Jewish Voices for Hate

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 […]

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.

Anti-Semitism’s Useful Idiots

Barbara Kay Toronto Sun, Dec. 21, 2023 “One of their specious dogmas insists that the only good Jew is the Jew who loathes Israel.
