The future of the “government of change” is still in doubt, and its prospects are dubious. But despite the political attacks, the prospective new prime minister has a lot to offer.
"$2,600 tents, $100,000 shacks, and $300,000 toilets." OH MY!
Jewish groups are having trouble confronting “Zionphobic” violence because it offends those who think they have a right to foment anti-Semitism and deny Israel’s right to exist.
Anti-Zionists claim that violence against Jews discredits their cause; however, delegitimizing Jewish rights encourages hatred, whether or not leftists are willing to admit it.
Aristotle had his theories about human behavior, as did Rousseau, Kant, and numerous other geniuses. One need not feel compelled to accept Freud’s theories any more than theirs.
Why attack American or French or British Jews? Why curse "the Jews"?
The problem of Gaza was created by the belief that land could be transferred to the Palestinian Arabs to provide them a viable opportunity for self-governance.
In 1948, the armies of seven Arab nations invaded Israel. They failed to wipe out the newly reborn nation, but Jordan occupied part of Jerusalem and ethnically cleansed its Jews.
Prominent Arab writers and political analysts hold the Iranian-backed Hamas responsible for the violence and bloodshed in the Gaza Strip over the past week. These Arabs can also see that if one cares about the Palestinians, why would one want them ruled by terrorists who place weapons caches near hospitals and schools, and use children as human shields?
"Die Jew" and "Free Palestine."
If they’re speaking to me, I often wonder: Does it not occur to them that I might feel uncomfortable hearing these words?
Just in case you have somehow missed the person who goes by those initials, AOC actually stands for Alexandra Occasionally Coherent although there is much debate about the word “occasional.”
The left's moral compass always shows north as south and east as west. And men giving birth
And the AP is complaining about what? Israel warned it that the building was a target. AP chose to share a building with Hamas and pretended not to know about it.
The situation that has arisen can no longer be seen as one centering on the question of individual rights but of collective survival—and it must be treated as such.
America is the land of systemic opportunity, not systemic racism. The only people to deny these facts are America's homegrown America-haters. They see America as a force of evil at home and abroad.
In the past, Iran used its proxy in Lebanon, Hezbollah, to attack Israel. Iran is now using its Palestinian proxies to achieve its goal of eliminating Israel and killing Jews. This is a war not only between Israel and the Palestinian terrorist groups. Rather, it is a war waged by Iran against Israel.
None of the great rabbanim of the past who discussed the value of a general education stressed its financial value – not the Rambam, not the Vilna Gaon, not Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch. They stressed instead its intrinsic worth.
These [Arab] leaders and media have filled the Arab people with so much hate against Israel that participating in a positive, productive endeavor becomes a major crime.
"[Hezbollah has become] a criminal organization whose danger has gone beyond the stage of terrorism and military operations.... The Hezbollah project has become the destruction of people through drugs."
Solidarity with the victims of the Mount Meron tragedy is a sign of hope. Still, the impulse to turn it into a political issue and cast blame on the ultra-Orthodox may prove more powerful.
A “bail reform” law led to the release of violent criminals who struck again and now to that of a man who vandalized synagogues. And still, the ADL and Jewish left are silent.
Sur-PRIZE: The Genesis Prize was created to make American Jews more pro-Israel. Instead it’s become just another American ‘foundation’ funnelling cash to the organizations of the anti-Israel Left.
This week--despite the resounding failure of the “land-for-peace” formula—3 former IDF generals penned an Op-Ed, urging the Biden administration to “keep open a path to an eventual two-state solution”
People need meaning. After food, that is the greatest human need.
Americans were relieved by the verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial. Still, the JCPA and ADL shouldn’t join with partisans and radicals to exploit it to push a racialist agenda that hurts Jews.

The Palestinian-Arabs’ claim for sovereignty over what they now insist is their long yearned-for homeland arose only after 1967—i.e. when it came under Jewish administration

Atarot's sister-settlement, N'vei Yaakov, has now become two flourishing Jewish neighborhoods – N'vei Yaakov and Pisgat Ze'ev – in which many tens of thousands of residents reside.
The ADL wants Tucker Carlson fired for racism. Carlson says his views on immigration are the same as Israel’s. Why both assertions are wrong.
So, too, is America hated for placing the Bible at the center of its value system, its belief in being a "second" chosen people, its freedoms, and its capitalism.
A conspiracy theory that explains everything in the world as racism.
These Palestinians oppose any recognition of Israel's right to exist; they oppose any form of normalization with Israel; they oppose any peace talks with Israel and have repeatedly denounced any peace process with Israel as an act of treason.
The mainstream media have a mission that has nothing to do with reporting truth.
Are you a New Yorker who wants to live a normal life? Move to Florida.

A misleading article about historians and Polish complicity has exacerbated a controversy that distracts us from the need to fight contemporary anti-Semitism rather than relitigate old battles.
Dispassionate analysis of the political deadlock in Israel will reveal that this state of suspended political animation is the result of nothing more than what the Jewish sages designated as “baseless hatred” among Jews.
A new population study claims that there are 7.6 million Jews in the United States. But is it including people like the vice president’s stepdaughter who say they aren’t Jewish?
In America today, more people fear the print, electronic, and social media than fear G-d.
You read that right: The number of incidents "soared" and "jumped" to 28 – in a city of 8.4 million people.
A new guide to the book we read at Passover seders offers some food for thought about why there’s more to the holiday than a ritual meal.
Netanyahu’s critics are again predicting the demise of democratic rule should he and a right-wing/religious-party coalition emerge from the next election. They’re still wrong.
For 20 years, Democrat sexual predators have run the state of New York
Palestinian leaders are much too busy attacking Israel and demanding that the International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecute Israelis for alleged "war crimes" against the Palestinians to notice the suffering of Palestinians at the hands of an Arab country.
Newspeak restricted vocabulary so as to limit the people's ability to think “dangerous” and "subversive" concepts such as personal identity, self-expression and free will.
More and more American women have come to rely on the government, not on a husband. The results have been calamitous.

n counterjihad circles, there lives the belief that there is some ideal country that has the right approach. The cold hard truth is that there isn't one.
With two weeks before Israel goes to the voting booth yet again, Benjamin Netanyahu remains the favorite. But will antipathy among his diverse list of foes be enough to finish him?
When and where does 2+2=5? The Oregon Education Department announced that teaching there is "one right answer" in math is an expression of white supremacy.
"...and by the way, there was a Jewishness to it … we had bagels.” BAGELS!!
Liberals advocate for immigration policies that are creating a humanitarian disaster, yet show their partisanship by not protesting measures they denounced when Trump was in office.
Tens of thousands of grandfathers and grandmothers are dead. The Democrats killed them. The Biden administration is covering it up and protecting the perpetrators from facing justice.
The last three years of the Obama presidency were "catastrophic in every sense of this word," "Will Biden fall into the same trap? Washington's standing declined during the Obama presidency. Will Biden repeat Obama's fatal mistakes?

An Israeli Supreme Court ruling recognizing non-Orthodox conversions is more symbolism than substance. The fight to curb the power of the rabbinate must be resolved at the ballot box.

Pop culture may have more influence over young viewers than news shows. That makes a so-called comedic endorsement of an anti-Semitic blood libel a serious problem.
Seventy years after leftists were purged for their politics, the practice is revived.
He popularized conservatism with wicked and sometimes abusive humor. Is abhorrence of his worst comments more important than support for Israel? Or is this really about partisanship?
In addition to declaring the Israeli presence in the West Bank a “sin against God and humanity” (without offering one word of condemnation of Palestinian terrorism, incitement, or pay-to-slay policies), the Kairos Palestine document promotes — you guessed it — BDS.
Though the call finally came, what was the message? American presidents have tried and failed to influence elections in attempts to derail Netanyahu. If that’s what the president is considering, he should think again.
From the world of academia to the world of the media, no criticism of the Left’s worldview will be tolerated. Under this new administration things can only get worse.
Real education starts at home, not necessarily in the classroom.... Palestinian leaders need to tell their people that Israel has the right to exist. They need to tell their people that peace and normalization is good not only for Israel, but also for the Palestinians.
The left knows it can only win elections when the majority of Americans are ungrateful.
A columnist’s contempt for Trump voters who plowed her driveway without being asked reminds us that our Founding Founders believed in a cure for what Jews call “baseless hatred.”
A controversy about the West Bank is exposing the legacy Zionist institution to attacks from the left and the Biden administration. It should stand its ground

A weakened Jerusalem significantly weakens Israel and its value to the United States.
I will now state with equal certitude that the American medical profession as a whole and many individual doctors are responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of Americans – very possibly, more than that
By Daniel Pipes
Five Muslim parties are mainly engaged in this intricate, consequential struggle for the Temple Mount: the Palestinian Authority, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Republic of Turkey, and the Kingdom of Morocco. Each has distinctive strengths and goals.
The latest illiberal proposals for curbing speech in the name of fighting hate or untruths are being cheered by some liberals. But among their targets could be Zionists and Israel’s leaders

The last thing any Palestinian officials wants is to be labeled a traitor because, in the world of Fatah and Hamas, that crime is punishable by death.
Force someone to utter – and believe – an untruth, and all you do is create resentment, which can explode in your face down the road. Moreover, justice must be based on truth. It cannot be based on a lie.
Is pointing out a Biden appointee’s record of support for an anti-Semitic BDS movement really as bad as singling out a Jewish official because her family supports Israel?

For four years, the media and their party, the Democrats, told us every day that Trump is a fascist, a dictator, a racist, and a white supremacist.
From calling for the destruction of Israel to the National Security Council.
If it’s good enough to impeach President Trump, it’s good enough to impeach Obama.
{Reposted from the Sultan Knish website} When the Black Lives Matter riots raged in cities around the country a spectrum of the leftist oligarchy, from the New York Times to the ACLU to the leadership of Washington State University justified them with Martin Luther King’s quote, “A riot is the language of the unheard.” It […]

By Daniel Pipes

I have come to understand the average German living under Nazism and the average Russian living under communism for another reason: the power of the media to brainwash.
Contrary to the media’s spin, Republicans have never normalized violence. And Republican political power doesn’t depend on political terror and violence. Leftist power invariably does. The Left began a new age of political violence in 2016. It can turn it off anytime it wants to. The problem is that it won’t
The assault on the Capitol was shocking and disgraceful. It’s also a reminder that everyone’s rights, including minority groups, depends on the preservation of order and respect for democracy.
The Georgia Senate runoff hinges on the tribal culture war about the president, rather than on whether an effort to legitimize an intersectional radical like Raphael Warnock could succeed.
