Why Seth Rogen’s Anti-Israel Rant Matters

Seth Rogan told Marc Maron that support for Israel is outdated thinking. His opinion rests on a deep ignorance of the history of Israel and the Jewish people.

Seth Rogan’s total ignorance is typical of what results form the typical non-religious Jewish “education” in the United States. I know that because I grew up in that world. To put it in secular terms, it would be like if we took the comments of someone who has a kindergarten education seriously who was speaking about physics. Rogan (obviously) knows NOTHING. Which explains the entire generation of American, progressive, millennials with similar views about Israel. They know even less than even my anemically Jewishly educated generation.

This article makes that case incredibly well.

You Know The Talk Black Parents Have With Their Sons; You Never Heard Of The One Jews Have

Jew In The City makes engaging and meaningful Orthodox Judaism known and accessible to Jewish people, reversing negative associations about religious Jews.

Yes, yes and yes. This is exactly correct. As antisemitism has risen, I’ve been told more frequently than ever before that I “don’t understand” what minorities go through, because of my “white (or male) privilege.” That’s absolutely crazy, and I mean that literally, when the person you are talking to is Jewish.

We are the minority of minorities. We have been a minority everywhere we’ve been for millennia. Only since 1948 do we have a home. And we suffer everywhere we go. No matter how good a place is, how comfortable, how much we can thrive, each place always turns into a place of suffering for us. That isn’t melodrama: it’s history. So yes. We do have a talk too. Our talk is to remind our children that we are strangers and to live as Jews, means always being different. Personally, I am 100% ok with that. Like all Jews though, I’ve experienced what that means. Especially lately. I saw this originally on Facebook. The author calls herself “Jew in the City” and I highly recommend following her. I would love to have her on Moptu. However, the comments on this article were heartbreaking. Jews all over the United States are removing mezuzahs from their homes, they are scared to wear a Magen David (Star of David), take their kippahs off in public. The kind of stuff that everyone in the late 20th century was sure had been related to the last. But history teaches us that, when you’re Jewish, NOTHING is related to the past.

“I realized recently, with the uptick in antisemitic attacks and anti-Jewish content being shared online, and the tepid response the world has to it (despite being outraged when any other minority is mistreated), that many gentiles don’t understand the Jewish experience well enough. And perhaps it’s because we haven’t properly explained what it’s like to be a Jew.

“The confusion seems to be how Jews could be considered a minority and protected from hate speech when we seem to be doing pretty well. I recently touched on this issue when I wrote about the DeSean Jackson antisemitism scandal. I explained to a Black man I was speaking with that the lack of privilege that Jews have today is not in our skin color or our education or socioeconomic status – it’s in our security – or lack there of.


People may not realize this, but as Jews, we live with the constant anxiety and fear that we or one our loved ones could be subjected to a random antisemitic attack at any time, as well as the notion that while the U.S. has been a safe and gracious home for us for hundreds of years, one day, yet again, the tides will turn and we’ll have to flee.”

I can personally relate to every point in this article. From overt antisemitism to having to explain why I can’t eat the pepperoni pizza that my bosses brought in for everyone at work to eat, being a Jew means always being aware that you are different. The idea that we are just like everyone else in terms of the way we experience America, and everywhere else in the world outside of Israel, is totally absurd to any of us who have lived even a minimally connected Jewish life.
