Russ Roberts, an American economist and author who now lives in Israel, reflects on the transformative impact of the 10/7 Hamas attack and how it’s reshaped his perspective on Israeli society.

As the president of Shalem College in Jerusalem, he believes that open discourse is the heart of quality education and helps shape future leaders for a democratic society.
