On October 8, 2009 at the 92nd Street Y, two of the nation’s most provocative voices on issues surrounding Judaism and the Middle East conflict, Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz and talk radio host Dennis Prager, debated “The Left, the Right and Judaism in America.” Prager leaves no room for misinterpretation on where he stands by declaring, “there is something wrong with your moral barometer if you’re anti-Israel.” Dershowitz agrees with that of course, but makes a more nuanced argument for the liberal support of Israel. Watch the video excerpt above.

Dershowitz returns on November 21 for a debate with Jeremy Ben-Ami, executive director of J Street, on American Foreign Policy and Israel. Eliot Spitzer will be the moderator. Browse more upcoming lectures of Jewish interest.
