Opinion
US-based sheikh calls on university students to ‘fight Zionism’
For anti-Israel activists like Sheikh Osman Umarji, there is no legitimate course of action Israel can take to defend itself because Israel itself is illegitimate.

Opinion
The campaign to make Ilhan Omar’s anti-Semitism unassailable
The knee-jerk support from minority organizations, the media and the left is part of broader effort to dismiss any criticism of the Minnesota congresswomen’s statements as its own form of bigotry.

Opinion
Linda Sarsour’s NYU makeover
She warned her audience against forces that seek to divide Jews and Muslims, and Jews and black people. She never mentioned that she was one of those forces.

Opinion
Anti-Israel AMP’s inadvertent ‘truth’
Criticizing Israeli policies is not what got Marc Lamont Hill or Ilhan Omar into the headlines, no matter how many times that argument is made. And AMP is not interested in a peaceful outcome to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.)
Opinion
Looking on the bright side of Ilhan Omar’s anti-Semitism
In some ways, Omar is bringing a level of candor to Washington. It is abhorrent and hateful, but it helps pull the veneer off so many voices that claim they merely oppose Israeli policies or criticize its government.

Opinion
CAIR official mocks Muslims in U.S. military after praising terrorists
Instead of praising the U.S. military for overturning long-standing practices to accommodate religious practices, CAIR official Zahra Billoo basically labeled American Muslims in the military as traitors for participating in combat operations targeting terrorists in predominately Muslim-majority countries.

Opinion
Ben & Jerry’s endorses Women’s March as anti-Semitism issues take root
If the ice-cream company wants to support the Women’s March, they might join voices like actors Alyssa Milano and Debra Messing, as well as the Women’s March Alliance, Women For All, Zionness and many others.

Opinion
CAIR official who slams Muslim facilitators of interfaith dialogue wins community award
Perhaps Billoo is a “community builder”—just as long as “Zionists” or U.S. law-enforcement personnel are not involved in her sense of community.

Opinion
Linda Sarsour’s blood libel
Sarsour already has drawn accusations of anti-Semitism for her refusal to condemn Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan’s Jew-hating sermons and for her opposition—not just to Israeli policies—but to the very principle the led to the country’s 1948 independence.

Opinion
Why are elected politicians legitimizing terrorist front group?
In jumping to appear before cameras and rallies to condemn this week’s Supreme Court ruling on President Trump’s travel ban, several elected Democrats empowered and legitimized an Islamist group whose leaders continue to engage in radical, incendiary speech.

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.)
Opinion
Murphy’s very misguided ‘anti-Muslim’ smear
Sen. Chris Murphy can support or oppose whomever he chooses. In this case, however, in criticizing someone he sees as unjustly smearing people, he himself unjustly smeared people who, in many cases, may not differ from him as much as he’d like to portray it.
