We cannot see into the antisemite’s soul. We can only judge them by what they say and do.
They do not understand that the Jews have no class, only ahavat yisrael.
In the face of a hate defined by hypocrisy, the Jews must begin to make good trouble.
At the United Nations, Netanyahu finally gave the Jews a furious and ferocious voice.
American Jews must understand that their current leaders cannot save them. And so, they must save themselves.
A Jewish Democrat lets slip that the progressive-Islamist movement is an existential threat to American Jews.
The right often finds the left inexplicable. It shouldn’t.
Today’s antisemitism is all the more dangerous because it is so ridiculous.
The 250-year American taboo on Jew-hating politics has been broken by the Democrats.
Today’s Jew-haters fancy themselves a caste of saints.
The Jewish community has become the “safety valve” for this lumpen class’s discontents.
If you want a picture of the future, imagine a Jew on the rack—forever.
