Arnold M. Eisen
After the election, laughter
News of Joe Biden’s election victory brought a sudden, exhilarating sense that possibility had been restored to America.
The US Supreme Court has no WASPs – and that matters for Jews
By
Sam Lehman-Wilzig
The waning of religiosity in the US corresponds to a rise in hyper-political partisanship, and with it a surge in political extremism
Yehuda Kurtzer
In Georgia, a scary partisan push to pit Blacks vs. Jews
Kelly Loeffler’s use of Israel as a wedge issue turns Jews’ complicated commitments into a tool for use by opportunistic politicians
Josh Hammer
My fellow Jewish Republicans, don’t give up
The next 4 years will be tough for conservatives, but we can still advance pro-Israel policies under Biden. Here’s how
David-Seth Kirshner
The 43-mile divide
I believe that Red State and Blue State citizens all love America; on that basis, we can root out meanness and disrespect and make room for multiple opinions and thoughtful debate
Garlic, chicken soup, and common sense
By
Audrey N. Glickman
I’m a Jewish mother. I think chicken soup cures all ills. But rapid testing, N-95 masks, contact tracing, and distancing do an even better job against COVID-19
Joseph Gitler
Waste and want: Dumpsters overflow with the food poor Israelis can’t afford
If schoolkids learn that dumping food is wrong, they’ll bring that message home, discipline their families gently, and reform the country naturally, from within
Rachel Klausner
Israel, you promised to save the last 9K Ethiopian Jews. There is no time left.
With the country on the brink of civil war and reports of civilian massacres, the community’s left behind remnant is in a shambles
Shabbat with the militias
By
Smadar Lavie
’You are Jewish?!’ asked Beard One. ’Yup. I am,’ I answered, feigning confidence. ’But you said you were from Israel!’
Joshua Berman
The audacity and humility of my mentor, Rabbi Jonathan Sacks
His generous guidance of 30 years taught me how to summon my hopes over my fears, my strengths over my weaknesses
Erica Brown
When scholars die
Rabbi Jonathan Sacks was first and foremost a servant leader. With his death, the world lost a prophetic and courageous voice— and I lost my rabbi
Zack Rothbart
Tolstoy and the Jews: It’s complicated
The great Russian author acknowledged that he had ’met and known a great many good Jewish people.’ Does that make him an anti-Semite?
What’s worse than finding a mouse in your house at 4:30 a.m.?
By
Sarah Tuttle-Singer
Or: How I defied (Israeli macho) expectations and kept the raw sewage out of my home — and brought the light in
Top Ops
Jenni Frazer
Oh, it’s fine, we asked some Jews and they said it was okay
The Guardian’s claim it consulted Jewish staffers before running a cartoon with Corbyn’s head on a platter is disgraceful
Naomi Chazan
Coronavirus has redefined security
As with gender inequities in war, the pandemic has differential impact across society. Luckily, we have a blueprint for inclusive, fair crisis management
Hayim Leiter
What a mascot and a priest taught me about being a rabbi
In one profound moment of truth, I learned the value of doing the right thing, saying less, and turning tragedy into transformation
Michael Saenger
Texas saves Progressivism
The left can learn plenty by looking at what Lone Star State voters don’t hate: oil, religion, police, America – not to mention Zionism
