Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Nov. 5, 2024 “… if you want to explain why Democrats are likely to get more than 60% of the Jewish vote, the answer lies in their education and economic status more than anything else.” Regardless of whether Donald Trump or Kamala Harris is named the winner of the 2024 […]

Rona Kaufman Pittsburg Post-Gazette, Nov. 2, 2024 “I am not voting for the party that condemns antisemitism on the right while excusing, and even spreading, leftist antisemitism and blood libels. I am not voting for the party that is equivocal in its support for Israel as she fights to defend her borders, half the world’s Jews, […]

Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Oct. 11, 2024 “… many American Jews have been happily swimming in the same cultural sea of hostility towards Zionism, and until recently, never suspected that its venom could drown them.” On Yom Kippur, there will, as there is every year, be a lot of collective breast-beating in the American Jewish community […]

Bret Stephens NY Times, Oct. 4, 2024 “American Jews should not expect reciprocity.” American Jews were aware, before the pogrom of Oct. 7, 2023, that antisemitism was once again a problem in our collective life. We were aware, if we belonged to a synagogue or worked out at a local Jewish Community Center or sent […]

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. If so, Kamala Harris’s somewhat ambivalent statements about the current war and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in general may weaken American Jews’ support for her candidacy.” Appearing before Jewish donors in New Jersey, […]

BACKING THE WRONG PONY WATCH: Elections 2024: What Elites Are MISSING About the Working Class | Think Twice: JNS TV, July 29, 2024 — So much has been said about Donald Trump’s appeal to blue collar workers since he first came down the escalator to announce his candidacy in 2015. … In this episode of Think Twice, our […]
Caroline B. Glick JNS, Aug. 11, 1014 “While Harris’s aides have breathlessly insisted that she never expressed any support for an arms embargo and that she opposes an arms embargo, Harris supported the administration’s decision to block shipments of several critical weapons systems to Israel.” Former President Donald Trump drives liberal Jews to distraction when […]
David Mamet Unherd, Aug. 9, 2024 “The proximate solution to Jewish vulnerability — which I saw but did not say — was not in persuading others to think differently, but in so-persuading oneself.” How may one today elide the choice between defending the Jewish State’s right to exist, and support for its determined assassins? […]

David Mamet Jewish Journal, July 3, 2024 “The Diaspora meme; “I’m Jewish, but I’m not that Jewish,” has, again, been corrected by a mob’s screaming, “Yes. You are.”” Marilyn Monroe was one of the screen’s great clowns. Her schtick, though tagged as sexual or provocative was actually an affectionate send-up of sexuality. Woody’s screen […]
