Susie Linfield Quillette, Nov. 18, 2023 “In recent years, the Left’s embrace of terror seemed to have ebbed; you won’t find many defenders of al-Qaeda, ISIS, the Taliban, or Boko Haram. The notable exception has been groups devoted to the destruction of Israel: Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Hezbollah, all of which still garner enthusiasm and deluded […]

Jake Wallis Simons Spiked, Dec. 23, 2023 “Fascinating research by two German economic historians, Nico Voigtländer and Hans-Joachim Voth, has revealed that areas of Germany in which people burned Jews at the stake in the 14th century, blaming them for the Black Death, were more likely to vote for the Nazis 600 years later. This is […]
Joel K. Greenberg Tablet, Dec. 18, 2023 “I asked him if he remembered when our rabbi believed that calling for the destruction of Israel from the synagogue pulpit was acceptable, and whether he understood that the synagogue had invited these poisonous ideas and organizations into our Jewish communal space—and in this way should be seen as, in fact, having participated in […]
Joshua Muravchik WSJ, Dec. 22, 2023 “There is no escaping the reality that the end of Israel could only mean the death of millions of its Jews. The fulfillment of anti-Zionism means nothing less than a second Holocaust.” Some say that anti-Zionism isn’t tantamount to antisemitism. If so, it’s worse. Antisemitism always stings, […]
JP Editorial Jerusalem Post, Dec. 24, 2023 “Back in 2017, during the first few months of Donald Trump’s presidency, American media outlets reported on every single cemetery that was desecrated with swastikas or any bomb threat against Jewish institutions. Suddenly, six years later, a bomb threat against a synagogue isn’t breaking news anymore, and antisemitic flyers […]

Daniel Koren National Post, Dec. 13, 2023 “… when a student asked the university why — at a time of intense antisemitism — it was hosting an event with a speaker who also justified the indiscriminate murder of innocent Israeli civilians and tourists, McMaster’s response was that it was “committed to protecting” the speaker’s “expression.”” […]
Barbara Kay Toronto Sun, Dec. 21, 2023 “One of their specious dogmas insists that the only good Jew is the Jew who loathes Israel. Thus, leftist Jews scramble pathetically to please their ideological masters with precious burnt offerings like their dead grandmothers.” I hope, after I have shuffled off this mortal coil, that none […]
Rex Murphy National Post, Dec. 9, 2023 “The current rampage of obviously orchestrated and scary (ask any Jewish Canadian) manifestations has so far received not a fraction of the invective Justin Trudeau loosed upon the truckers.” It is very hard, indeed it may be impossible, to disagree with the flood of online remarks asserting […]
Andrew Phillips Toronto Sun, Dec. 15, 2023 “During the current conflict Muslim MPs, including Liberals, spoke out in favour of a ceasefire before the government shifted its position. And a group representing Muslim donors to the Liberal party, called Network 100, publicly withdrew its support because the government had not heeded those calls for a ceasefire.” […]

December 7, 2023 Doris Strub Epstein We watched with disbelief and horror at the massive rallies that erupted in every major city across Canada following the savage invasion of Israel by Hamas. Under the guise of being “pro-Palestinian,” these rallies are hotbeds of genocidal antisemitism. They advocate for the annihilation of the Jewish State, cheer […]

Bret Stephens NY Times, Oct. 19, 2023 “Where does all this hatred come from? If your answer is Israel, then, to borrow a line I once heard from Leon Wieseltier, you aren’t explaining antisemitism; you’re replicating it.” This will be my last column for the year, and it will be more personal than most. It’s […]
Daniel Ben-Ami Spiked, Dec. 18, 2023 ‘We are not talking about the replacement of the [founding] charter. The charter was a historical document dating back to the origins of Hamas.” German and Danish police have uncovered a Hamas terrorist plot to attack Jewish targets in Europe. This is potentially yet more evidence, if any were […]
