Rich Siegel was raised Jewish and grew up as an ardent Zionist which propelled him to become the president of a student Zionist organization. He moved to Israel in his twenties and worked there for a while. A job offer brought him back to the US and led him to ultimately reject Zionism and become an activist for peace and justice for Palestinians. In 2008, Rich led a We Hold These Truths‘ Project Strait Gate vigil at a Christian Zionist church in Paramus, NJ assisted by Chuck Carlson, founder of WHTT. The pastor at the vigil church called him an antisemite! We think you will find Rich’s journey out of Zionism quite remarkable and inspiring in this video interview. You can read his article. “On Gaza & Being Jewish” below. Also, more about Rich can be found on our website. (Here)
