Elisha Wiesel: The Alarming Return of Antisemitism | Greta Wire

Is the world losing its ability to recognize evil?

Greta Van Susteren is joined by Elisha Wiesel, son of the late Holocaust survivor and Nobel Peace Prize recipient Elie Wiesel, for a powerful discussion about antisemitism, Israel and the lessons of history.

Wiesel explains why he believes the reaction following the October 7 Hamas attack exposed deeper divisions, including among American Jews. He discusses Israel’s war against Hamas, campus protests, the accusation of genocide against Israel and what he sees as a failure by younger generations to recognize the reality of evil.

Wiesel also addresses his public disagreement with former President Barack Obama over Israel, reflects on his father’s famous warning that “neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim,” and recounts deeply personal memories of visiting his father’s hometown and Auschwitz.

Plus, Wiesel shares the remarkable story behind Elie Wiesel’s love for America after U.S. forces liberated him at Buchenwald and why he sees reasons for hope in a new generation responding to antisemitism.
