And I think that for Jews, it's been such a successful home, such a welcoming home, that there is definitely a cognitive dissonance involved in saying, here, pluralism, there, stay based on religious identity or ethnic identity. And I think that that contradiction, especially for young people, is leading people to reject the idea of Zionism.

Yes. I think that that's one of the best arguments for a two-state solution is that it's bad for – obviously bad for Palestinians but also bad for Israelis to be in the position of occupying other people and holding them down. Trevor Burrus, Jr. : Jabotinsky said that a Jewish state has to have a Jewish majority.

And in fact, what you have now there is not a Jewish majority in the whole land, a Jewish majority only in the part that's the state of Israel.

: Right. So it's sort of an artificially maintained Jewish majority. But I do think that there's no other country in the world for whom their politics and their conduct of war leads to the judgment, this country should be wiped off the map. This country should not exist. It would be hard to have worse politics and worse conduct of war than Russia, right, over the last two years.

And I think that it has to do with the very unique role that Jews and Judaism play in Western civilization and also the recency and precariousness of the country of Israel, that it's a country where you can imagine it not existing in a generation. I think that that would be an unacceptable price to pay.
