SEATTLE — We had a sit-down interview with rabbi Daniel Weiner of Temple De Hirsh Sinai Monday, marking one year since the Oct. 7 terror attack on Israel.

Weiner went on the record, talking about the impact of the tragedy on Israel and Jewish communities around the globe. He reflected on the past year.

Now we have another voice, Jeff Siddiqui, community advocate and member of American Muslims of Puget Sound, to discuss the impact of war on Palestinians in Gaza from the eyes of our local Muslim community. 

Siddiqui shared a different perspective and a vision for a peaceful future.

Joyce Taylor: Could you have imagined a year ago that we would be where we are in the Israel-Hamas war today?

Siddiqui: Not in my wildest nightmares? No.

Taylor: What do you know of what’s happening on the ground there?
