Role at the time: Rabbi, Temple Israel
Responding to
El-Sayed's cycle-of-violence framing rationalized the antisemitic attack or improperly shifted explanatory responsibility toward Israel and Jews.
"suggesting that violence against a synagogue in suburban Detroit could be understood through the lens of Israeli actions; offensive"
The criticism came from a rabbi at the attacked institution and directly opposed El-Sayed's causal framing.
Supports El-Sayed's continued defense, Rabbi Jen Lader's critique, and divided responses among Jewish voters.
