A series of unfortunate Thanksgiving events – and their upside for Jews
By
Yael Buechler
Early on, exclusionary discourse on the holiday led to dustups, clarifications and even an epic apology that helped Jews carve out a piece of the American story
Yossi Klein Halevi
To the students who walked out on Palestinian-Israeli dialogue
I’ve learned you can’t cancel a people: Mohammed Darawshe and I are modeling a painful conversation about injustice and existential fears
Hey American businesses: Hanukkah is not the Jewish Christmas
By
Chavi Eisenberg
Hanukkah celebrates Jewish freedom from assimilation; it doesn’t need Jewish-Christmas decorations or Jewish-Christmas movies or Jewish elfs-on-the-shelf
Barry Newman
An alternative (but plausible) Jewish Thanksgiving Day
What if the Puritans had aimed elsewhere when they went out hunting and instead of bagging a wild fowl, brought to the table something really foul, a wild boar?
Elana Kaminka
The US gun algorithm is broken. Just ask the IDF
Unlike Kyle Rittenhouse, my son completed months of weapons training in the Israeli army – and he still doesn’t have access to his gun if he’s not on duty
Rosh Hanikra to Tel Aviv: A solo hike along Israel’s coast
By
Larry Luxner
A hundred miles of some of the most interesting archeology and people and beautiful vistas and random adventures in the world? Cross that off the bucket list!
Shayna Goldberg
Private parts are not all that is off-limits
If we want our kids to grow up to be healthy, autonomous, independent, self-reliant adults, we cannot teach them through fear, guilt, self-doubt, or shame
Mordechai Soskil
Grateful for Thanksgiving
When we ask our family what everyone is thankful for, no one says anything interesting. They’re glad to be together, and blah, blah, boring. My list is better
Nathan Lewin
Maine law discriminates against private schools for religious minorities
Why would Biden’s Justice Department aggressively oppose the fight for religious liberty – unless it’s simply out of spite for Trump?
Hate Israel’s high cost of living? Don’t blame supermarket chains.
By
Michael Humphries
Like Hawaii and post-Brexit Britain, Israel is expensive because it’s an island economy, located far from its trading partners. That’s not going to change any time soon.
Top Ops
Francis Nataf
Hanukkah marks a triumph over cultural colonialism
Was the Maccabees’ provincial fundamentalism better than the Hellenists’ progress and enlightenment? That’s beside the point.
Asher Lovy
Is the Orthodox reaction to sexual abuse allegations changing?
The Orthodox Jewish community rose up against accused abuser Chaim Walder, despite his prominence in that world. This kind of response needs to become the norm
Aron Heller
Who is the outlier, Trump or Biden?
With the world trending authoritarian, will Trump turn out to be the first of his kind while the moderate Biden turns out to be the last of his?
Paul Ben Ishai
The 5G dilemma for Tamar Zandberg
The planned new broadband cellular standard is one of the least green technologies around and amounts to a solution for a problem that doesn’t exist
