Media shapes so much of how we think about the world. It informs our political beliefs, but also our values and attitudes towards all of life. And it certainly influences people's opinions about Jews, Israel and the war with Hamas.

This week I had the pleasure of Shmoozing with David Olesker. Originally from the UK, David  studied at Sunderland Polytechnic College. After making Aliyah to Israel in 1982, he worked with the World Zionist Organization’s Educational Resource Center, where he helped pioneer the application of informal education techniques to training advocates for Israel. In 1989, he founded an independent organization called ICAP in order to bring these techniques to a wider audience. JCCAT, the Jerusalem Center for Communications and Advocacy Training, builds on ICAP’s work to further refine and disseminate these techniques. He has worked with AIPAC, Jewish Federations, and Israeli diplomats across several ministries including the Ministry of Tourism and the Foreign Ministry.
