Listen now | Patinkin's Princess Bride Parallel: Gaza's Revenge Business | Actor Mandy Patinkin’s strong criticisms of Israel's military actions in Gaza, which he likens to his "Princess Bride" character's destructive pursuit of revenge. Patinkin argues that Israel's current policies, especially under Prime Minister Netanyahu, endanger Jewish safety worldwide and perpetuate a cycle of violence, leading to a severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza. He emphasizes that his critique stems from his deep Jewish identity and a moral appeal for global Jewish communities to reflect on the suffering of Palestinians.
