Dion J. Pierre Algemeiner, Sept. 13, 2024 “… there is no “shared understanding” among scholars and experts, nor among its own community, about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that would make divestment from Israel as morally cogent as divesting from South Africa in the 1980s or, more recently, fossil fuels.” American universities are largely rejecting demands to […]

John Robson Epoch Times, Sept. 9, 2024 “In response to the arrest, RCMP Commissioner Mike Duheme said predictably that “there is no place for such ideological and hate-motivated crime in Canada.” But clearly there is, and not just because of these two arrests. Because of open advocacy for Hamas in our cities before large, supportive […]
Amelie Botbol JNS, Sept. 13, 2024 “I believe that the community of democracies including Canada does not understand the threat of Iran. The Iranian threat is seven-fold.

Avi Benlolo National Post, Sept. 6, 2024 “This extremism is not just shocking; it’s a clear indicator of how normalized hatred has become in academic settings.” University presidents and administrators must take responsibility for protecting Jewish students from the escalating antisemitism and violence that are increasingly prevalent on campuses across Canada and the United States. […]
Ian Coopet Algemeiner, Sept. 13, 2024 “… selling a nominal amount of weapons to Israel, which was fighting an existential war against Iranian-backed terrorists on multiple fronts, while trying to exert leverage to free civilian hostages, was somehow beyond the pale.” After nearly nine years under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Canada’s foreign policy […]

Gilead Ini CAMERA, Sept. 9, 2024 “… in a world where young people are increasingly clueless about what the Holocaust was, it may be more useful to look at Albanese’s more precise affronts, especially (but not limited to) her comments related to the massacre of October 7.” When Holocaust denier Gilad Atzmon wrote a book about the evils of […]

I make no […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Sept. 12, 2024 “… no matter who you plan to vote for in November or what you think of Harris and Trump, the collapse of media credibility must be seen as a potentially lethal threat to American democracy and Jewish life.” Believe it or not, journalists are not at the bottom […]

Prof. Efraim Inbar JISS, Sept. 8, 2024 “Political engineering by outsiders is doomed to fail in the Middle East. Therefore, an active interventionist European foreign policy to move societies into a democratic track is unlikely to produce positive results.” Europe borders the Middle East, and the continent cannot insulate itself from events in this region.
