My righteous wife
By
Hagay Lober
When she showed the yeshiva students a photo of our son killed in Gaza, I got ready to swoop in and rescue her
Yosef Blau
Violence in Judea and Samaria (aka the West Bank)
Just as we condemn Arab terror attacks against Jews, we must be fervent in our condemnation of Jews terrorizing Palestinians
Ruthie Hollander
What we lose when we acknowledge Palestinian suffering
Recognizing others’ pain doesn’t deny or diminish our own; rather, it protects our humanity – and helps us emulate God
Forgiveness: My intersex journey
By
Talia Avrahami
I thought I was transgender. I was even fired for it. But an expert in Jewish law and medicine knew better: I was female all along
Shuki Friedman
The ultra-Orthodox are firing blanks in their war on the draft
Haredi threats over draft evasion expose a sector that contributes little to Israel’s economy, security, or core institutions
Shimon Sheves
Our last chance to stop the madness
Business and industry leaders must shut down the economy, not in order to replace the government, but to demand proper governance
The sound and fury of Israel’s protests
By
Robbie Michaelson
Mass protests may fill the streets with moral force, but without real leverage, they leave Netanyahu’s grip on power intact
Faraj Alexandre Rifai
From Damascus to Paris: How I found antisemitism twice
The French Republic taught me not to hate, but the nation that reconciled me with the idea of possible coexistence is changing
Steven E. Zipperstein
The Gaza genocide claim fails the test of law and fact
The case against Israel does not meet the key legal criteria of intent and scope, nor is there a threat to the Gaza population’s overall survival
Not gonna lie: Here’s who I trust
By
Sarah Tuttle-Singer
It’s not the speeches, the photo ops, or the promises, it’s the tailor and the coffee grinders and the one who does my hair
Emmanuel Navon
The prime minister of Denmark gets Israel all wrong
You rebuke Netanyahu, but he’s the one standing between Iran’s jihadist coalition and the rest of the free world – including Denmark
Bernard Black
Build a first-class refugee camp for Gazans in Israel
The plan would take civilians out of harm’s way and out of Hamas control while the Strip is rebuilt as a military and governing power
Cologne, coexistence and the audacity of disrespect
By
Zimra Vigoda
Britain’s crude gesture during Hatikva said more about them than about an Israeli team that embodies coexistence and dignity
Top Ops
Yossi Kugler
Muslim antisemitism: Dangerous but modern
Islamists only recently conjured a false history of conflict and dragged anti-Jewish Quranic verses out of the theological attic
Omer Weinberg
The unsung heroes of this war
When war hits home, leaving many in need of shelter, medical care, and other support, it’s time to stop neglecting those who help: Israel’s public servants
Jason Baker
How to protect zookeepers? Get rid of zoos
In the wake of the mauling death at a Jerusalem zoo, it’s worth asking why animals that should be roaming free are held in captivity
Catherine Perez-Shakdam
Francesca Albanese’s soft-gloved embrace of terror
To deny that Hamas is a terrorist group, ruling by fear and waging war without conscience, numbs the world to its explicit goals and invites the next massacre
