“Peace is a duet not a solo” - Rabbi Sacks was a wise man with many wise teachings that ring true decades later. Peace cannot be obtained if only one side desires it.

Tikkun olam involves the recognition that the world does need repair, rather than Stoic acceptance of ascetic denial.

Rabbi Sacks taught that anti-Semitism mutates over time, taking new forms but with the same core message: denying Jews the right to exist as a people. From religion to race to nationhood, hatred adapts, but its goal remains the same. Today, anti-Zionism, denying Israel’s right to exist is the new face of anti-Semitism.

Liberty is a tree with religious roots. Society cannot sever these roots and expect the tree to survive.

Because we’re not just bodies, but also minds; not just physical beings, but also spiritual beings; religious liberty is axiomatic and central to a free society.
