The Shift in Perception after October 7th
The events of October 7th marked a pivotal moment in Jewish history, transitioning the outlook on safety and credibility towards a more precarious state. Many Jews had previously believed in a semblance of security and optimism, rooted in the post-Holocaust paradigm that suggested endless possibilities for the Jewish people. The atmosphere drastically shifted to one filled with vulnerability and confusion as the reality of ongoing threats became evident. This culminated in a shared sense of dislocation among both American and Israeli Jews, fundamentally altering their perspectives on identity and safety.
