In the early eighties, Brad Hirschfield moved from the suburbs of Chicago to the West Bank city of Hebron to join a fanatical Israeli sect determined to reclaim the Jewish state within it's Biblical boundaries. Looking back he says, "I'm very grateful frankly that I don't know whether my bullets found their mark" referring to when he fired weapons at human targets.
Nearly three decades later, Brad has backed away from Hebron and turned his back on the violence imposed by religious extremism in efforts to create a worldwide multi-faith conflict resolution initiative he refers to as "Bridge Building".
Brad Hirschfield is the author of You Dont Have To Be Wrong For Me To Be Right: Finding Faith Without Fanaticism, the Co-Host of Hirschfield & Kula: Intelligent Talk Radio and President of The National Jewish Center for Leadership and Learning.
