Peace: The Missing Israeli Election Issue

Not so long ago, of course, the peace process was Israel’s top voting issue, almost its only one. But in a poll published last month, self-identified centrists and rightists both ranked the peace process dead last among six suggested issues of concern. Even self-identified leftists ranked it only third, below corruption and closing socioeconomic gaps.

Tlaib, the Democratic Party, and Jew-Hate

First, many Democrats suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome, which prevents them from assessing serious matters, such as antisemitism, in rational terms. Tlaib is anti-Semitic to her core but because she is a Trump hater, she’s given a free pass.

Europe’s Moratorium on Jew Hatred is Over

The assault on Jewish rights, rites and traditions – the likes that have not been seen since the Nazi era – will only get worse, because in the next few years, as the last of the Holocaust survivors pass on, there will be no more direct witnesses to the world’s darkest hour.

Hitler Didn’t Care About Your Race

Two National Leaders, Two TV Addresses to Fire up their Base

Both these appearances were cameo performances that served to highlight, in very different ways, the alarming trend now accelerating across the West: the breakdown of respect for the rule of law and democratic institutions.

Is Rashida Tlaib Guilty of Bigotry?

To single out only the "Jew among nations," and not the dozens of far more serious violators of human rights is bigotry pure and simple, and those who support BDS only against Israel are guilty of bigotry.

Send the Hebron Observer Force Home

For 20 years now Israel has renewed the hostile organization’s mandate to operate in Hebron. Otherwise, its presence would have ended long ago. It is now one of the oldest observer forces in the world, and it contributes to Israel’s image as an outlaw state that demands special observation.

Were Chaucer, Marlowe, And Shakespeare Anti-Semitic?

Geoffrey Chaucer (1343-1400) is the author of The Canterbury Tales, a collection of 22 stories, mostly written in verse; Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593) was a...

Peace And Love Won’t Defeat Anti-Semites

Mass murderers who target certain ethnic groups are evil. Mass murderers who randomly slay people at country music concerts, movie theaters, and high schools are evil. Attending a diversity-oriented activity will not make one bit of difference to a mass murderer.

Vicious Anti-Semitism – From A Congresswoman

Tlaib accused U.S. senators sponsoring a law against the BDS movement of looking out for the interests of Israel rather America's, ironic considering that she literally wore a Palestinian flag while pledging herself to the Palestinian Arab cause when she was sworn into office.

Why Is The IDF Drafting Women Against Their Will?

Every Jew has a moral obligation to protest and lobby against the IDF’s tactics and policies in drafting women – whether these women are religious or not. Refusal to do so is equivalent to enabling abuse and immorality.

Israel and Social Justice

The BDS and social justice warriors are so misaligned and so distorted, they fail to represent real justice. Have they ever done anything beneficial to the very people in whose name they claim to be carrying out their activities?

NGO Monitor: Amnesty Int’l Planning an Assault on Israel & Jews in 2019

Leaked documents seen by NGO Monitor indicate that Amnesty International will conduct a series of intense campaigns singling out Israel in early 2019. Objective: To delegitimize Jewish historical connections to Jerusalem and elsewhere, as well as promote BDS against Israel.

Why the US Diaspora Misunderstands Israel

Progressives (and not just in the United States) think that the two-state solution would fulfill Palestinian aspirations.

Has UNIFIL Forgotten What Its Mandate Is?

Instead of maintaining just a monitoring mode, UNIFIL does have a mandate to search homes when there is evidence of violations. Clearly, the role of UNIFIL was not intended to be as passive as it has become.

International Institutions Are Failing to Protect Israel

Not only did the UN fail to condemn the terrorist group threatening Israel’s south, it also failed to take action against the terrorist group threatening Israel’s north.

France in Free Fall

Foreign-funded Left-Wing NGOs Ready to Influence Israeli Election

Their common denominator: grassroots activism, declared political objectives and considerable funding from abroad. This network of NGOs could become a central player in the upcoming election.

How Historians Will See Canary Mission Years From Now

Canary Mission tracks social media and videos, capturing BDS, anti-Zionist, and anti-Semitic expressions, triangulating them into individual profiles that expose and create permanent highly-visible records of the words and images BDS and SJP leaders actually use.

Israel Must Make a Decision on Gaza

For over a decade, Israel has avoided deciding whether its interests are better served by maintaining the current “two Palestinian states” status quo, or by seeing Gaza rejoin the Palestinian Authority.

Iran Hosts Palestinian Terror Group, Sparking Fears of New Attacks

Tehran supports Palestinian terrorism on Israel, violating multiple sanctions laws

The New York Times Incentivizes Hamas Violence

Contrast what Israel does with how the Palestinians treat terrorists who willfully target and kill Jewish children, women and other civilians. The Palestinian Authority pays their families rewards – in effect bounties -- for their willful acts of murder. Hamas promotes and lionizes terrorists who kill Jews. But you would not know any of that from reading the one-sided New York Times screed....All in all, it is a shockingly irresponsible report.

Regulating Yeshivos? A Call For Compromise

The law gives everyone just enough rights to hurt children, not help them.
