Elana Stein Heinpower Times of Israel, Dec. 7, 2023 “What bound all of these Jews together was more powerful than what divided them.” Hanukkah reminds us that miracles are possible and that seemingly unwinnable wars can be won. But it also holds lessons about partial victories, imperfect heroes, and incomplete belonging. We tell the story […]

David Mamet Unherd, Dec. 7, 2023 “Western Jews have traditionally voted for liberalism, … We support the United Nations, a Potemkin village of remittance men hired to denounce Israel, and we elect politicians who kowtow to murderous antisemites. We send our children to elite universities, which teach antisemitism and support anti-Jewish demonstrations, and then advise […]

OUTRIGHT LIES University Presidents’ Abhorrent Hypocrisy on Anti-Jewish Speech: The Editors, National Review, Dec. 6, 2023 — All of a sudden, America’s elite universities have started to sound like John Stuart Mill. Asked yesterday by Representative Elise Stefanik (R., N.Y.) whether students who call for “intifada” or shout “from the river to the sea” were acting “contrary to […]
Andrew C. McCarthy National Review, Nov. 25, 2023 “The Brotherhood is a movement that sprang from universities and has always catalyzed campus radicalism.” After the jihadist barbarities of October 7, Israel responded with aerial bombardments of Hamas havens in Gaza, in preparation for the now-ongoing ground invasion. As the bombs fell, Hamas heavyweight Mousa Abu […]
Roger Kimball The Spectator, Nov. 14, 2023 ‘The real change, if it comes, will be the loss of widely shared social legitimacy that this revolution-by-major-donors may precipitate.” Maybe there is something for which we have to thank Hamas after all. That savage terror group epitomizes the latest form of murderous, antisemitic brutality. The world — […]
Penny Pance Washington Times, Nov. 28, 2023 “This antisemitic mindset apparently never left the halls of academia. In the U.S. today, racists are now running the universities, implementing diversity, equity and inclusion programs that have reinforced hate not based on inclusion but on anti-colonialism. These DEI officers blame Whites for colonizing the Americas, and they blame Israel for […]

Michael R. Bloomberg WSJ, Nov. 17, 2023 “Instead of issuing statements on selective issues, college presidents should adopt the policy the University of Chicago has stuck to since 1967, when it declared: “The university is the home and sponsor of critics; it is not itself the critic.” The barbaric attack by Hamas against Israel—the […]

HARDLY NEUTRAL Qatar and Qatari Press Express Unreserved Support for Massive Hamas Terror Attack on Israel, Hold Israel Solely Responsible for It: MEMRI, Oct. 9, 2023 — “The Ministry of Foreign Affairs holds Israel solely responsible for the ongoing escalation due to its ongoing violations of the rights of the Palestinian people, the latest of which was the […]

Yoel Guzansky Jerusalem Post, Nov. 1, 2023 “Israel will need to take direct action, and through the United States, disrupt the relationship between Hamas and Qatar, and the Qatari motivation to fund the organization. Qatar is very sensitive to its international image and status, and it can be targeted by linking it to Hamas and […]
Rep. Jack Bergman Washington Times, Oct. 16, 2023 “… why should we enlist Qatar to negotiate with mass murderers when it could just as easily arrest them? Negotiations are about leverage. If Hamas leaders are negotiating from penthouse suites in Doha, far from Israel’s necessary acts of self-defense in Gaza, they have no incentive to end the carnage and release […]
Eli Lake The Free Press, Oct. 24, 2023 “In the last 25 years the universities have justified these joint ventures with Qatar as a way to liberalize an autocratic society and bring American soft power to the Middle East. Indeed, Qatari officials have themselves given lip service to this goal.” Right now, senior leaders of […]
