The Forward Roundtable
Forward reporter Josh Nathan-Kazis sits down with colleagues Gal Beckerman, a staff writer, and Larry Cohler-Esses, the news editor, to discuss President Obama’s push for new U.N. sanctions against Iran. They weigh in on which trade-offs will be necessary to get Russia and China to support the sanctions, the coded language that Jewish leaders use when discussing how to curtail Iran’s nuclear ambitions and to what extent the Iran issue and the Israeli-Palestinian peace process are linked.

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
