Now out in JPSP! Behavioral economic experiments w/ Christians, Muslims, Hindus, and Jews in the U.S., Israel and Fiji show that belief in God can facilitate cooperation, even across religious divides! More about our work (co-led with @jeremyginges.bsky.social) below! psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?d...
During these terrible days of Israel’s genocide in Gaza , it’s easy to come to the false conclusion that conflict is inevitable and rests on deep differences such as attachment to different types of religious belief. The JPSP paper described by Mikey in this thread below is a nice antidote.

I don't know how my colleague Nathan Brown does it, but he produces one deeply thoughtful and extensive analysis of Israeli and Palestinian politics after another.
Here is one of the most recent, on the lack of realistic strategic direction in Israel:

Israeli Policy Is Divided Into Two Main Camps. Neither One Offers a Realistic Path Forward.
To exit the strategic cul-de-sac, Israeli leaders need to account for today’s political and diplomatic realities, as well as the limits of what military force can accomplish.

You can't tackle antisemitism by quietly disinviting individuals - especially if these people have a mass following. The "rotten apple" approach never works - especially if you're not even willing to say it's rotten. You need to talk about it, explain, educate.

After a two year campaign of genocidal violence, Israel has not succeeded in meeting any of its objectives. Hamas still holds power, almost half the hostages were killed (many by munitions from the IDF). The majority of those returned alive were returned in the November 2023 ceasefire.

Hamas’s statement, that Trump seemed to welcome, has flipped the script on Netanyahu. Essentially they have taken us back to the third stage of the last ceasefire agreement - the agreement Israel broke to avoid the very negotiations Hamas is calling for.

I look back on this post and see the “well done” was wildly overstated. @ispp-pops.bsky.social action in opposing Israel’s genocide in Gaza is welcome but it is shameful that clear statements of condemnation and clear calls for action were not made beforehand.
Well done to ISPP. It’s a painful statement for me to read, but it’s important to stand in clear opposition to genocide.
ISPP's Executive Committee has RETRACTED our August 2025 statement on Gaza and has released a new statement.

The genocide Israel is carrying out in Gaza will be a stain on Jewish identity for all time. It will involve a transformation of our conceptualization of who we are. We are now part of a collective that carried out a genocide.

I think many of us share this feeling of despair. The silence of governments, of friends, colleagues, communities is shocking still. Perhaps we are living in a different world to the one we imagined
I started watching the Torres interview but couldn't last more than a few minutes (before they even got close to discussing Gaza). Torres comes across as deeply creepy. The kind of person you're not sure what he's about and you really don't want to find out.

Israeli anti government protests that ignore the genocide in Gaza, that ignore the suffering of innocent civilians, are worse than no protests at all. They are signifiers of the very mentality, dare I say culture, that caused the genocide.

The pro Palestinian campus protests have been effectively silenced because the discourse of those protests made people feel uncomfortable. Meanwhile, it’s striking how comfortable and silent the same people seem to feel about the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Israel is starving children.
