From the blogs
The story we carry: A letter to the Jewish People
By
Michael Tobin
No president can be the author of Israel’s existence. Our story began thousands of years before us – it will continue long after us
Monique Mogyoros

Despair is a mistake
By
Tzvi Arieli
A message to a disillusioned Israel from Iranians who were trying to bring down a totalitarian regime with their bare hands
Steve Rabinowitz
The critics of Obama’s Iran deal owe us an explanation
Washington hardliners said diplomacy was stupid. But their failed war is going to leave Tehran holding on to its missiles, its uranium, and its grip on power
Gil Mildar
Islamabad
In the US-Iran memorandum hammered out in Pakistan’s capital, Israel’s exclusion was not a flaw – it was the point
The mikveh experience is holy, not a political bargaining chip
By
Naomi Marmon Grumet

Gerard Filitti
A loyalty test for a latte
A Brooklyn coffee shop’s public shaming of a Jewish congressman exposes a society sliding into bigotry – one ’we don’t serve your kind’ at a time
From the blogs

By
David Harel
The violence, dispossession, and looming expulsions facing Bedouin communities in the West Bank are a moral stain that should weigh on every Israeli’s conscience
Tehila Wenger
The Palestinians – and Israelis – who believe in peace
The people I know are committed to seeing each other’s humanity, even through grief and despair
Lisa Shatz
I’m no Bibi fan, but why condemn him and not others?
US progressives paint Netanyahu as uniquely malevolent, and they don’t even mention the Mideast leaders who have truly terrible human rights records
I spent a day trying to break the OU’s Torah AI
By
Alex Vainer
I got it to make a few errors, but where it got me was its propensity to plead ignorance rather than hallucinate falsehood. What other chatbot does that?!
Top Ops
James Spiro
The two antisemitism legacies of Keir Starmer
The British PM made his party safer for Jews, but they feel less safe in the rest of the country. Will his successor do any better?
Saundra Sterling Epstein
I saw Orthodox acceptance of LGBTQ Jews grow. Now it’s evaporating
Rabbis and communities must stay committed to inclusion despite political and cultural pressure. If they don’t, the results will be devastating
Shlomi Nahumson
Father’s Day without a father: Lessons from children of Israel’s fallen heroes
The nation remembers its heroes, but children need to remember their fathers as people: Did he like fishing? Football? Dad jokes?
