Yid Vid: Israeli TV Makes Intermarriage Seem Funny, Grave

Posted by Daniel Treiman, March 12, 2008, 1:13 pm

This is a great report from Israel’s Channel 10 on intermarriage in America. The report offers an incisive outsider’s perspective on this sensitive issue that manages to be simultaneously funny and serious and offers a thoroughly human look at an American Jewish dilemma without proffering easy answers.

It was posted on YouTube late last year. The comments on the video’s YouTube page are interesting.

Hat tip: JTA’s Ami Eden.

I think my favorite part is that all the Hebrew blessings were subtitled -- in Hebrew, as if they couldn't possibly be understood in those CRAZY American accents.
