Roosevelt Montás WSJ, Nov. 4, 2021 “… many people today, even academics, take the study of the classics to be elitist and exclusive. Of course, a curriculum weighted toward the past and therefore toward “dead white males” invites questions about diversity and inclusion.” In 1985, a few days before my 12th birthday, I left the […]
Barton Swain WSJ, Dec. 10, 2021 “Are the challenges facing conservatives really so different from what they were 50, 60 or 70 years ago?” There was a time—roughly from the mid-1960s to the rise of Donald Trump in 2015—when the American right was more or less definable. No more. Major political parties are always riven by internal […]
Brandan O’Neill Spiked, Dec. 9, 2021 “… ours is a time in which a great many people covet victimhood.” At first glance, the Jussie Smollett trial looks like one of the maddest things taking place in the Western world right now. Here we have an actor accused of giving wads of money to two Nigerian […]

MEDIA-OCRITY OF THE WEEK Donald Trump is Attempting A ‘Full Nixon’ By Focusing On Next Year’s Midterms: David Shribman, The Globe and Mail, Dec. 11, 2021“Who says Donald J. Trump knows nothing about history? Don’t look now, but Mr. Trump is in the throes of attempting a Full Nixon. Not undermining the Constitution—or, at least not […]

Petition: Demand NYT, BBC Stop Featuring Antisemites & Anti-Israel Terrorism Apologists: Honest Reporting –– The New York Times is once again facing tough questions about its objectivity and impartiality regarding its coverage of Israel, as it has emerged that one of its most recent hires previously blamed the Jewish state for the actions of Palestinian suicide […]
Higher Education Is Broken. Can A New Anti-Woke Start-Up Make A Difference?; Jonathan S. Tobin, JNS, Nov. 12, 2021 — As toxic as Twitter can be, sometimes the orgies of abuse and mockery for which the social media forum is so well-known can tell us something important. Lessons Learned on the Frontlines Against BDS: Johanna […]

Pano Kanelos Common Sense with Bari Weiss, Nov. 8, 2021 “But in these top schools, and in so many others, can we actually claim that the pursuit of truth—once the central purpose of a university—remains the highest virtue?” So much is broken in America. But higher education might be the most fractured institution of all. There […]
Johanna Markind JNS, Nov. 17, 2021 “Anti-Israel groups have targeted anti-BDS laws for extermination. In the course of litigation, they have shone a spotlight on the laws’ strengths and weaknesses.” The post-Holocaust moratorium on openly expressing anti-Semitism is over. Even where blatant targeting of Jews remains unfashionable, it often flourishes masquerading as anti-Israelism. Its latest […]
Christine Douglass- Williams Jihad Watch, Dec. 9, 2021 “It ultimately resulted in a victory, in a groundbreaking, precedent-setting vote put to the TDSB Trustees to strike down an antisemitic motion. The battle was intense, and demonstrated what collective determination for the good could accomplish.” Antisemitism at the Toronto District School Board has led to a […]
Melanie Phillips JNS, Dec. 9, 2021 “… the heads of five Democratic caucuses have called for Boebert to be stripped of her committee assignments.” One of the most obvious characteristics of anti-Semitism is the double standards it perpetrates, through which Jews are singled out for harmful assumptions and treatment directed against no other people in […]
Steven Emerson IPT News, Dec. 9, 2021 “But no speaker mentioned the bigoted message and antisemitic narratives pushed by CAIR since its founding more than 25 years ago. Nor did they explain how it was possible to fight bigotry and hate when the organization is led by bigots and haters.” This is Part 2 of a two-part series excerpted from a […]
Mitchell Bard JNS, Nov. 17, 2021 “The entire concept of academic freedom is a creation of faculty (the AAUP and the Association of American Colleges and Universities) not of any of the other stakeholders and it has been set up so that only faculty foxes can guard the campus henhouse.” While most campus organizations focus […]
