Since long before the Hamas terrorist attacks of October 7, some people have spread myths about Israel being the sole villain in the conflict with its neighbors, or Israel being a colonialist interloper that doesn’t belong in the region, or other similar sentiments designed to undercut the legitimacy of the Jewish state’s right to exist. We will explore the facts that counter the myths, and discuss the actual history of Israel, right up to the present and be prepared to respond to the antisemitic propaganda.
Open Q & A to follow.
