From the Blogs
The historic new UN resolution is reason for hope
By
Isaac Herzog
Ever since the important vote on November 29, 1947, endorsing the creation of the Jewish state, the UN has been remarkably unhelpful to Israel – until now
Sagiv Asulin
Treating a war as if it were a PR problem
Israel can disrupt Iran’s distant nuclear program and intercept thousands of incoming rockets, but it is struggling to defeat campus protesters
Nadav Tamir
Disqualifying Ra’am would disqualify our democracy
The party helmed by Mansour Abbas represents a moderate religious and political movement committed to Muslim integration into Israeli society
Esther Sperber

Israelis, go visit a European Christmas market this year
By
Sharon Pardo
No, not for the shopping. When Israelis and Jews share casual space with cosmopolitan Europeans, they create new breathing space together
Sogand Fakheri

While Tehran boasts of triumph over Israel and the US, its people struggle with soaring grocery prices, censored internet, and disintegrating leadership
Inclusion is not the problem – it’s the answer
By
Liat Ellert
Resilience-based tools will help our kids manage uncertainty and fear by giving them the stability they need after long years of pandemic and war
Sagit Alkobi Fishman

Hiking from sea to sea, I felt the invisible burdens Israelis carry on our backs and found out what binds this country together
Where history is made
By
Matthew Rosenberg
Judaism looks for divine service not on the mountaintops or in the monasteries, but in late night diaper-changes and parent-teacher conferences (Vayetzei)
Tanya White
An escape escalator to heaven or the divine call to earth?
Israel’s draft-evaders need a theological recalibration: A return to Jacob’s vision in which God pulls him not away from the world but into it (Vayetzei)
The double embrace of Kaddish
By
Ami Hordes

Top Ops
Sarah Sassoon
A million Jews expelled from Arab lands, my family included

Stéphanie Courouble-Share
When October 7 denial meets Holocaust distortion
Hamas’s massacre is being recast, minimized, or erased, drawing on the same playbook long used to reject Jewish suffering
Jose Lev Alvarez Gomez
Donald Trump’s Abrahamic family tree
The so-called ’divider’ and ’racist’ has both Jewish and Arab grandchildren and he’s spending his presidency stitching together the geopolitical map
