William McGurn WSJ, Nov. 27, 2023 “… If colleges abandon their final cause, which is truth, their formal cause, which is civil discourse, soon breaks down into bullying, canceling, and extortion.” As Israel began exchanging Palestinian prisoners for Israeli moms and children, Harvard was dealing with its own ultimatum. A week ago pro-Palestinian students gave university […]

Gerard Level The Washington Times, Nov. 23, 2023 “Jews are the only group in Western societies who, in spite of recurrent oppression and discrimination, are seemingly deprived of the right to be viewed as victims, even when they very clearly have incurred all of the indignities and suffering that should be more than adequate for being […]

Terry Glavin National Post, Nov. 22, 2023 “… there’s something else in the Irish psyche that’s impolite to mention in the comfy Dublin pubs and bistros of Portobello, Ranelagh and Rathmines. Not a few of Ireland’s gallant and celebrated champions of the underdog, its heroes of Irish freedom, were vulgar antisemites and Nazi collaborators.” There’s […]
englEmilie Botbol JNS, Nov. 7, 2023 “There is clearly reason for concern. Seeing people celebrating the massacre in London neighborhoods, calling for ‘jihad’ or ‘intifada’ at demonstrations and viciously tearing down posters of the hostages kidnapped by Hamas is sickening.” In a speech before the British Parliament on Tuesday, King Charles vowed that Britain would address “the […]
Etan Smallman Unherd, Nov. 9, 2023 “If the initial concerns of Jewish students — busily covering their skullcaps and Jewish-themed tattoos — were brushed off, it soon became clear that, if anything, they had underestimated the anti-Israeli atmosphere on campuses.” In my first year at university, in 2005, I vividly recall coming across a Guardian article by […]

SHABBAT READING Isaac Tries to Give an Agricultural Blessing to Esau the Hunter: Dr. Ely Levine, The Torah.com, Sept. 19, 2019 — While Jacob and Esau are identified as twins, they could not be more different. Even in their mother’s womb, they struggle with each other. בראשית כה:כב וַיִּתְרֹצֲצוּ הַבָּנִים בְּקִרְבָּהּ וַתֹּאמֶר אִם כֵּן לָמָּה זֶּה אָנֹכִי וַתֵּלֶךְ לִדְרֹשׁ […]
Gad Saad National Post, Nov. 15, 2023 “The response of our leaders has been to always lump the astounding increase of Jew-hatred with Islamophobia. Apparently, the optimal way to combat Jew-hatred is to remind the populace that we must all redouble our collective efforts to eradicate Islamophobia.” I was born and raised in Beirut, Lebanon. […]
Jonathan Kay National Post, Nov. 14, 2023 “Antisemitism inevitably contaminates all radicalized political movements because it feeds into every fanatic’s belief that history’s “true” path has been deflected by some cabal of evildoers.” In September, it was reported that representatives from the Canadian Anti-Hate Network (CAHN) had petitioned the federal government, seeking $5-million in public funding. According to the […]

Giles Fraser UnHerd, Nov. 13, 2023 “… it is the genteel, middle-class, soft-Left, hand-wringing antisemitism — the kind that wouldn’t dream of saying anything crass or extreme — that has been legitimised, has become high-status opinion even, on the streets of London.” He was a fat bloke with a swastika tattooed on his beer belly […]
Brendan O’Neill Spiked, Oct. 16, 2023 “We live under a cultural elite that sees genocidal intent where it doesn’t exist, and ignores it where it does.” So let me get this right. If Israel bombs Hamas targets in Gaza, it is recklessly endangering civilian life. But if it gives civilians fair warning to move […]
Rex Murphy National Post, Nov. 13, 2023 “Someone skids on a “rainbow crosswalk” here and the Trudeau leadership gallops to protest the hate. Twelve hundred Jews slaughtered in a storm of real hate and you can taste the reluctance to publicly condemn Hamas, excoriate the hatefulness of some of the street demonstrations, and offer real […]
