Fogel said he doesn't believe the trends in public opinion are irreversible.

"Without a doubt, it's of deep concern," he said. "But here's the thing. As the millennials and Gen Zers and so forth mature, they will be confronted increasingly with some of the anomalies of what they had thought was the case. So, for example, the young LGBTQ community, seeing itself as part of the struggle for greater equality and empowerment and freedom, have gravitated towards this particular camp.

"But as they have to confront the inconsistencies — how, for example, somebody from the LGBTQ community living in Gaza doesn't really have much of a future, contrasting that to pride festivals in Tel Aviv on an annual basis. Different groups that have identified with these progressive voices will be challenged to rationalize them.

"I can only be hopeful that as their experience deepens, they are going to appreciate in a much more sophisticated way the problems inherent in that simplistic view of the world as being divided in a binary way between the oppressed and the oppressor, the victims and the victimizers."

"Wait, you're telling me there's no Pride parades in Gaza? I guess they should all die then"
