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.

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 […]

Geoffrey P. Johnston The Whig Standard, Nov. 10, 2023 “Antisemitism is real! The threats against Canadian Jews are real! For God’s sake, take action now before someone dies.” The sound of windows being smashed by Jew-hating Nazi rioters in the Germany and Austria of 1938 is echoing in the Canada of today on the […]
Christopher F. Schuetze and Graham Bowley NY Times, Nov. 9, 2023 “When Jewish women and men are afraid to openly live their religion, their culture, their everyday lives, to exercise their fundamental right to be visible as members of our society then something is out of control.” In a moment heavy with symbolism, Germany […]

Avi Benlolo National Post, Nov. 3, 2023 “Where are the pro-Palestinian demonstrations demanding that Hamas return the 242 Israelis and foreigners held in medieval-like conditions in Gaza? Where are the candlelight vigils and the calls to stop bombing Israeli cities and towns with crude rockets aimed at civilian populations? Where are the so-called international human rights […]
