Sheera Frankel NY Times, Dec. 10, 2023 “If the left has lost mainstream support, Israel’s peace camp has been driven virtually underground.” Maya Mizrachi grimaced at the group of eight Israelis calling for peace with Palestinians in front of Israel’s military headquarters this month in Tel Aviv. A year ago, Ms. Mizrachi, 25, had […]

Walter Russel Mead WSJ, Dec. 16, 2023 “But what if there was a deep reform in Palestinian governance?” Travel is educational, and a week in Israel taught me two things. First, the conventional Beltway wisdom about Israeli politics is deeply flawed. Second, the gap between the Biden administration and Israel on the Palestinian question may […]
Nir Kipniss Jerusalem Post, Nov. 21, 2023 “The left of recent years has mostly been a figment of the right’s imagination.” We are witnessing a seismic shift, a significant upheaval, and a withdrawal from politics by many in Israel. Not only did the hearts of Israelis break on October 7th, but the worldviews of many […]
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 […]
