversation with the author of The Final Solution to the Jewish Question: A Love Story for the Living, a New York Times best seller. She argues that antisemitism is a lie, not just a hatred, and that the community has been fighting it with the wrong tool. She describes a coordinated effort to shape what AI believes about Jews. And when Avi Jorisch asks whether American Jews need a Plan B, she refuses the question.

She says the strategy is clear. Almost no one, she says, is pursuing it.

Statecraft with Avi Jorisch is a production of IEF. Conversations with the people shaping the destiny of Israel and the Jewish people.
