My thoughts on politics.
It’s been a year since the black day that our fellow Jews in Israel were brutalized in ways so inhumane, so cruel, that the brain refuses to process the information, though we know all too well that it happened. Most of the hostages are still in Gaza, and many of them are corpses, awaiting a …
A New York public defenders’ union has become a hotbed of antisemitic rhetoric, in the months following October 7. Now, the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law, has filed a complaint, accusing the Association of Legal Aid Attorneys (UAW 2325) — thought to be the oldest union in the country — of …
A group of pro-Hamas rabble-rousers, showed up at the orthodox Shaarey Zedek Congregation and Hebrew school in Los Angeles’ San Fernando Valley. A large group of pro-Israel demonstrators met the Hamas supporters head on and things got pretty rough. In the end, the LAPD arrived and broke up the fight, assigning the protest groups to …
Since October 7, Israelis have been conscious that war is fought not only in Gaza, with weapons but by Hamas undermining the psyche of the Israeli public with images and stories of the atrocities it committed and continues to commit. This psychological war aims to instill fear and anxiety among Israeli citizens and to create …
Nikki Haley, during her tenure as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, demonstrated a strong commitment to Israel’s security and sovereignty. Her vocal support for Israel in international forums and her staunch defense of its right to self-defense earned her praise from many pro-Israel advocates.

Some 30 anti-Israel Harvard students went on a 12-hour-hunger-strike. Naturally, much laughter ensued. It made not a bit of difference for the people of Gaza. Not to mention, Jews fast longer than that on Yom Kippur every year, and we’re doing just fine, thank you. The New York Post wins the award for funniest comment …
One California school district has spent a quarter of a million taxpayer dollars to teach children hate by way of a “woke” curriculum, called (what else?) “Woke Kindergarten.” The results of this curriculum? Lowered test scores. What sort of lessons does “woke” kindergarten teach? From Legal Insurrection: woke kindergarten is a global, abolitionist early childhood …
Columbia University defended its invitation to Hatem Bazian to be the keynote speaker at its “Day of Dialogue” event. The Hamas-supporting Bazian is the founder of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP). A professor at Berkeley, Bazian has called to dismantle Israel, and stated that “it’s about time we had an intifada in this country.” …
October 7 and the Hamas attack on the Jews had extreme repercussions outside Israel, for Jews everywhere. In America, in Europe, on and off campus. Protests abound, often violent, and always annoying to those inconvenienced by them, for instance, when protesters take to the streets and block traffic. There is only so much that can …
