The antisemitism that Rose Ritch endured at the University of Southern California (USC) has been all over the media. Ritch recently resigned as vice president of USC’s undergraduate student government after she was harassed for months by fellow students for one reason only: Ritch is proudly Jewish and openly expresses her Jewish identity by supporting the Jewish […]

(September 14, 2020 / JNS)  The Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, better known as HIAS, was for the better part of a century responsible for helping settle generations of Jewish refugees in their new homes in the United States. From 1881 through the release of Jews from the Soviet Union in the early 1990s, the organization worked not […]

The tenure of vile Jew-hater and Nation of Islam leader Rodney Muhammad as president of the Philadelphia branch of the NAACP may be coming to a close. Yet, stubborn questions remain. The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) has worked hard to shed light on the depth of Rodney Muhammad’s incessant efforts to incite anger, resentment, […]

The relentless, previously failed attempts of extremist groups J Street and New Israel Fund (NIF) to demonize, silence, and “cancel” strong defenders of Israel and the Jewish people, is now being repeated by JCRC (“JCRC pushed to oust ZOA,” The Jewish Advocate, Sept. 4, 2020), who always prided itself on dialogue and having a “ […]

To read the statement signed by more than 600 Jewish groups last week, in which they identified their denominations, synagogues and organizations with the Black Lives Matter movement, it’s clear that they believe they are on the right side of history.

As I read it, my thoughts reverted to the ordeal endured by US Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh when the #MeToo movement attempted to smear him over alleged […]

It is no pleasure for me to show that Shmuley Boteach again carelessly gets things wrong or distorts truths. Shmuley condemns me, asserting that after my two-hour conversation with Black rapper/actor/director/screenwriter Ice Cube, I “granted clemency for his antisemitism through private conversations, rather than public penance.”  (“Celebrity Antisemites Can’t be Absolved through Private Apologies,” Algemeiner, […]

According to critics, application of Israeli law to security and settlement zones in Judea and Samaria will ruin everything. It will undermine the “peace process” (as if there was one), and wreck Israel’s international reputation (as if everybody loved Israel nowadays). Critics say attaining sovereignty will undermine the peace process and ruin Israel’s reputation abroad, but these […]

Most groups that represent the interests of American Jews have made their opinions clear. They believe it is imperative that there should be no doubt about the community’s support for the Black Lives Matter movement. That was illustrated by a declaration of broad backing from more than 600 Jewish organizations and synagogues in June. The signatories believed […]
