Is it Enough The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism May 2023: The White House, May 25, 2023-– Six years ago, Neo-Nazis marched from the shadows through Charlottesville, Virginia, chanting, “Jews will not replace us.” With torches in hand, they spewed the same antisemitic bile and hate that were heard across Europe in the 1930s.

Mitchell Bard JNS, May 24, 2023 “The biggest red herring of the antisemites and their ACLU enablers is that adopting the IHRA will unconstitutionally deny people their right to free speech by prohibiting or chilling criticism of Israel.” We’ve been hearing for weeks how the Biden administration has been preparing a strategy to combat […]
Elizabeth Williamson NY Times, May 25, 2023 “… the Biden administration strategy recognizes the I.H.R.A. definition as the “most prominent,” while acknowledging the value of others, including one developed by the Nexus Task Force, created by the Annenberg School of Communication and Journalism at the University of Southern California.” The Biden administration released the country’s […]
Katherine Knot Inside Higher Ed, May 26, 2023 “Antisemitism has no place in our society, and I am proud that the department will continue to use all available tools to prevent and address antisemitic discrimination in our nation’s schools. No student should have to face discrimination or harassment because of their race, color, national origin, […]
Analysis Zvika Klein Jerusalem Post, May 28, 2023 “Everyone knows I love partnership but adding CAIR which embraces antisemitism is kind of like Iran serving on the women’s rights council in the UN — it should never have happened and it shouldn’t now either.” Why would the White House include an organization that has […]

This is his Guide to Longevity.: David Kissinger, Washington Post, May 25, 2023 — On Saturday, my father, Henry Kissinger, celebrates his 100th birthday.

David M. Weinberg Jerusalem Post, May 24, 2023 “The delay in weapons supply to Israel on days two through six of the war cannot be attributed to Kissinger, but rather to then-defense secretary James Schlesinger, along with unfriendly European leaders who refused stopover landing rights for planes carrying supplies for Israel.” Even as he […]
Thomas Fazi UnHerd, May 24, 2023 “Kissinger’s defenders focus on his diplomatic achievements, which are hard to dispute.” How one chooses to celebrate Kissinger’s Century depends on where you sit in the “Kissinger wars”. To his detractors, Henry Kissinger was an imperialist who pursued US global supremacy with unmatched ruthlessness and cynicism. To his supporters, […]
Oded Eran INSS, November 2022 “Reading Indyk’s book left me no doubt that his first aim in writing the work is the desire to change opinions, beliefs, and impressions that have emerged regarding the book’s subject matter due to his own experience in Israel during the Yom Kippur War in 1973.” Indyk, Martin. Master […]
Tunku Varadarajan WSJ, May 26, 2023 “What Mr. Kissinger sees when he looks at the world today is “disorder.” Eight years—that’s all the time Henry Kissinger was in public office.

Eli Kavon Jerusalem Post, May 31, 2022 “The Sinaic revolution, by demanding a belief in one God, without form or shape, who was the sole creator of the universe, who willed the cosmos into existence and invested humanity with the power to choose to do good or evil, overturned the existing belief systems of great […]
