A year before, I had been a graduate student at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem studying politics and sociology. I had been there for almost six months fighting ISIS alongside Kurdish soldiers. “Go back to Israel and tell the Kurdish Jews in Israel that they are welcome back here in Kurdistan.” “The Jews and the Kurds, we are alone in the Middle East,” a fighter named Zagros told me as I was leaving Syrian Kurdistan. I dropped out of school to join the fight against tyranny. I learned much more than I had expected.
