From the blogs
For these do I weep: For walls breached again
By
Daniel Gordis
I’d thought vibrant Israel had so changed the Jewish experience that it made the mourning of Tisha B’Av rote ritual. October 7 proved me wrong
Zion Evrony
Who needs to rule Gaza? There’s only one viable option
A responsible, conditional transfer of power to the Palestinian Authority is needed – not the ‘day after,’ but now
Asaf Malchi
Not studying, not serving – and now, not funded
With the AG canceling funds for ’drop-out yeshivas’ where students study only part time, the young men should draft and help the country and themselves
from the blogs
The moral stakes of parenthood after death
By
Irit Rosenblum
The sperm of a dead man can be used to produce a child, even when the deceased’s wishes are not known. Life must trump silence
Barak Epstein
For Ezra Klein, Jewish fear is a semantic debate
His analysis of Jewish division sees the fire but minimizes the alarm, reducing the safety of millions of Jews to a thought experiment
Sandi Mann
Is it safe to be openly Jewish in Europe?
I knew I wouldn’t heed the advice to hide my Star of David when traveling through Europe. Within 24 hours, I felt differently
from the blogs
The war within: A dispatch from Gaza
By
Izzy Ezagui
When the call came through on my IDF reserve unit’s WhatsApp thread, I rushed in from LA and jumped back into the fighting with both feet
Daniel Polisar
Still wondering if the IDF has a gear shortage?
Soldiers fresh out of training are sent into Gaza with helmets that are older than they are and not designed for today’s battle conditions
Jeffrey Herf
The genocide accusation and Hamas’s disappearing responsibility
Blaming Israel alone for Gaza’s suffering erases Hamas’s role, distorts genocide’s meaning, and echoes old anti-Jewish tropes
Leah Aharoni
The draft debate doesn’t matter; here’s what does
If we can’t debate the draft without dehumanizing each other, we should do nothing rather than destroy each other. Nothing justifies this hatred
My Zionist last name
By
Amy K. Milligan
My Irish Catholic dad raised me to be the independent thinker I am today. He also sent me on wild goose chases through Israeli cemeteries
Top Ops
Michael Kuenne
You don’t compare Gaza to Auschwitz ever
Even on social media, brandishing the Nazi death camp to make a point against the Jewish state is not an accident, but indifference or, worse, malice
Mijal Bitton
Can we mobilize American Jewish normies?
Mainstream Jews value balance and family—but their absence from civic life risks the very future they hope to protect
