The editor of one of the papers where I write regular op-eds requested more information on my message that if Jews are not united, they bring on themselves antisemitism.  Specifically, he wanted to know my sources for making this argument so insistently. He is correct; people need to know where …

People react to what hurts them the most and antisemites are no exception.  A global response to the coronavirus pandemic, which continues to wreak havoc with more than 50 million cases worldwide, apparently is not the priority for the UN’s World Health Organization (WHO).  Instead of assessing a global response …

The US election was not only the thermometer to measure the temperature of American politics, it also tested the waters between American and Israeli Jews on what they might consider their best common interest. The result was freezing cold. The American presidential race revealed that the alienation between both communities …

American Jews used to think that antisemitism in America existed only on the fringes of the Right. Currently, you find more of it in the mainstream Left.  In all likelihood, however, the Left and the Right will unite around the one thing they have in common: hatred for Jews. American …

A Times of Israel story recently reported festively, “YouTube removes Louis Farrakhan’s Nation of Islam channel.”  According to the story, YouTube announced that it has “strict policies prohibiting hate speech on YouTube, and [will] terminate any channel that repeatedly or egregiously violates those policies.”  Two lines later, however, you read …

Creating “a global inter-parliamentary task force to combat digital antisemitism” a few weeks before a presidential election isn’t credible, and that’s putting it mildly.  And besides, what can any task force do against hatred that comes from the kernel of human nature?  It would be more successful fighting against gravity …

Online antisemitism is nothing new but now it seems to be widely targeting our vulnerable youth more than ever before.  Hidden under false identities, haters freely reveal prejudice, bigotry, and antisemitic views across virtually all the unruled space of social media. Teenagers who identify as Jewish complain of constant hostility …

It is no secret that over the years, the relationship between American Jewry and the State of Israel has had its ups and downs.  In recent years, it has had more downs than ups.  Today, it’s at a point where many American Jews who care about Israel feel that it …

A survey that was recently quoted in USA Today found that almost “two-thirds of millennials, Gen Z, don’t know that 6 million Jews were killed in the Holocaust.” Worse yet, the survey found that “in New York … nearly 20% of millennials and Gen Zers incorrectly believe that Jews caused …

Less than a month after the normalization agreement with the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain has also joined the peace train.  I am all for it; peace and normalization are always better than war and animosity.  To be honest, I don’t see that the rest of the world is so …

A few days ago, a George Washington University African history professor confessed that she had pretended for many years to be of Afro-Latina descent, when in fact she was white and Jewish.  As part of her identity, she even spoke against the state of Israel and police brutality, and, according …

Forty years after the peace treaty with Egypt, and 26 years after the peace treaty with Jordan, Israel signed another peace treaty with an Arab country: the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Unlike the former two treaties, this treaty seems poised to create a warm relationship with a country that is …

The maelstrom of a global pandemic has recently kept worldwide antisemitism relatively quiet, but it does not mean that Jew haters are resting.  On Twitter, the antisemitic hashtag #JewishPrivilege, which was originally used to accuse Jews of racism and control over other minorities, rapidly became a top trending hashtag. In …

The longer the pandemic lingers, the more the world will turn a blaming eye toward us, the Jews. Anytime affliction grows around the world, it directs its anger at the Jews.  A few days ago, far-right white nationalist Canadian politician Travis Patron released a video stating,  “What we need to …

Be it a plague or a war, a flood or an earthquake, a revolution or a financial meltdown, in the end, there is always one culprit: the Jews.  In America, too, many already blame COVID-19 on the Jews, as is the case with the riots engulfing the tormented country. In …
