My thoughts on politics.
With 39 hostages released as part of a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, Israelis waver between joy and concern. Joy because the release of hostages comes as a relief, especially in regard to small children, many of whom saw their parents murdered on that fateful October day. With 39 hostages released as part of …
On October 7th, Hamas terrorists crossed into Israel and massacred 1,400 men, women, and children in the largest attack since the Holocaust. Roughly 240 civilians were taken to Gaza, and with the exception of 5 captives, remain in captivity. Since that time, a tide of antisemitism has swept the world. Jewish people are living in …
Antisemitism seems to be on the rise in Georgia, this time in Macon. On Sunday, residents of Beall Hill woke up to hate-filled pamphlets from the Goyim Defense League. It’s the third public expression of Jew-hatred this summer—two in June, and now this. As everyone knows by now, antisemitism is surging in America and it …
Israelis protested against judicial reform on Saturday night. The reform is meant to curb overreach, as justices are by law, allowed to overturn any government decision they don’t like. Israel now has a right-wing government and the court is packed with left-wing justices. When the court overrules the decisions of this government, they are subverting …
US Ambassador Tom Nides said that Smotrich is stupid and he would throw him out of a plane. American officials say they won’t meet with him in Washington, and even AIPAC won’t meet with him.

The contretemps began at the beginning of February, when SJP members tried to …
The Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal by the Arkansas Times on Tuesday in its lawsuit against the trustees of the University of Arkansas (U of A) after a longtime advertiser in 2018 called the paper to certify that it does not boycot Israel, as per state law. The ACLU, arguing on behalf of …
Election manipulation, it seems, is not a myth, and naturally, the Jews are behind the misinformation campaign. Well, actually one Jew, Israeli security expert Tal Hanan, CEO of Demomam International. Apparently, Hanan’s team of operatives have been manipulating elections for more than two decades in dozens of countries. The Guardian broke the story after conducting …
UN resolutions against Israel are a dime a dozen and also meaningless because they have no force of law. Resolutions are statements. This time, the resolution is a demand that Israel drop the sanctions the Netanyahu administration levied on the PA, due to terror. While not all of them voted in favor of the resolution, …
Kenneth Marcus, Chairman, The Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights under Law, has a piece in Newsweek about the postponement on implementing the Executive Order on Combating Antisemitism, originally signed by Trump in 2019. “This order had been a major milestone, codifying important rules under which Jewish students receive civil rights protections in American …
