Paid propagandists for the radical anti-Israel group IfNotNow recently confronted presidential candidates in New Hampshire, demanding that the candidates support ending the presence of Jewish homes and communities in the historic Jewish homeland – land that the Jewish people are entitled to under international law. But that’s not exactly how IfNotNow’s paid agitators put it. […]

President Donald Trump could have expressed his deep concerns about extremist anti-American, antisemitic, Israelophobic Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) in a more appropriate way by using a less controversial phrase. Still, we understand his frustrations with these extremists that led to his using an inappropriate phrase. The vicious attacks […]

I once opened a speech by confessing to a crowd of Jews that I used to hate them. It was 2006 and I was a young native of Somalia who’d been elected to the Dutch Parliament. The American Jewish Committee was giving me its Moral Courage Award. I felt honored and humbled, but a little […]

It’s no secret that I think that the Zionist Organization Of America is the number ONE group that fights anti-Israel and worldwide anti-Semitism successfully. My proof-attending their latest Washington DC mission, attended by over a thousand people and honored with the presence of over 35 elected officials. I was only able to attended the luncheon […]

Upon capture by Israeli forces, Irfaiya made plain the motive underlying his foul deed when he told his interrogators, […]

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) has spent two weeks proving that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) made a big mistake promoting her to the House Foreign Affairs Committee — an error that is hurting her party and the country. Omar failed to apologize for antisemitic remarks, mocked idea that Israel is a democracy, comparing […]

He has falsely accused the Jewish state of poisoning the Palestinian-Arab water supply, practicing “apartheid” and training New York City police to kill black Americans — rhetoric that is bound to sow resentment against Jews and potentially incite violence. “When we struggle together we too often adopt a civil rights tradition which romanticizes nonviolence.… And […]

That didn’t take long. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), newly elected to the U.S. Congress, has already posted a “correction” to the world map in her congressional office, marking Israel as “Palestine.” She has thus effectively indicated her support for the Palestinian Arab objective of eliminating the Jewish state of Israel on her first day in office.

We are living in a time of increasingly unbridled antisemitism and Israel-hatred. Jewish lives are at risk. An onslaught of pro-BDS activity plagues our campuses and country. ZOA receives calls every week from Jewish students who have been physically and/or verbally attacked. Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) rallies call for throwing Jews off their […]
