‘Progressives’ and the Hamas Pogrom: An A-Z Guide: Alan Johnson, Fathom Journal, October 2023 — Pogrom is a Russian word meaning ‘to wreak havoc, to demolish violently.’ Historically, the term refers to violent attacks by local non-Jewish populations on Jews. (The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum) LISTEN: WTH Is Going on with the Explosion of Antisemitism on […]

Brendan O’Neill Spiked, Oct. 31, 2023 “… there is a logical line from the furious denunciation of certain forms of speech as ‘violence’ to the implicit acceptance of actual violence if it is directed against ‘bad’ people. That line is what we might call narcissistic savagery, where almost anything can be justified in the name […]

Benjamin Baird The Federalist, Oct. 13, 2023 “Tlaib, who is of Palestinian heritage, said Sunday that a peaceful solution “must include lifting the blockade, ending the occupation and dismantling the apartheid system that creates the suffocating, dehumanizing conditions that can lead to resistance.” In the wake of a brutal terrorist attack on Israel, members of […]

Jordan Peterson The Telegraph, Oct. 16, 2023 “This warped psychological perspective has an appeal to groups larger than just the core individuals, and in various surreal guises. How else are you to explain the staggeringly incomprehensible spectacle of, for example, ‘Queers for Palestine’ – perhaps the most egregious example of the union of the desire by ‘progressives’ […]

Boaz Munro Tablet, Oct. 19, 2023 “And I fell apart. For a few days, I felt like the country was sliding inexorably toward the unthinkable fate of 1940s Germany. After all, I thought, if people will shrug off beatings and swastikas, they’ll shrug off stabbings and shootings. And then they’ll shrug off pogroms—at least if […]

Salem Alketbi Israel Hayom, Oct. 11, 2023 “Opening several combat fronts against Israel at the same time is a scenario that was rehearsed and the Israeli side’s reaction to it was tested.” As an observer of the events, I find that Hamas’s invasion of several Israeli towns, while noteworthy, pales in importance compared to […]

Marc Rowan The Free Press, Oct. 11, 2023 “At UPenn, the embrace of double standards and the unacceptable status quo, which privileges antisemitism, did not begin on President Magill’s and Chairman Bok’s watch, but they are the protectors of it.” While Hamas terrorists were slaughtering Israeli Jews, university administrators were figuring out how to […]
Jeffrey Blehar National Review, Oct. 11, 2023 “While one would expect college-age pro-Palestinian activists (morally deranged as they are) to stand up for Hamas in their sloppily knotted keffiyehs regardless of how many women and children the organization butchers or rapes, one would not have expected nearly every other South Asian, Middle Eastern, or North […]
Ian Oxnevad Minding the Campus, Oct. 12, 2023 “The Ivy League’s interest in promoting apparatchiks for Iran’s theocrats can only be explained by academia’s anti-Israel hatred and its hostility towards the West in general.” The leafy quads and collegiate student gatherings of the current Fall semester hide deep ties between American universities and the […]

Gerard Baker WSJ, Oct. 9, 2023 “The terrorists’ objective is truly indiscriminate destruction. For them a dead Jew is a bonus, but a dead Palestinian is a trophy they can parade before credulous Western media to convey some supposed moral equivalence between their depravity and the actions of a beleaguered state seeking to preserve its […]

Frederick Krantz “… he’s leading a relatively poor, corruption-stained country, independent only since 1991, which is nevertheless fighting for its life, with allies who, though generous, are not giving him full support for fear of antagonizing too greatly the very state that threatens his country.” Is there any political or moral alternative to the U.S.-led […]
