Ruth R. Wisse Commentary Magazine, February 2024 “Where anti-Semitism and views that are profoundly anti-Israeli have traditionally been the primary preserve of poorly educated right-wing populists, profoundly anti-Israel views are increasingly finding support in progressive intellectual communities.” Forgive me for quoting myself, but there’s no other way to begin: “History rarely issues us a red […]
Liel Leibovitz City Journal, Jan. 30, 2024 “As long as the DEI machinery continues to hum, it will offer preposterous courses, exclude groups it finds undesirable, excommunicate its foes, and expunge all but the beliefs it champions.” If you’ve ever watched a monster movie, you know the scene. The triumphant heroes walk away, the […]
Caroline Downey National Review, Jan. 31, 2024 “The previous selection process was conducted in record time,” Pollak said of Gay’s selection. “It appears, though, the important questions were not asked. This time around, we will be asking all the uncomfortable questions. Is this the most qualified candidate? Is this candidate’s publication record high quality enough?” […]

Tony Badran Tablet, Jan. 30, 2024 “American universities have made either an exceedingly clever or else exceedingly reprehensible bargain: quota-filling at a profit.” Five weeks after Rutgers University suspended the New Brunswick campus chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) on Dec. 11 for violating several university policies, the school reversed its decision and reinstated […]

ABOUT FACE Testimony on UNRWA Before Congress: Why Evolution is True, Jan. 30, 2024 — If you have any interest in UNRWA, several people, including Hillel Neuer, the head of the NGO UN Watch, will testify before a House subcommittee starting NOW. I expect there will be lot of testimony, supported by evidence, about how this UN […]

Brendan O’Neill Spiked, Jan. 29, 2024 “Most striking is the left’s attempts to downplay the seriousness of the charges against UNRWA.” I long ago lost faith in the left. But even I wouldn’t have believed it if you’d told me that one day they would spend Holocaust Memorial Day cheering an organisation whose members stand accused […]
Rachel O’Donoghue Honest Reporting Canada, Jan. 30, 2024 “While the BBC does reference some of UNRWA’s troubling history, it frames these issues as mere accusations from Israeli governments, which have “long denounced the agency’s teaching and textbooks for, in their view, perpetuating anti-Israel views.”” Following the release of evidence by Israel that Palestinian UNRWA employees […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Jan. 29, 2024 “If the past is any indication of the future, even those who have spoken out about this, like the United States, will eventually, even if quietly, resume full funding of UNRWA.” Let’s not get caught up in the details of the controversy that made headlines this past weekend about the […]
Jesse Kline National Post, Jan. 30, 2024 “On Oct. 7, as Hamas terrorists were indiscriminately slaughtering civilians in their homes and violently raping party-goers at a music festival, Safia Aidid, a professor at the University of Toronto, tweeted her “solidarity with the Palestinian people, today and everyday.”” The Israel-Hamas war has exposed an education […]

INCREASING TIES ICJ Verdict: SA Chief Rabbi’s Call to Fight Back: Chief Rabbi Goldstein, YouTube, Jan. 28, 2024 — The International Court of Justice has delivered its interim judgment. Even a political body appointed by the United Nations General Assembly, whose members are mainly non-democratic states, couldn’t bring itself to order Israel to ceasefire, but we should […]

Editorial Board, NY Post, Jan. 29, 2024 “… over a thousand of these UN employees have documented terror ties.” It’s time — beyond time — to rethink US funding for the United Nations. After all, America has laws against financing terrorist groups, and the United Nations does just that: It employs actual Hamas terrorists and promoters […]
