Enough with the ‘ex-Orthodox’ drama
By
Allison Josephs
Hollywood excels at telling stories of outsiders and redemption (think Luca and Shrek!), so why this repeated depiction of Orthodoxy as freakish?
Henry Abramson
Banning critical race theory will gut the teaching of Jewish history
These ’memory laws’ barring educators from linking old hatreds to systemic racism would make it nearly impossible to present the legacy of antisemitism
John Hagee
Ilhan Omar’s antisemitism poses a moment of reckoning for Democrats
Just as we have called out fellow Conservatives, Nancy Pelosi must choose between real leadership or shameful capitulation to the enemies of the Jewish people
Noam and Rachel’s Excellent Adventure
By
Dan Senor
A new program for Jewish students counters the perverse spread of anti-Zionist, antisemitic and anti-American currents in US educational culture
Francis Nataf
Why Israeli and Arab narratives are still at war (and how to change that)
We must model what we will likely have to demand from the Palestinians: namely, validating their heritage, at the same time that we cherish our own
David Matlow
When it comes to Israel, the world has an anxiety disorder
The diagnosis fits: Overgeneralization? Check. Disqualifying the positive? That too, along with all-or-none thinking and emotional reasoning
Jerusalem is a thriving city. Why on Tisha B’Av do we mourn its destruction?
By
Adina Lewittes
Jewish remembrance isn’t only about recalling the past; it’s about building the future. Perhaps there should be a new, middle-ground approach to observe the day
Sheldon Kirshner
Israel’s irresponsible opposition leader
Netanyahu is playing childish games to score political points – at the expense of Israel’s security and its demographic well-being
Joseph Nichol
International antisemitic conspiracy QAnon gaining traction in Israel
Hebrew Facebook and Telegram accounts with thousands of members are spreading the wild, Nazi-like theories of Satanic, cannibalistic pedophilia
God doesn’t wear a Borsalino
By
Eugene Korn
God may be in Bnei Brak, but God is also in Israel’s policy-making government offices, pushing justice, fairness, and well-being for the entire Jewish people
Lisa Gelber
Nothing random about gun violence
Max Lewis faced a ventilator for the rest of his life or removing life support – it matters little that the bullet that forced that decision wasn’t premeditated
Matti Munk
Converting Israel’s office buildings to apartments is doomed to failure
This supposed housing crisis quick-fix appeals to voters, but it’s a money-loser for developers. Vacate inner-city apartments used as offices instead
Gerard Heumann
Jerusalem’s mayor is building without a plan
It’s not that Moshe Lion is consciously trying to make Jerusalem ugly, but that is what is happening
Todd Berman
A meditation for the 9 Days
Baseless hatred destroyed the Second Temple; recognizing the divine image in every human sparks the love needed to rebuild it
Branching out, turning in, and the mulberry tree down the road
By
Sarah Tuttle-Singer
I watch my daughter grow and I miss the little girl she used to be, and I wonder at the wise young woman she is becoming
Top Ops
Manya Brachear Pashman
Elie Wiesel’s head is now in a cathedral. Should it be?
Given Christian complicity in the Holocaust, the bust’s installation at the iconic church raised questions. That might just be the whole point.
Dov Linzer
Words create worlds
Is someone disabled, or a person with a disability? What about ’special needs’ or ’neurodiverse’ or ’on the Autism spectrum’? Language can have huge consequences
Ophir Falk
End the experiment
Naftali Bennett’s ’disruptive’ government, which depends on anti-Zionist parties, undermines Israeli democracy and threatens the Jewish State
Ben Sales
Omondi on Medine Cohen: ‘White…Jewish American Princess’
The fashion podcaster wanted to call out the white privilege of a New York, Jewish Ramaz grad. Now she’s being accused of antisemitism.
