If Jewish houses of worship are now as controversial as abortion clinics, then antisemitism has reached a tipping point that requires a stronger response than mere buffer zones.
There are reasons to oppose the push to pardon Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that originated with President Donald Trump. But his farcical trial should still end.
The blood libels against Israel keep being repeated, even as evidence that the charges of genocide and starvation were untrue continues to pile up.
The Trump administration’s move toward designating the Islamist group as terrorists is long overdue. But it makes no sense to treat the Brotherhood’s sponsor as an ally.
Some leaders think they must make nice with the mayor-elect. But how can you work with a hostile mayor who openly sympathizes with those attacking Jewish houses of worship?
Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes and their enablers aren’t really arguing about foreign policy or “gatekeeping.” Their focus is on splitting Jews from their Christian allies.
Though Palestinian statehood remains a non-starter, the U.S. scheme is likely to result in part of the coastal enclave remaining in the hands of Hamas, not usher in an era of peace.
The liberal establishment stifled debate and smeared its foes, discrediting “gatekeeping.” But that’s no excuse for being neutral about real neo-Nazis and antisemites.
Reports about a 20-year plan of assistance make sense since most of it is spent in and strengthens America. But dependence on Washington is also a long-term liability.
Under fire from the left for speaking up against Mamdani and resented by the right for a decade of partisanship and woke betrayal, the organization stands at a crossroads.
A failure to stop the antisemitic effort to slander supporters of the U.S.-Israel alliance allows extremists to thrive and diverts attention from Qatar’s influence operation.
A new film about the trial of Nazi war criminals tries to argue that we’re all capable of such crimes. But justice for atrocities still depends on who is doing the judging.
Antisemites on the right are reading from the same anti-Israel playbook as their left-wing foes. Is this the future of the Republican and Democratic parties?
Democrats have largely surrendered to the antisemitic left that many on the right pushed back against, including the lunatic fringe in the GOP tent.
The media and a Democratic Party that moved the Overton Window to treat the call for Jewish genocide as an idea worthy of debate helped elect a Marxist mayor of New York.
As Democrats embraced Zohran Mamdani, the Heritage Foundation stood by Tucker Carlson and his platforming of Jew-hatred. There’s a crisis on both sides of the aisle.
Jews for Mamdani are blind and shameful. Jewish leaders who won’t take a stand about an antisemite becoming mayor of New York City may be worse.
If the White House and conservative thought leaders don’t condemn the former “Fox News” host’s platforming of Jew-hatred, a tipping point may soon be reached.
The mainstream media is trying to help the Democrats’ mayoral candidate silence criticism of his antisemitism and attempts to rewrite the narrative of the 9/11 attacks.
Dubious comments expressing moral equivalence and trust in an international force to demilitarize Gaza are at odds with the president’s tough talk about the terrorists.
