You have a guy reading someone's bullet points (already suspect) created by an unknown at Boston College (?) and also he's interjecting his own words like 'and zionism!' while reading when it isn't even on the bullet points.

You'll find history interesting and easy to look up: A man named Bomberg prints for Christians and jews, including the Talmud in his 'Hebrew printing press'. It contains many errors. The Fifth Latern Council stepped in with censorship, removing objectionable passages as the Church sought to eliminate perceived blasphemies, errors, or anti-Christian content while allowing scholarly use.

The Tridentine Index (Pius IV, 1564) listed the Talmud among prohibited Jewish books until "corrected" by authorities, per Rule 7 (conditional bans on useful but dangerous works). This targeted "superstitious writings... the Talmud and other Jewish books."

Talmud Burning: Under Julius III, after disputations (e.g., Rome 1553), thousands of Talmuds—including Bomberg copies—were confiscated and burned in Italy,

Many bridges have been mended since then:

‘Nostra Aetate’: 60 years of fostering understanding in Jewish-Catholic relations - JNS.org https://www.jns.org/nostra-aetate-60-years-of-fostering-understanding-in-jewish-catholic-relations/

(Jan. 26, 2025 / JNS) This year marks the 60th anniversary of the signing of Nostra Aetate—a historic milestone that deserves recognition for its profound significance in fostering mutual understanding and combating antisemitism, especially in the Catholic world.

Latin for “In Our Time,” the declaration of the Second Vatican Council, an ecumenical council of the Catholic Church, revolutionized the church’s position and attitude toward Judaism and the Jewish people, ending the ubiquitous “deicide” slander claiming that Jews killed Jesus Christ, official attempts to convert Jews and stressing the bonds and roots between the Jewish and Catholic faiths.

As we celebrate the fruits of this foundation, Nostra Aetate continues to resonate in efforts to combat prejudice and promote peace. Its legacy reminds us that true interfaith cooperation rests on recognizing shared values, mutual respect and a commitment to truth and justice.

On 31 August 2017, representatives of the Conference of European Rabbis, the Rabbinical Council of America, and the Commission of the Chief Rabbinate of Israel issued and presented the Holy See with a statement entitled Between Jerusalem and Rome. The document pays particular tribute to the Second Vatican Council's Declaration Nostra aetate, whose fourth chapter represents the Magna Charta of the Holy See's dialogue with the Jewish world. Between Jerusalem and Rome does not hide the theological differences that exist between the two faith traditions while all the same it expresses a firm resolve to collaborate more closely, now and in the future.

Pope Francis' Amoris laetitia or The Joy of Love, addresses the issue of interfaith marriages. While marriages of Catholics to non-Catholics are viewed as "mixed marriages", Francis calls marriages to non-Christians, including Jews, "a privileged place for inter religious dialogue." Piero Stefani, a scholar at the Facoltà Teologica del Nord Italia, a Church-owned institute, noted, "The Church is no longer endorsing a policy of missionary conversion, especially toward Jews. So interfaith marriages are seen as an 'opportunity' to start a positive dialogue [about faith] with the non-Catholic spouse, rather than an occasion to convert him or her." ["Pope Francis Just Made It a Little Easier for Catholics to Marry Jews". Haaretz. April 10, 2016.] Intermarriage of Jews is rare in Israel and among the Orthodox. In the U.S., ["The Jewish fear of intermarriage". BBC, 7 February 2014]. Jewish intermarriage is common, and those who do intermarry with someone of a different religion are more likely to marry a Catholic than a mainline Protestant.

Nostra Aetate does not explicitly mention or take a position on the Talmud. Verify it for yourself in the original document. https://www.vatican.va/archive/hist_councils/ii_vatican_council/documents/vat-ii_decl_19651028_nostra-aetate_en.html

indeed "Between Jerusalem and Rome does not hide the theological differences that exist between the two faith traditions "

Those that enter mixed marriages really do need to enter dialogue especiallly on the upbringing of children.
