Debbie Weiss Algemeiner, Dec. 16, 2024 “In the immediate aftermath of Oct. 7, while many other European countries flew Israeli flags above their government or public buildings, no such act of solidarity was shown in Ireland.” Ireland’s decision to join South Africa’s genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice and its support for redefining […]
Oliver Sears Fathom Journal, December 2024 “His short statement drips with contempt, revealing how such antiquated anti-Jewish racism presents itself in contemporary political commentary, without the least self-doubt.” I have a photograph, circa 1908 of my great-grandmother, Perla Rozenblum aged eighteen with a group of friends in Vienna at the tombstone of Theodor Herzl, the godfather of modern […]
Alex Winston Jerusalem Post, Dec. 19, 2024 “The current Irish prime minister and foreign minister, I think, perceive themselves as global statesmen striding the universe, whose very utterances everyone is hanging on.” Over a decade ago, Michael D Higgins, then still future president of the Republic of Ireland, visited the town of Sderot with a delegation of […]
Allan Shatter Jerusalem Post, Dec. 22, 2024 “The Irish government is simultaneously accusing Israel of genocide while recognizing nothing done by Israel to defend its citizens against Hamas terrorism currently falls within the existing international law concept of genocide.” On Tuesday, December 17, Dr Jilan Wahba Abdul Majid, elevated from Palestine’s representative to ambassadorial status […]

Tristin Hopper National Post, Nov. 26, 2024 “This doesn’t make any sense.

Omar Mohammed Times of Israel, Nov. 13, 2024 “Paradoxically, this language of exclusion coexists with a widespread nostalgia for a “golden age” of interfaith harmony, a time many Arabs proudly recall as an era when Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived together in peace across the medieval Islamic world.” Arabic is a language of extraordinary […]
Melanie Phillips JNS, Nov. 14, 2024 “Evidence that the post-match attacks were part of the broader Islamic war against Jews and the West was provided the following day when the same pro-Hamas mobs attacked the Amsterdam police, who had belatedly banned the continuing hate fest.” America is attempting to clean up its house. Europeans […]
Philologos Mosaic Magazine, Nov. 14, 2024 “Ultimately, “Judeo-Christian” fell out of favor for being exclusionist and anti-Muslim. Once associated with liberal values, it was increasingly identified with the illiberal political right.” In the Jewish world whose annual cycle of Torah readings recommenced last month, these are the weeks of Abraham.
