Judah Ari Gross Times of Israel, Apr. 6, 2022 “And so the hametz wars are seemingly now poised to claim their first victim: Israel’s 36th government.” It is an annual tradition in Israel to have a brutal food fight in the weeks before Passover — specifically, over the ban on bringing leavened goods, or hametz, […]
Lahav Harkov Jerusalem Post, Apr. 6, 2022 “While this looks like a recipe for an election, it is possible that not much will happen in the very short term, as the Knesset is scheduled for recess for more than a month. The coalition could decide to accept its fate and call an election, but if […]
Patrick Kingsley NY Times, Apr. 1, 2022 “To some witnesses and survivors of the most recent shootings in Bnei Brak, a city in central Israel, the attack by a West Bank Palestinian that killed five people there on Tuesday calcified the perception that Israel has no partner for peace among the Palestinians and that the creation of a Palestinian […]

Michal Bilewicz Haaretz, Mar. 24, 2022 “The paradox of Putin’s rhetoric is that he accuses Ukraine of “Nazism” while simultaneously using antisemitic tropes to stigmatize Russians who oppose his war and support Ukraine.” “Listen to what the Kremlin says. Just listen! Now the same words [Nazi terminology] are being used again, the Final Solution, but […]
Robert Horvath The Conversation, Mar. 21, 2022 “No less important is the role of neo-Nazis and other right-wing figures in Russia’s onslaught against Ukraine.” Many commentators have already debunked Russian President Vladimir Putin’s absurd claim to be waging war to “de-nazify” Ukraine. Some have pointed out the far right received only 2% of the vote in Ukraine’s […]
David Matas The Globe and Mail, Mar. 23, 2022 “Vladimir Putin’s Russia, despite its general repression, tolerates the Russian Imperial Movement, a neo-Nazi, antisemitic, armed white supremacist organization, designated by the U.S. as a terrorist entity. In their current invasion, the Russians have bombed, in Kyiv, Babi Yar, a site memorializing the mass killing of […]

That includes an updated law passed last month criminalizing antisemitic acts. Unfortunately, the law was intended to address a pronounced uptick in public displays of bigotry, including swastika-laden vandalism of synagogues and Jewish memorials, and eerie […]

In today’s update, the regulator said it had been […]
Melanie Phillips Israel National News, Mar. 18, 2022 “Russia’s top state-controlled energy company Rosatom is set to cash in on its $10 billion contract to expand Tehran’s Bushehr nuclear plant.” In his address to the U.S. Congress this week, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky told U.S. President Joe Biden in a plea for American air defenses against Russian […]
Hugh Hewitt Washington Post, Mar. 19, 2022 “The new version of appeasement is belatedly arming Ukraine while empowering Putin (and paying him indirectly) in the deal taking shape with Iran in Vienna.” Neville Chamberlain was a good man, though vain, and when he died, Winston Churchill — who replaced Chamberlain as British prime minister — eulogized […]
