Bring Them Home: The Struggle to Protect & Free Hostages in Gaza

The families and loved ones of the Israelis and foreign nationals taken hostage by Hamas terrorists have endured unrelenting fear and pain in the weeks since October 7. Children, parents and grandparents ripped from their homes, their location and welfare unknown. The anguish brought on by this horrific mass kidnapping is shared across Israel, across the J Street community and throughout the diaspora community around the world.
We were joined by Rachel Goldberg, the mother of 23-year-old Hersh Goldberg-Polin who was taken hostage by Hamas during their terror attack on the Supernova Music Festival. We also spoke with Dr. Gershon Baskin, a former Israeli hostage negotiator, as well as an Israeli-Palestinian peace activist and policy expert, with experience negotiating for the release of hostages from Hamas.
