Starving in Gondar
By
Morris E. Hartstein
For the most vulnerable of the 8,000 Ethiopians desperately waiting to reach Israel, one meal a day is not enough
Daniel G. Zemel
My Zionism: In my own words
Small wonder my nuanced position on Israel was misconstrued: Daniel Gordis responded to what amounted to a game of broken telephone
Shoshanna Keats Jaskoll
I reject identity politics
Don’t accept the efforts to pit Jew against Jew, to divide us by color, and force allegiances based on made-up values and newfangled language
Alon Tal
Benny Gantz may be just what Israel needs
It’s important to know what he thinks about the issues, but it’s much more important to know what kind of a leader he is
David Sedley
The Green Book
Those who discriminate against minorities tend to hate Jews, so standing up for minorities is not only morally right, but also the best way to fight anti-Semitism
Shivi Greenfield
A looming ‘brexit’ for Jewish peoplehood
Will the Jewish Agency, the driving force behind Jewish unity, succumb to the same pressures pushing the EU to disband?
Nathan Lopes Cardozo
Why I (refuse to) pray
I am absolutely not prepared to just go through the motions when I feel that I cannot manage the real thing
How my taxi driver’s baby cousin was found
By
Sarah Tuttle-Singer
There is a quiet scandal about Yemenite children who went missing in the 1950s; here is what one man told me about his family
Not drowning but singing
By
Diana Lipton
The Bible’s poetic cheering of the Israelites’ escape and the Egyptian army’s demise reverberates across time and cultures
Top Ops
Gabriella Ginsberg-Fletcher
Who invited ‘Breaking the Silence’ to Columbia?
College campus can be a hotbed of angry anti-Zionist rhetoric, but our discussion around these IDF vets was nuanced and normal
Corey Balsam
Why we’re taking on the Jewish National Fund
A tree I planted as a kid could today be standing on the ruins of a depopulated Palestinian village, and this pains me
Rachel Wahba
The personal (Jew) is political (Zionist)
My father was blackballed in Egypt for being a Jew, and I’ve lost job opportunities in the US for being a Zionist
Ofer Kenig
The illusion of political stability under Netanyahu
Despite a solid decade with the same prime minister, other cabinet posts have switched hands at alarming rates
Naomi Chazan
Who’s minding the store?
We the people become a powerful watchdog when the lame-duck political arena threatens the very essence of democracy
Chaim Druckman
On the Elon saga, silent no longer
If you feel something inappropriate is going on, approach an adult or authority figure who can help, as required by law, Torah, and ethics
