Reading the megillah in quarantine
By
Shayna Abramson
The rabbis are paying attention to scientific research and prioritizing health — which is exactly what I’d expect and… I’m pleasantly surprised
Yossi Klein Halevi
With democracy at stake, voting today feels like an act of prayer
It’s because I feel so passionately about this election that I must remind myself how those voting for the other camp see Israeli reality
Naomi Chazan
The new kingmakers: Israel’s Arab citizens
The assault on one fifth of the population is backfiring: at stake is the value of equality that lies at the core of any democratic society
Dan Perry
Netanyahu did not ‘win’ the election
Bibi doesn’t have 61 seats needed to triumph in an Israeli election. Why are TV and radio spinning him as the winner?
Anat Peled
Not Jewish enough, not gay enough
The crude, deterministic equation of identity with political views precludes our ability to judge candidates on their own terms
Uri Pilichowski
Bernie doesn’t understand Israel and Gaza
In casting the Israeli-Palestinian issue as a matter of justice, the candidate naively ignores more pressing needs for peace and security
I was wrong, and my Ethiopian-Israeli friends were right
By
Micha Odenheimer
The vicious kind of racism I thought didn’t exist in Israel is endemic, especially among police. A ray of hope can be found in Ashkelon
Michael Klahr
No, the tycoons are not driving up prices in Israel
More regulation and busting up monopolies is not the answer: Israeli prices are high because costs are high
Ariel Paz-Sawicki
Why should you and I give the gas monopoly NIS 325 million?
Taxpayers are slated to foot half the bill for a new pipeline to carry gas that’s already absurdly overpriced. Let’s stop it.
Heather Dean
The mask I wore was my name
Being called Heather Dean allowed me to witness my fellow college students’ unguarded moments of casual anti-Semitism
Hanne Foighel
Joining a community of women without hair
I ordered a wig in anticipation of my hair falling out; I won’t be wearing it during chemotherapy
Evolution of an American mom in Israel
By
Ruth Hametz
Is there fire at every celebration? Yes. Are the ’adult’ supervisors adults? No, but my kids are savoring freedom and learning independence
Top Ops
Aaron David Miller
The most dangerous Middle East peace plan I’ve ever seen
We may have been too pro-Israel at Camp David, but at least we tried to engage both sides. Trump’s team didn’t bother to try
Jay Ruderman
A new story to tell about that ‘rift’ between US Jewry and Israel
The same voices keep saying there’s growing alienation from the Jewish state. They’re wrong. It’s time to bring in new voices
Tehilla Katz
If at first you don’t succeed, vote, vote again
I took my voting responsibility very seriously by planning a beach day in minute detail. I was halfway to Tel Aviv when I realized that I’d forgotten to factor in time to vote
Zimra Vigoda
The morning after: Notes from a leftist
I feel numb. I need to start working but I can’t motivate myself to get dressed. Maybe another black coffee from my rainbow flag cup will help.
Moshe Goldberg
Moshe, Moyshe, Maurice, Morris: They do not all smell as sweet
When your name keeps alive the memory of your father’s uncle, you wear it like a badge of honor
Alexander Shapiro
I remain hopeful for Israeli politics and society
Hundreds of Israeli leaders and thousands of citizens see the value of working across sectoral lines towards a shared common future – together, we can accomplish so much
