Op-Eds

even a casual follower of the Irish press, which makes the British media look like Zionist propaganda, can not help but be taken aback by its harsh and biased criticism of Israel.

Imagine world response had the Chief Rabbi of Israel issued a decree banning Jews from doing business with Muslims. But in the instance of the Palestinian mufti and his superiors in Ramallah, everything seems to be fine -- once again, the international community turns a blind eye to the Palestinian leaders' apartheid and their terrorizing of their own people.

Justice Kavanaugh is extraordinarily well qualified by his educational and academic background and judicial history. He should be given a hearing and asked probing questions about his judicial philosophy and his approach to constitutional construction and precedent. Senators should approach this process with an open mind.

Israel has never been as successful as it is today. On the negative side, the ongoing escalation of anti-Semitism, especially in Europe, detrimentally affects the quality of life for most Jews.

French Jews have fallen victim to a form of ethnic cleansing, according to a manifesto signed by, among others, former French President Nicholas Sarkozy and former French Prime Minister Manuel Valls.

once you remove the straw man of anti-Semitism, you’re left with the double standard in all its glory: Israel alone has no right to host authoritarian leaders important to its interests, even as other Western democracies routinely host worse leaders with less justification

There are worrying signs that America’s Democratic Party is following in the footsteps of its Corbyn-led Labour Party cousin across the Atlantic. Radical elements within the Party are increasingly pulling Democrats farther to the Left.

Most of the anti-Semitism on the left takes the form of obsessive and paranoid falsehoods, distortion and double standards directed at the behavior of the State of Israel, with much of this onslaught echoing the imagery and tropes of medieval and Nazi anti-Semitism.

Next time someone asks, “But where will the Palestinians go??” give them this article and tell them about a straight swap on population transfer.

Why is the law necessary? In short: The delicate balance between Israel’s Jewish and democratic characters has been upset over the past 25 years by the Israeli Supreme Court. Former Chief Justice Aharon Barak and his ultra-liberal successors have dramatically diluted the Jewish dimension of the Jewish-and-democratic equilibrium. Time for a reset.

Why the Knesset’s efforts to define the Jewish state should be influenced by Diaspora objections.

Rational discussion of the halakha of abortions> Judaism IS pro-life, despite what some may claim.

PM Netanyahu has decided that it would be best if he takes on the right-wing parties well ahead of the next election rather than waiting for the final phase of the next campaign.

The country that will be most damaged will be Ireland itself. See how many Irish politicians are willing to sacrifice the jobs and livelihoods of Irish citizens for the gesture politics of boycotting Israel.

The president of the most powerful force for good on the planet takes an active role in securing Israel, proclaiming Yerushalayim Israel's eternal capital. But what does Pres. Trump, accurately, notice for all his hard work? That most Jews don’t even thank him!

How can we achieve global shalom and ahavah when so many family units are torn apart by machlokes? Let’s take the lessons of ahavas Yisrael from theory to practice. Bringing peace to our family strengthens us all!

Any wine touched by Mr. Blum must be treated like yayin nesach and any kisvei kodesh written by him must be burned.

Reminding the American public who killed Sen. Robert Kennedy, and why, raises questions about the legitimacy of the Palestinian cause.

IfNotNow supporters claim they want oppression exposed. And yet, human-rights abuses—treating women like family pets and thwarting free speech—will certainly be missing from their trip to the Palestinian territories.

With President Trump presenting Judge Brett Kavanaugh as his choice for the soon-to-be vacated seat on the United States Supreme Court, it is important to consider the future of the court--and how it relates to Jews.

I don’t have to be a sceptic to realize that if I have to imagine something medical that my doctor has not heard of, and makes no sense scientifically, then it is probably imaginary.

Partisans will disagree about Brett Kavanaugh, but those panicking about the end of democracy need to step back from the brink.

After the ruling class, the highest respect and wealth is given to the jihadist class or military leadership class. Otherwise, the jihadist or military class might turn against the leadership and Islamic system itself.

Apparently, no one wants or seems to be able to remove the ‎Iranians—neither from the border with Israel nor ‎from Syria proper.

Actually, Hezbollah is more than just a terrorist group. Hezbollah has been heavily involved in the illegal drug trade for well over a decade.

Over the years, many dismissed the Right's criticism of the Supreme Court as mere carping. Israel's Supreme Court's methodical bias should concern all Israelis regardless of their ideological beliefs. When judges choose to interpret the law through the prism of politics rather than justice, then it is the country as a whole that suffers.

If you can't beat 'em, change the rules...

Killing tests to protect educational racism. “Affirmative action now, affirmative action tomorrow, affirmative action forever.”

Israel should be defending itself against Erdogan by blocking his Jerusalem incursion, and taking the offensive against Erdogan by impeding his military build-up.

The “Israel Victory Paradigm” requires the abandonment of the Oslo concept, the concept that peace and security will be achieved through two states between the Sea and the Jordan River.
