Views
Levy is critical of Israeli occupation of Palestinian lands, labeling such treatment "nondemocracy." He has criticized Israeli political leaders' "pursu[it of] a Jewish ethnocratic state at the expense of a Jewish democratic state."
Regarding his motivations in creating J Street, in 2009, he told The Guardian: "What we had a hunch about, and was proven when J Street was launched, is that there is this very large constituency of Jewish Americans who do care about Israel and who are cool identifying themselves as pro-Israel. But their pro-Israelness is about the need for Israel to be at peace with its neighbours to gain security, not by being an ongoing expansionist presence. In fact, that endangers Israel."Levy has publicly expressed concern about the "abuse" and weaponization of the accusation of antisemitism in the context of public discourse about Palestinian and Israeli politics.
He expressed criticism of the Israeli government's actions during the 2023 Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, underscoring "the unconscionable and growing cost in civilian life" and the lack of a coherent political vision related to Israel's ongoing military actions. He also simultaneously called for a renewal of Palestinian leadership to be more "inclusive," pointing to the need to incorporate Hamas into the Palestinian Authority.
Despite being involved with the peace process himself earlier in his career, Levy has harshly criticized the recent history of diplomatic approaches to Israel for lacking enforcement mechanisms and consequences for rights violations. He expressed concern that the peace process has become "the refuge of scoundrels who want to maintain the status quo."
= Criticism
=Levy's public statements and activities have been criticized in conservative media outlets such as The Washington Examiner and Jewish News Syndicate, including by reporter James Kirchick, and by the Middle East Forum. Critics question his perspective on historical events and perceived lack of support for Israel.
