Jewish identity in some of their work," he continued. "They don't see it as an eith- er/or." Some readers are drawn to Chutzpah, which one re- viewer recently called "A declaration of independence for American Jews," be- cause it sanctions Jewish pride. Brad Hershfield, a rabbinic student at the In- stitute of Traditional Juda- ism said that "Chutzpah is the most prideful Jewish book since Meir Kahane wrote in the 1970s, but de- void of its violence and hostility." Chutzpah's bold asser- tions, and its discussions on anti-Semitism and the Holo- caust, have led to numerous discussions about the book's message. At a Friday night dinner at the UCLA Hillel in early fall, undergraduate and graduate students split on whether or not the book's implications were correct or even healthy for the Jewish community. "There are those who see in Dershowitz their spokes- man, their advocate, and their cheerleader," said Hillel Rabbi Chaim Seidler- Feller about a group of stu- dents more willing to accept their status as perpetual victims. "Dershowitz is ba- sically telling you not to think you are ever not the underdog, and you have to fight all the time." Other students, Rabbi Seidler-Feller explained, were put off by what ap- peared to be simplistic ex- planations for Jewish ideas and issues, and the framing of the current American Jewish experience around the Holocaust. "The bottom line for Der- showitz is the Holocaust. He makes it central in his book," said Rabbi Seidler- Feller. "He says we should accept [philosopher Emil] Fackenheim's 614th com- mandment — not to give Hitler a posthumous victo- ry. My question is, what has he done with the other 613?"
