Sara welcomes Liora Rez of stopantisemitism.org to discuss the harrowing hostage crisis at a Texas synagogue over the weekend. Sara and Liora discuss the dangerous habit of the media to jump to incorrect conclusions that fit a particular narrative and the FBI for claiming the motive for the gunman was unclear even though it was obvious why he targeted a synagogue.

Sara and Liora also highlight the training the synagogue leaders and other churches and congregations need to do to protect themselves if an attack happens there. Sara also shares a great story about being trained in Afghanistan about what to do if she were taken hostage – and how the training didn’t quite follow the script.
