By
Katie Cunningham
Dara Horn is right that Holocaust education hasn’t reduced antisemitism. My research shows that it can
Moti Leitner

The established parties have left our community poorer, more isolated and at odds with the rest of Israel. We’re building an alternative from within
Shuki Friedman
Israel’s largest ultra-Orthodox party? Likud
From draft exemptions to education and public funding, the party of Begin is increasingly embracing a worldview at odds with its Zionist roots
I’m that 14-year-old
By
S. J. Schwaidelson
I was one of the girls Shlomo Carlebach molested. Now I’m telling my story in a documentary that refuses to look away
Elkana Bar Eitan
October 7 changed my mind about Israelis voting from abroad
Eligibility to cast an absentee ballot should depend on meaningful ties to Israel, not the ability to afford an Election Day plane ticket
Dan Illouz
Reclaiming the right: Why I left Likud and found my home in Yisrael Beytenu
The current leadership protected cartels, stifled economic competition, allowed Haredi draft evasion, and did too little to truly win the war. That’s no way to run a country

Spacious residences, resort-style amenities and stunning natural surroundings – discover a new standard of living in Jerusalem.
Danny Danon
The most important election no one is talking about
It’s easy to forget how the world is counting on the next UN secretary-general; the right person might even save the United Nations from its current decline
Mick Davis
How Netanyahu taught Israel to give up on peace
Bibi didn’t create Palestinian rejectionism or October 7. But he spent years obstructing a two-state solution – and telling Israelis that hope itself was naive
The King was in the field. So was my wife. And a lion
By
Akiva Herzfeld
A lion in the Kenyan grass brought an Elul metaphor startlingly to life — but the Jewish community in Nairobi gave it deeper meaning
Menachem Rosensaft

As President Rivlin’s chief of staff, I came to understand Haredi resilience: Don’t think you can frighten or embarrass the community into abandoning its principles
I stood up to fight stigma. I didn’t expect it to follow me home
By
Marni Davimes

Parshat Ki Teitzei has plenty to say about relationships. CoronaCrush gives you seven minutes to figure one out
Shaving my son’s hair
By
Todd Berman
When he was little, he cried in protest while I cut his hair. This time, he asked for another round with the electric razor – and the tears were mine
Top Ops
Richard Ferrer
Sometimes, I really wish there were a God
