Armin Rosen Tablet, Aug. 2, 2022 The Hudson Valley Resort and Spa rests on a gentle slope facing the near-distant curtain of mountain where the wilderness finally begins. Only the softest pinch of loss intrudes into the landscape’s tranquil domes of spotlit green and emerald shadow. “We’re gonna dedicate rooms to the old hotels that […]
Amarachi Amadike National Post, July 7, 2022 Decades after his execution in Israel for crimes against humanity, newly unearthed audio recordings of Adolf Eichmann reveal how the architect of the Holocaust described his role in organizing the “Final Solution.” For the first time, the Nazi war criminal, who maintained at his trial that he was […]
Ruth Franklin Ghost Stories, July 4, 2022 I haven’t been able to hit 1000 words every day since then, since I’m balancing the writing with research, including trips to Columbia’s Rare Books and Manuscripts Library to read through Otto Frank’s correspondence with his editors at Doubleday and to the Center for Jewish History for letters […]
Simi Horwitz Forward, Aug. 9, 2022 Director-composer Stephen Edwards says he is drawn to “ordinary people doing extraordinary things.” So, when he came across the virtually unknown story of “Syndrome K” and the Italian doctors who concocted this wholly invented disease in order to save Italian Jews during World War II, he knew he had […]

Joel Petlin Newsweek, Aug. 12, 2022 “There are wrong ways and right ways to talk about George Soros and other Jews in the news.” We should all be extremely sensitive to the dehumanizing language used by antisemites, and the discrimination and even violence that often comes from it. Antisemitism must always be denounced evenhandedly, whether […]
James Kirchick Tablet, Aug. 10, 2022 “The question before us today is whether, in the course of criticizing activities that the country’s biggest progressive donor has undertaken “transparently” (his word), it is possible to even utter his name without being accused of bigotry.” Two weeks ago, George Soros took to the op-ed pages of the […]
George Soros WSJ, July 31, 2022 “The most rigorous academic study, analyzing data across 35 jurisdictions, shows no connection between the election of reform-minded prosecutors and local crime rates.” Americans desperately need a more thoughtful discussion about our response to crime. People have had enough of the demagoguery and divisive partisan attacks that dominate the […]
Karl Rove WSJ, July 20, 2022 “Mr. Boudin was ousted with 60% of the vote by San Franciscans fed up with feces and needles on their streets, a rising tide of hate crimes against Asian-Americans, and frequent brazen snatch-and-grab thefts everywhere from pharmacies to luxury stores.” Give George Soros his due. He knows how to get political […]

Ali al-Awar and Yohanan Tzoreff INSS Insight No. 1631, Aug. 15, 2022 “Fatah is in urgent need of renewal, a change of image, and of revived legitimacy.” The decision by Abu Mazen to cancel the elections for the Palestinian Legislative Council and the presidency, scheduled for May 2021, may one day prove to be a […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Aug. 12, 2022 “Yet when the situation was discussed at the U.N. Security Council, the first two states that made peace with Israel—Egypt and Jordan—echoed some of the vitriolic rhetoric spewed at the Jewish state by the Palestinian Authority representative.” Which of these two things is more important when it comes to […]
Avi Issacharoff Ynet News, Aug. 11, 2022 “Gaza rulers “smell blood” in the West Bank, where the weakened PA is embroiled in corruption and internal battles over who will be Abbas’ successor.” On Tuesday morning, shortly after three Palestinians were killed in a counterterrorism operation in the West Bank city of Nablus, a Hamas spokesman […]
Khaled Abu Toameh Jerusalem Post, Aug. 13, 2022 “The Palestinian security forces stay in their headquarters when the Israeli Army enters the Palestinian areas. They don’t do anything to defend the people. In the eyes of many Palestinians, the Palestinian Authority’s role has been limited to issuing traffic tickets, carrying out some arrests and collecting […]
