When I was in college at the University of Pennsylvania in the 1980’s, I went to a speech given by the controversial, Jewish extremist at the time, Rabbi Meir Kahane, a founder of the Jewish Defense League (JDL). Rabbi Kahane, an orthodox rabbi and lawyer originally from New York, proposed the forcible deportation of all Arabs from Israel to create a purely Jewish state there. His views were considered to be abhorrent by mainstream Jews. However, he was known to be a passionate speaker, and while a number of students protested his appearance on campus, many others were curious to hear what he had to say and how he could defend such an inhumane policy.
