Martin Gomberg - Interfaith Wolverhampton

Celebrating Wolverhampton

Sunday, 7 September 2025 - 22 minutes

It should never be forgotten that the situation in Gaza grew out of a terrorist attack on 7th October 2023 by Hamas that killed over 1,200 men, women and children - also taking over 250 hostages.

Is, though, the reaction by the State of Israel a disproportionate reaction? Many would say so. That has led to a rise in anti-semitism (the hatred of Jews) despite the fact that the Jewish community is a separate entity to the State of Israel - and some Jews would say that the reaction 'is not in my name'.

Martin Gomberg of Interfaith Wolverhampton joined Chris Allen and Gurpri Bains live on WCR FM to discuss these sensitive issues. Martin has a wealth of wisdom that has shaped religious education in Wolverhampton, and has the honour of leading the Kaddish prayer on Holocaust Memorial Day, remembering all acts of genocide.
