A Father’s Daughter

I am a Jew, a journalist and a professor, but I also am an anguished and proud father. Last month, my wife and I welcomed our daughter back to Los Angeles for her annual visit to observe the High Holidays with our family. She will not be coming home. Home for her is Israel, where she has lived for 23 years.

We hope to talk about things other than the subject, but who\’s kidding whom? After all, we are Jews. Inevitably, we will banter about politics, be it the wackiness of California\’s recall election or the tragedy of Israel\’s dead-end policy in the territories.
