Ending 2021 on a high: 12 Israeli secrets captured from above
By
Yoav Cohen
It’s the Israel you’ve never seen before, from a little-known shipwreck 15 minutes from Tel Aviv to the middle of the desert under the Milky Way
Amit Bracha
The courageous, historic decision to halt gas exploration
In pausing the search plans, Energy Minister Elharrar recognized the dire threat of greenhouse emissions. Now we need a ‘Climate Law’ to set longterm targets.
Shmuley Boteach
Billie Eilish is right about the dangers of pornography
A human need for erotic imagery seems innate, so cater to it in a ’kosher’ way and protect yourselves from pernicious exploitative internet porn
A way out of the narrow places
By
Rachel Sharansky Danziger
With the full significance of the Omicron variant still uncertain, I find freedom from the panic inside me by looking outside myself – at you
Yehuda Kurtzer
When a US Muslim leader said Zionist Jews can’t be trusted allies
The line she drew between the few ’good’ (anti-Zionist) Jews and all the rest sows division and polarization. Jews and Muslims who work together know better
To love another person is to see the face of God
By
Todd Berman
I’ve prayed at sunrise on Masada. I’ve cried at the Western Wall. But my holiest prayer was in a crowded room in the hospital where my grandson is in the NICU
Analysis
Nerya Meir

Jonathan Muskat

They jailed him for insulting Hitler on an unopened envelope
By
Zack Rothbart
Convicted in Poland for insulting the head of a friendly nation, Jewish hero Nahum Halberstadt was freed on Christmas Day
Top Ops
Shlomo Fischer
Needed: A two-pronged strategy for antisemitism from the right and left
US Jews must understand the different causes of – and remedies for – the right-wing’s deadly political fantasies, and the left’s totalistic utopianism
Nathan Lopes Cardozo
Do not become a chimpanzee
Unlike their simian counterparts, human beings can tolerate mundane repetitive tasks and get past the boredom, for they can see the bigger picture
Dan Perry
Yes, Mr. Yehoshua, two states
The novelist’s obit for a peace deal that splits the land is a defeatist and unnecessary concession to the right: The situation is not impossible – just difficult
Tuvia Book
