Voices of 2022: A dozen posts that moved and shook us
By
Miriam Herschlag
Just in case you missed them: superb offerings from The Times of Israel blogs that touched hearts, stirred souls and nourished minds
Amir Avivi
For this government, security threats must outweigh politics
Israel must address the buildup of substantial terror armies at its doorstep, from Iran and its proxies to Hamas and the Palestinian Authority
Benyamin Moalem
The outgoing government’s unsung right-wing virtues
What could explain the right’s failure to laud the Lapid-Bennett team for increasing security, blocking the Iran nuke deal and curbing inflation?
David Bernstein
How American Jews should navigate Israel’s new political reality
3 key ways to move forward in your relationship with the Jewish state, even if you find its new leadership and their promises distasteful
Analysis
Naomi Chazan
Noam’s witch-hunting blacklists: frightening, pathetic, distracting
Toxic lists like these are not new, but their publication is a reminder of the misogynous and homophobic currents sweeping the new government into power
Falling in love with Judaism
By
Gerald Sussman
Often our first reaction is to attack their sincerity, but a Shabbat spent with Jews in Cameroon showed us something joyous and genuine
Samuel Lebens
Orthodoxy in the age of culture wars
Those targeting the ’LGBTQ+ agenda’ would show true Torah leadership by seeing what can be done in the name of peace and reconciliation instead
‘March 1968’ is a Polish movie. It’s also my story.
By
Tom Sawicki
When it became impossible to keep living there, my family left. The one parting gift from Poland was making us give up our citizenship
Top Ops
Erica Brown
My Peloton Hanukkah inspiration
When the instructors say they see me, it’s sappy, but it works: my holiday workout made me feel visible as a Jew, despite the baseless hate out there
Elizabeth Karpen
Nice try, Peloton, but no cigar
The feel-good ’Hanukkah’ class didn’t mention Jews, Judaism, or antisemitism, missing the unique Jewishness of both the holiday and the hatred
Steven Moskowitz
Hanukkah’s unwanted miracles
I celebrate the small army’s defeat of an empire – and then I recall how the Maccabees oppressed their less zealous fellow Jews
Jennifer Moses
The eight gifts of Hanukkah
As we dispel the darkness with the flames that are defiance in the face of endless antisemitism… can we also have some presents?!
