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 […]

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.

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.

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 […]
Liel Leibovitz Tablet, Nov. 28, 2021 “The debate about Israel is heated precisely because it’s not about Israel at all, but about the shape of the world, the nature of virtue, and the future of everything from economic structures to international relations.” Why are so many of our self-appointed intellectual and moral betters so obsessed […]
Carine Hajjar National Review, Oct. 2, 2021 “How can academia tolerate such a direct blow to its very purpose? A change in priority can be the only explanation. As the university grows into a more corporate entity, it chooses the stability of ideological orthodoxy over the risks that come with open discourse.” It’s a tale as old […]
