BEEN THERE BEFORE Opinion: This Unpalatable Reality About Antisemitism at Harvard: Lev Golinkin, CNN, Dec. 12, 2023 — Harvard University recently issued the latest in an ongoing string of attempts to underscore its commitment to combatting antisemitism, which has grown more evident in the wake of the Israel-Hamas war. The Rabbi’s Lesson for Claudine Gay: Seth Mandel, Commentary Magazine, Dec. 14, 2023 — Much […]
Peter Wood and David Randall National Association of Scholars, Dec. 11, 2023 “… since the Hamas attack on southern Israel on October 7, President Gay has exhibited a moral obtuseness that marries intolerance for all dissent from the diversity, equity, and inclusion regime, to insensitivity to Jews faced with anti-Jewish harassment.” The National Association of […]
Dan Sullivan WSJ, Dec. 15, 2023 “Would you feel welcome in Harvard’s most famous library? Would you feel rattled, intimidated and harassed by the anti-Israel banner screaming “Stop the Genocide in Gaza”?” I was in Boston last weekend for the Army-Navy game. The day after the game, five days after Harvard President Claudine Gay’s disastrous […]
Isabel Vincent NY Post, Dec. 12, 2023 “And two days later, on Oct. 27, The Post was sent a 15-page letter by Thomas Clare, a high-powered Virginia-based attorney with the firm Clare-Locke who identified himself as defamation counsel for Harvard University and Gay.

Eli Steele Newsweek, Dec. 11, 2023 “By checking the “black” box, I was being asked to mask the actual problems and inequities that undermine the efforts of lower-class blacks—all so university administrations could claim the pretense of racial redemption through higher enrollment numbers.” I have known people like Claudine Gay my entire life and they […]
Michael Goodwin NY Post, Dec. 12, 2023 “Beyond Harvard, Gay’s reprieve likely will be turned into a misleading model by other schools facing calls for new leadership. They now have a template for conceding mistakes and denouncing antisemitism, then moving on as if they’ve solved the problem.” So now it’s one president down, no more […]

SHABBAT READING Sibling Rivalry: Mikketz, 5771, 5784, The Rabbi Sacks Legacy — The Torah is a deep book. We make a great mistake if we think it can be understood on one superficial level. On the surface, the story is simple. Envious of him, Joseph’s brothers initially planned to kill him. Eventually they sell into slavery. He is […]

Dr. Yusri Khizran BESA, Dec. 10, 2023 “Hezbollah engaged in a Lebanese political-national discourse that ostensibly placed its military existence at the heart of the Lebanese national consensus. This was summed up in three words: people, army and resistance.” Hezbollah’s enduring enmity towards Israel reflects the ideological concepts on which it was founded. The […]
TOI Staff Times of Israel, Dec. 9, 2023 “The Americans have not set any deadline. … They understand that they can’t tell the IDF how long it needs to achieve the goals. They share the goals of returning the hostages — a campaign that a date cannot be set for — and of destroying Hamas. […]
Eric Mandel The Hill, Dec. 13, 2023 “There are 10,000 UN soldiers in southern Lebanon. They have not stopped the transfer of even one precision-guided missile to Hezbollah from Iran. They have also allowed Hezbollah complete independence to build a terrorist army.” The U.S. is ramping up pressure on Israel to end the Israel-Hamas war. […]
Khaled Abu Toameh Gatestone, Dec. 11, 2023 “Lebanon is not an arena for resistance [against Israel] or those who are deceived. We reject this announcement. My advice to you [Hamas]: ‘Do not sink into the shifting Lebanese sands, otherwise the loss with be great.'” On December 4, the Iran-backed Palestinian terror group. Hamas announced the establishment […]
