Reporters’ Roundtable: The Flotilla Fallout
The fallout from Israel’s deadly raid on a Gaza-bound flotilla is the subject of this week’s Forward Reporters’ Roundtable. Reporter Josh-Nathan Kazis, staff writer Gal Beckerman and news editor Larry Cohler-Esses explore whether or not the American Jewish communal response to the incident proves Peter Beinart’s thesis. They also discuss J Street’s reaction to the raid and if Israel’s recent use of force can be separated from the debate over the Gaza blockade.

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.
