‘Declare a state of moral emergency’
By
Peter Geffen
Indifference to evil is more insidious than evil itself; it is more universal, more contagious, more dangerous
Daniel Geretz
I got caught with my pants down – my white privilege saved me
White people take for granted the freedom to relax about making mistakes because the consequences are usually insignificant
Robert L. Wolkoff
Sacred ground
It is terrifying that the man who sits in the office of the president of the United States has such profound disregard for the very principles on which the country was founded
Aaron Koller
America’s Bible problem
Trump’s Bible thumping is designed to divide people, evoking awe from some, and alienating the rest — whereas the Bible itself shows God’s investment in every single human being
Elazar Stern
Stop the ‘pay for slay’ payments and put the welfare of Israeli citizens first
For the PA, the martyrs’ payments are central to the long war against Israel; for Israel, stopping them is essential to preventing terror and breaking the cycle of conflict
Dana Blander
Without trust, there can be no compliance
The Israeli public deserves leadership that isn’t weighed down by a track record of incoherent instructions, selective enforcement, and politicians’ own failure to comply
Farhud Day: Remembering the screams
By
Rachel Wahba
79 years after Muslims rampaged against Jews in Baghdad, killing, maiming, raping and looting, the horrors have yet to be adequately memorialized
Shira Pasternak Be'eri
Velvel Pasternak: A recording session to remember
My father thought he was helping preserve Hasidic music for posterity; the singers, however, were busy worshiping God
Marilyn Katzman
That phantom airline flying to an Arab state
Air Sinai offers flights between Tel Aviv and Cairo — but good luck reaching them online, locating an office or finding Israel on their maps
Protests in a pandemic: What it says about hope
Suddenly there was chaos and screaming — gas in the air and water in my eyes. By the end of the night, I no longer recognized Boston
Rachel Sharansky Danziger
America is bleeding, I must not turn away
To do nothing in the wake of George Floyd’s death and all that has followed it is to deaden some part of ourselves, as surely as if we drank a poison for the soul
Anthony Johnson
Jews are people of color – here’s how they can support black people right now
Use your political and economic power to help us dismantle institutionalized racism, wear your Jewishness loudly and proudly, and treat us like true equals
When you treat us as just a statistic, you fail Jews of color like me
By
Marcella White Campbell
Jews have lived on every continent for millennia. Diversity has always been — and will always be — fundamentally Jewish.
Sarah Tuttle-Singer
Squeaky the Mouse is living in our house as the world burns down
With COVID-19 cases rising, Los Angeles on fire, and so much senseless death, it’s no surprise that I want peace at home — and that critter far away from us!
Top Ops
Judy Krasna
5 ways to improve Israel’s treatment of eating disorders
Since my daughter’s diagnosis 13 years ago, the standard of care has largely remained stagnant – which means a lot of sick people could be doing a lot better than they are
Efraim Zuroff
A tale of two Rwandan war criminals, one captured, one dead
The arrest of a kingpin of the 1994 genocide highlights the importance of delayed justice. So does discovering that another perpetrator died
Baruch Frydman-Kohl
Where is God in the pandemic? Wrong question
Rather than seeing God as decreeing disease, we’re better off recognizing how human beings affect the cosmos and, in turn, the divine
Mofaker Hur
I have posted watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; not to kill Iyad Hallaq
I am an Arab. I have a special need to be alive. I have a special need not to be afraid.
