Shany Mor WSJ, Oct. 20, 2023 “Western activists for Palestinians are dedicated to two nearly theological precepts: that Israel is evil, and that no Palestinian action is ever connected to any Palestinian outcome. Each precept is grounded in longstanding—and borderline racist—conceptions of Jews and Arabs.’ You might think that an atrocity like Hamas’s Oct. 7 […]

Alan Baker Jerusalem Post, Oct. 31, 2023 “Despite her reputation as a crusader for liberal issues, she chose to ignore the Hamas atrocities, which included mass murder, rape, and kidnap.” It is difficult to fathom the logic behind the wave of demonstrations against Israel in European capitals, on North American campuses, and in cities in […]

Benjamin Netanyahu WSJ, Oct. 30, 2023 “It means holding Hamas accountable for the double war crime it commits every day by deliberately targeting Israeli civilians and deliberately using Palestinian civilians as human shields.” Until recently, many believed that the promise of progress in the 21st century would enable us to move beyond the barbaric horrors […]
Walter Russell Mead WSJ, Oct. 30, 2023 “Jew hatred is the most damaging piece of the “horseshoe” consensus that brings the far left and far right together. This hatred is a sign of mental incapacity and is a barrier to learning.” As students and, worse, professors, at elite universities across the U.S. exulted at the news […]
Suzy Weiss and Francesca Block The Free Press, Oct. 31, 2023 “When you look at the political right you see a group that seems very comfortable with Jews in Israel and very uncomfortable with Jews at home. And when you look at the political left, you see a group that seems very comfortable with Jews […]

Bojan Pancevski, Matthew Dalton, David Luhnow and Karolina Jeznach WSJ, Oct. 30, 2023 “Both reactionary Islam and the radical left in the West are both opposed to Western hegemony and they see the Jewish state in this region as the quintessential expression of Western domination.

John Podhoretz NY Post, Oct. 26, 2023 “Why do you think the marchers are meeting near Crown Heights anyway? This is why. Their purpose isn’t to call for a cease-fire or to advocate for the Palestinian people. Their purpose is to make known what October 7 made known: There will be no peace or security […]

Abu Yehuda, Oct. 29, 2023 “Possibly civil control can be rested in the Arab clans that are powerful in the various areas of the Gaza Strip; but there will be no alternative to an IDF presence to provide overall security and prevent an extremist takeover. The only other alternative is forced emigration of a large […]

Prof. Frederick Krantz It’s too early to draw definitive conclusions about a highly complicated political and military situation.

SHABBAT READING When Peace Fails: Psalm 120: Prof. Adele Berlin, The Torah.com, Oct. 26, 2023 — In these troubled times we often look to psalms to express our feelings and to find hope. Psalm 120 seems especially relevant now. It begins by calling on God for protection from the deceptive speech of the speaker’s enemies: שיר המעלות קכ:א שִׁיר הַמַּעֲלוֹת […]
Barbara Kay National Post, Oct. 22, 2023 “It is hard to sorrow for those who only sorrow over themselves. It is difficult to pity the pitiless.” From Anne Frank’s iconic “Diary of a Young Girl,” one quotation is especially prized: “It’s a wonder I haven’t abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and […]
