Reporters’ Roundtable: Why Israelis Dislike Americans
In this week’s podcast, host Josh Nathan-Kazis is joined by Forward opinion editor Gal Beckerman and Washington correspondent Nathan Guttman to discuss why America’s foreign military aid to Israel is threatened by the Congressional super-committee’s failure to come to a debt deal. Then the group turns to a recent series of advertisements produced by the Israeli government warning Israelis not to marry Americans. Finally, the group is joined by Forward fellow Naomi Zeveloff and web producer Nate Lavey to talk about a recent wedding expo targeted specifically for Jews and the media circus that it spawned.

In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
