David Samuels Unherd, Aug. 26, 2024 “All told, the Chicago Miracle, as it will doubtlessly be known, was a reality-fracturing magic act.” Making an elephant disappear is a notoriously difficult test of the magician’s art. Turning a flower girl into a duchess might be even harder to pull off. Convincing the world’s most powerful man […]

Steinberg, Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, Aug. 18, 2024 — Many of the slogans chanted by antisemitic mobs on university campuses and in major cities following the October 7, 2023, atrocities – “genocide… starvation… apartheid… war crimes… […]
Elliot Kaufman WSJ, Aug. 22, 2024 “ … the anti-Israel fanatics demand that Jews relinquish not so much the tenets of their religion as their dignity and the solidarity that sustains Jewish peoplehood.” A legal victory for Jewish students comes by way of an oversimplification of Judaism. Yet in the process, it stumbles on some […]
Barton Swain WSJ, Aug. 23, 2024 “Apart from the slogans, speakers didn’t call straightforwardly for the destruction of Israel and the wiping out of Israeli Jews, but only a fool could miss the intensely antisemitic purpose of the event.” Predictions were amiss that the 2024 Democratic National Convention would repeat the mayhem of its 1968 […]
Dexter Van Zile Focus on Western Islamism, Aug. 23, 2024 “Walz has a lot to answer for, but no one is going to ask him about it. The idea seems to be that you can’t say anything critical of Muslims without being accused of being an anti-Muslim radical, so people just ignore it. [Muslims] […]
Brendan O’Neill Spiked, Aug. 23, 2024 “The commentariat’s reluctance to hold Hamas responsible for anything, even its own wicked deeds, is getting scary now.” A bizarre debate has blown up.

SHABBAT READING Psalms for Our Times: Rashi Counters Christological Readings: Prof. Rabbi Mordechai Z. Cohen, The Torah.com, Aug. 2, 2024 — It is becoming increasingly accepted that Rashi reacted polemically to Christian beliefs and Bible interpretation, and that, throughout his commentaries, he was implicitly refuting the Christian claim that God had rejected Israel. He thus made the […]
Eli Lake Tablet, Aug. 21, 2024 “Perhaps the president can dispatch one of his aides to ask the river-to-the-sea crowd whether it would protest the embassy of Qatar, a country that has been one of the most important patrons of Hamas in recent years, instead of Israel’s consulate in Chicago.” President Joe Biden, in his Chicago swan […]
Adam Milstein Jerusalem Post, Aug. 23, 2024 “Obfuscating and appropriating Jewish history is a tactic that comes directly from the playbook of terrorist organizations like Hamas and Hezbollah.” Since October 7th, protests around the globe in support of the “Palestinian cause” have exploded in popularity and tenacity.
