How can we wean students off electronic devices and help them appreciate the transmission of ideas through the classic use of the written word?

The 17 people participating in the Kosher Troops mission to Israel didn’t receive the press coverage of the groups of celebrities and politicians who recently visited, but we were warmly welcomed wherever we traveled in Israel.

Did I have good reasons for returning to America? At the time I certainly thought so. Would I have been a particularly good soldier? If I had been drafted to a combat unit (as most Hesdernikim were in my time), almost certainly not.

I've lived in Israel for the majority of my years on earth. So please tell me... WHEN DO I BECOME AN ISRAELI?!

To be sure, the Houthis are strangely drawing the U.S. into the fray by targeting U.S. and other nations’ shipping in addition to Israel’s and the U.S. has gone out of its way to accuse Iran of being deeply involved in the Houthi attacks on Israel. So, the bottom line is that at all events, the U.S. is materially engaged.

Mayor Adams did not exempt the NYPD from his new across the board 5% cut of municipal agency budgets in order to pay for the city’s multi-billion-dollar deficits occasioned by the immigrant crisis. So that things were destined to take a turn for the worse seemed preordained.

Without even getting into the Congressional testimony of Harvard’s president, Claudine Gay, on genocide against Jews or her scholarship, or lack of it (against the scholarship of scholars she allegedly plagiarized), this article will focus on the students at Harvard who may still be among the best and the brightest.

"The court did not rise to the occasion, but that does not mean that we should be irresponsible," says MK Simcha Rothman, one of the reform effort's key architects.

So when you watch an anti-Israel demonstration on television, please understand who is behind it and what are their ultimate goals, because the next target is American democracy -- and you.

Knowing the difference is the key to understanding the Middle East

Teaching positions are a privilege, NOT an entitlement.

Another case of the pendulum swinging in the opposite direction concerns the United Nations and diplomacy in general

This beautiful soul was killed because of a war started by a Palestinian society that produced and still supports Hamas — which seeks not to build and celebrate life, but to destroy it.

Accordingly, the Hamas Massacre has taken “Two-State” off the table, even if Biden and Harvard students don’t know yet, and Israel can and must continue populating Judea and Samaria to one million in the immediate months ahead

Rather than addressing the causes of the conflict, the US and West do not seriously confront the Arabs about incitement against Israeli citizens in their schools, mosques and media and do not hold them accountable for continuing to provide financial support to families of convicted terrorists who are either incarcerated in Israeli prisons or who have died while murdering Israelis. Instead, they blame Israel for intransigence

We are a people of life. We do not support martyrdom. Needlessly endangering a life is considered a serious sin. Saving a life is the paramount act, one that supersedes everything else.

Imagine craving a hug, not from you, but from hundreds, thousands of strangers online. Every like is a pat on the back, every follower is a whispered you're okay. Social media is this crazy dopamine machine, feeding on my insecurities and making me chase validation.

I was surprised that the university presidents did such a poor job of responding to questions that should not have been so difficult for them to answer.

While the gaping wounds caused by their deaths will never truly be healed, the fallen heroes of this war still live!

I felt removed from important American decision-making. But I noticed that there was a subject that received little discussion or attention from the career foreign-policy experts at the State Department.

In other words, China and Russia are preparing to go to war together. As no country threatens either of them, they are undoubtedly thinking of perpetrating more acts of aggression.

Absent the merit of truth, or at a minimum of context, anti-Israel activists brazenly reprocess history as it unfolds so that the events of October 7th themselves are denied.

The resolution also says nothing about the Hamas practice of locating military personnel and weapons in civilian areas which put civilians at particular risk as the IDF prosecutes it war against Hamas.

The right of voters to decide who will make binding decisions for them is as fundamental in a democracy as you can get.

Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah party is no better than Hamas. It has celebrated the Oct. 7 attacks

The timing of the decision is as relevant as ever. IDF soldiers and veterans should not have to worry about their reputation being tarnished through malicious and reckless allegations…
