Astronauts with disabilities?
By
Ari Shishler
The question of who is fit to fly to space raises the question of who God considers fit to live on earth
Ofer Kenig
Israeli politics is still a (mostly) boys’ club at the top
Despite record numbers in the Knesset, few females hold senior government posts — their absence leaves Israel worse off
Udi Lebel
The Israeli left’s unabashed militarism
To save the country from Likud’s ’corrupt’ rule, the ’peace camp’ is sending in an army of top ex security personnel
Francis Nataf
A religious party worthy of the name
Rafi Peretz is a man of integrity and the true role model for the community that I do not see in Naftali Bennett or Baruch Marzel
The Wondrous Judean Underland
By
Ticia Verveer
The Judean Lowlands of Israel is home to hundreds of underground complexes, part of a spectacular subterranean world
Yomin Postelnik
Fairness for the Netanyahus
It’s shameful to go after Sara Netanyahu for having a chef make food that she delivered to her ailing father in the hospital
Yoav (Poly) Mordechai
and
Michael Milshtein
Toward a change in the old Israeli-Arab peace equation
Even without progress on peace with the Palestinians, Israel is able to forge ties with Arab states — within limits
Yehudis Fletcher
The community’s response can hurt more than the abuse
It’s high time we protest the faith-based institutions that use faith as a fig leaf, and protect perpetrators instead of survivors
Napoleon and the Muezzin
By
Bill Slott
That morning the call to prayer turned a church and a mosque into a shooting gallery
Top Ops
Georgette F. Bennett
That shining moment when Syrians and Israelis put hate aside
Although the route is now closed, our delivery of aid across the Golan Heights border made a lasting positive impact
Ethan Greenwood
Lifestyle tips for Orthodox Jews (a la Marie Kondo)
The self-help celeb insists you don’t need more than 30 books. Ignore that advice — you need way, way more than 30
Dan Perry
The case for the center in Israel today
As the right undermines democracy and the Palestinians toe a maximalist line, a middle road is needed: peace with caveats
Chana Oshira Block
Navigating Jerusalem buses in a wheelchair
Broken wheel restraints make Egged a far more wild ride than it should be
Yigal M. Gross
New Jersey’s RCBC decertifies communal debate
It’s not (just) about women rabbis — no synagogue should cede its policy-making and hiring decisions to an external body
Danny Bloom
Author of faux Holocaust romance: Jews ’feel protective’
The comment by novelist who plans 3 sequels to her implausible ’Tattooist of Auschwitz’ is borderline anti-Semitic
