The day Israel humiliated its US friends in Congress
By
Yossi Klein Halevi
The 40+ freshman Democrats who are committed to the Israeli-American relationship showed the fringe anti-Israel element to be just that — but how do they feel now?
Andrew Silow-Carroll
Disloyalty dat loyalty: What Trump really meant
He wasn’t so much accusing Jewish Democrats of being bad Americans as he was accusing them of being bad Jews
Daniel Gordis
Israel is neither Bibi nor the United States
If you evaluate Israeli politics through the prism of American democracy, you will be disappointed (and embarrassed). You will also miss what Israel is all about
Biranit Goren
Let her eat cake: Deconstructing Sara’s diplomatic incident
Sara Netanyahu was having a bad day when she was nearly fed – horrors! – CARBS, during a state visit, no less. Whatever was the good woman to do?
Dana Weiss
Israel’s elections: Because and about Liberman
The gamble to break with Netanyahu is paying off: like a Shakespearean antagonist, the former partner can make or break King Bibi’s future
Avi Issacharoff
Selling the fantasy of ‘transfer’
Netanyahu talks tough to appeal to his furthest right-wing base, but his government has provided unprecedented aid to Hamas
Laura Ben-David
Israel was right to ban Tlaib and Omar; Trump was wrong to push for it
Whatever legitimate reasons Israel may have had to bar the congresswomen was crushed under the toxic effects of the US president’s verbal onslaught.
Sally Abrams
Minnesota won’t fast forget lesson on Israel barring Omar and Tlaib
Most of my fellow Minnesotans know very little about Israel; now, they know one thing, and it’s not a good thing
The grave matter of a chained wife’s plight
By
Shoshanna Keats Jaskoll
When Jewish mothers fear what marriage could bring for their daughters, it is the rabbis’ job to find a solution
David Sedley
World Ice Theory and the imperative of seeking truth
There’s a cautionary tale to be found in a pseudoscientific doctrine embraced by the Nazis (Parshat Ekev)
Surviving and thriving without screens
By
Larry Rothwachs
We dared to take electronic devices away from all 1300 of our campers and staff members — what happened next was remarkable
Top Ops
Gilad Cohen
Lowering the cost of living in Israel
Household items from Hyundai, Kia, Samsung, LG, and more should cost less, once the Free Trade Zone between Israel and South Korea takes effect
Michael Boyden
Rashida Tlaib, Israel isn’t going anywhere
The congresswoman should work to build bridges and help Palestinians forego their fantasy of destroying the Jewish state
Naomi Chazan
What if there really is a partner for peace?
Ehud Barak should go to Mahmoud Abbas, eat some humble pie, and convince him to join forces to strike a workable, lasting and fair agreement
Stacey Goodstein Ashtamker
If Israel were more like Hadassah
The mix of Jewish patients, Arab doctors, Arab patients, Jewish doctors, and therapists who speak unexpected Hebrew or Arabic makes me think peace is possible
Jack Schwartz
Keeping out the huddled masses
Blocking immigration for fear of ’invaders’ who will take jobs, debase the culture, and ’replace us’ is rooted in the racism of eugenics that undermines the very essence of America
Daniel Orenstein
On the climate crisis, those obnoxious vegans are right
We can make major environmental and health improvements if we substantially lower the amount of meat in our diet — just ask my vegan daughter
