Peter, I really appreciate how you conduct this interview. You're extremely polite on your push backs, but the point was made how Joshua views are, in most part, build in emotional perceptions and they don't hold to much scrutiny. It's unfortunate as I used to respect a lot of his takes on occupation and zionism. I get views change but but one must eloquently defend it without resorting to cliques.

Perhaps too gentle? Did Leifer really say that the future of Judaism would be one with the future of Israel? That in the future Jews would live in Israel and nowhere else? Doesn't this clash entirely with 500 years of survival in the diaspora?
