10@9 Rachel and Jon Goldberg-Polin Respond - August 22, 2024

This morning I share part of an interview from Daniel Gordis speaking to Rachel and Jon Goldberg-Polin, parents of Hersh - seriously wounded and taken hostage on October 7. Rachel and Jon are perhaps the most visible and possibly the most impactful parents working tirelessly on the release of Hersh and all the other hostages in Gaza. Rachel and Jon respond, in the thoughtful and dignified way only they can, to the three reasons some people are against a deal to release hostage in exchange for a release of prisoners. Whatever your view, these words will touch your heart and challenge your mind.
