Naveh Dromi Ynet News, Sept. 3, 2024 “… at no point, from the first deal onward, were we ever close to signing an agreement for the hostages’ return. It was never on the table except in the fevered imaginations of a few who even the events of October 7 didn’t wake from their delusions.” Even […]

Bret Stephens NY Times, Sept. 3, 2024 “Once Israel leaves Gaza, international pressure for it not to re-enter for nearly any reason short of another Oct. 7 will be overwhelming.” Since the days of Abraham — who, according to Genesis, rescued his nephew Lot after he’d been seized by an invading army — Jewish tradition has […]
Liel Leibovitz Tablet, Sept. 5, 2024 “#BringThemHomeNow demonstrates just how hollow and inflamed Israeli public discourse has become. To whom, exactly, is this exhortation addressed?” Tens of thousands of protesters were swarming the streets of Tel Aviv on Sunday, calling on all restaurants, bars, and shops to shutter in solidarity. Many did. Highway 4, the […]
Jon Polin Israel from the Inside, Aug. 20, 2024 “There is war, there are reserves, there is Lebanon and there is Iran. The hostages? “It’s complicated,” and they choose not to speak.” Barely a few weeks into this war, back at the end of October or the beginning of November, we had most of our […]

Jamie Dettmer Politico, Aug. 12, 2024 “As Jewish Democrats, it’s tough to wrap our heads around the idea that everyone thought Shapiro was the strongest pick and he lost out. There was an unprecedented campaign against him by the far left, including many who aren’t even Democrats, to smear him because he’s an observant Jew.” […]
Douglas Altabef Jerusalem Post, Sept. 3, 2024 “The “as a Jew” Jews have come to understand that the only way they can maintain their good standing in the intersectional progressive world that they yearn to inhabit is to turn on – and to turn in – their own people.” The range of Jewish attitudes toward […]
Future of Jewish, Aug. 29, 2024 “… while we were distracted, living it up with our bagels and schmears and “Curb Your Enthusiasm” bingeing, the cabin pressure itself plummeted — and now, like George Costanza, we need to follow Liel Leibovitz’s advice, and “get out.”” Writer’s note: I have requested anonymity for this essay because […]
Uzi Reshun Jerusalem Post, Sept. 4, 2024 “It stands to reason, however, that Jews will give undue weight to considerations related to Israel.

Matti Friedman The Free Press, Sept. 1, 2024 “But as for the real person—the grinning raconteur from that dinner table—we heard nothing for months.” Last September I had dinner with Hersh Goldberg-Polin at his home in Jerusalem, which isn’t far from mine. His parents are friends, Chicago natives who came years ago and stayed. […]
