Reporters’ Roundtable: Justice for bin Laden; BDS on Campus
In this week’s podcast, the panel looks at whether or not Osama bin Laden should have been put on trial, like the Nazi lieutenant colonel Adolf Eichmann was, back in 1961. The second topic is the potency — or lack thereof — of the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement on American college campuses. Forward editor Jane Eisner and opinion editor Gal Beckerman join host Josh Nathan-Kazis.
Lastly, in our regular segment, “The Best Jewish Story That Didn’t Make the Paper,” Josh discusses reports that the powerful Kabbalist Rabbi Yoshiyayu Yosef Pinto has accepted an invitation to travel to Syria.

I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
