Tobin JNS, May 6, 2025 “What does matter is how acts of almost casual Jew-hatred like this are becoming commonplace.” An incident involving college students at a bar owned by a celebrity best known for sports betting and reviewing pizza isn’t the sort of thing you’d expect to go down as a pivotal […]

Brendan O’Neill Spiked, Apr. 30, 2025 “Kneecap are now saying they’ve never supported Hamas or Hezbollah. Waving a movement’s flag and reading its books is a weird way to show you don’t support it.” The woke left loves a good censoring.

Ben Cohen JNS, Apr. 25, 2025 “Israel’s very existence, and not its policies, continues to be the primary complaint of its adversaries.” As we mark the 80th anniversary of the Allied victory over Nazi Germany and the liberation of the concentration camps, that terrible chapter of history no longer seems so distant. While there are […]
David Swindle Algemeiner, May 5, 2025 “To explain for the drop in right-wing incidents, the report’s authors suggested that “amid widespread and intensive media coverage of the Israel-Hamas war and related protests, political activity, and antisemitism – typical of far-left and Islamist circles – relatively less coverage is dedicated to far-right antisemitic incidents.”” Global antisemitism […]

Ya Libnan Yalibnan, May 5, 2025 “Most of the world’s 1.2 million Druze live in Syria, Lebanon, Israel, and Jordan, while diaspora communities in the Americas and Australia remain closely linked to their ancestral homelands through enduring transnational ties.” Syria’s Druze community is facing one of the most violent internal eruptions in years, with over 40 […]
Bradley Martin Newsweek, Mar. 7, 2025 “Is it any wonder why Druze in Syria are increasingly looking to Israel for sanctuary?” There is no reason to believe that the situation of Druze and other minorities will improve following the ouster of Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad.
