from Talking Tachlis Podcast · host Talking Tachlis Podcast
Last week, Americans for Peace Now held a Yitzhak Rabin 25-Year Memorial Event, remembering the Israeli politician, statesman, and general, 25 years after his assassination. US Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a rising star in the progressive wing of the Democratic party, had been scheduled to attend the commemoration, but withdrew after backlash from journalists and Palestinian civil rights groups. Uri and Rivky ask, why did AOC decide not to participate? Was she wrong? And fundamentally, is there room for Zionism in the progressive world?
