| Lunch in the Loop
|  Join us for lunch, learn about Sukkot and talk current events in Israel
Sukkot is coming up, and Miriam will be back to talk about the holiday and how it relates to some current issues:
Sukkot is all about shelter, as is Israel- a shelter for the Jews, before and after the Holocaust until today. So what is Israel's responsibility with regards to refugees from Darfur fleeing into Israel to escape genocide? Should they accept them? Many of the refugees have wound up in Israeli jails- is this ethical? What are the options?
