Those who hold the title of rabbi carry an obligation to weigh the impact of their words.

Four mothers. Four photos of sons starved to the bone. A Geneva meeting. The Red Cross promised “everything in their power.” And then—nothing.

‘Even Fox News missed the point. Their headline—“NY Times' erroneous cover photo… joins series of media blunders”—called it an error, a media blunder. But this was no “oops.” It was propaganda. And the proof is in the cropping.’

A 14-year-old girl yells “Mashiach” on a plane.

She and 43 other Jewish campers are dragged off by police. Their director is bloodied and handcuffed. Their crime? Speaking Hebrew.

This isn’t the 1930s. This was July. This year.

Pull Quote (formatted as a blockquote):

“She still had bloody marks, red, bright red, on her wrists, because of the handcuffs. It was horrible… It’s the worst experience of my whole life.” — one of the campers

Leadership requires moral courage. Our children are watching what these institutions choose to say—and what they choose to ignore.

“Am I good enough?” Too many kids are letting social media answer that question for them. Here's how we can help them find a better answer.

‘What binds these people together — Finkelstein, Glazer, Blumenthal, Butler, Pappé — is not ideology. It’s a desperate yearning to be accepted by the world that hates them. To be seen not as Jews, but as good Jews. Useful Jews. Jews who prove their morality by turning against their own.’

‘If Vance is to be believed, the goal had never been complete obliteration, but only a delay in what Iran will inevitably try to do once more. Which of course means that somewhere down the road, a new generation will have to live with the Damocles sword of a nuclear Iran hanging over their heads. And that is neither fair nor right.’

“The idea of a friendship between Israel and Iran can be hard to reconcile with years of “Death to Israel” chants and regime-backed propaganda. How do we square what we’ve seen and heard with what Bibi tells us? Is there real evidence to support his assertion that the Iranian people might want peace—or even friendship—with Israel?”

‘In exchange for this performative voyage, Greta got what she came for: selfies, headlines, and a chance to pretend she was the moral conscience of the world. But what she didn’t expect was Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz offering her and her selfie-yacht companions a front-row seat to truth.’

Living under fire. Sometimes you seethe. Sometimes you shrug. Always, you stay.

Alan Dershowitz calls The Preventive State his magnum opus.

But the New York Times won’t touch it.

Why? Because he defended Trump. Because he’s an outspoken Jewish Zionist.

America under Trump is prioritizing its own borders, its own defense and economy. For Israel, this is a call to rely on our own resolve.

‘Rumors of a rift began to flow, a narrative built from a sequence of events. The US would no longer help Israel fight the Houthis. Israel was excluded from the itinerary of Donald Trump’s Middle East tour. Trump accepted a very expensive private plane from Qatar. There was a secret US deal to free Edan Alexander that was in the works for months without Israel’s knowledge. The murmurs that Trump has turned against Israel have been gathering steam. Nobody I know wants to talk about it much, but there is thick nervous tension in the air.’

The most haunting question of course isn’t about what’s happening now—but where this all could lead. In Germany, the radicalization of universities helped normalize Nazi ideology. Academic complicity didn’t just reflect fascism; it fed it. Professors trained bureaucrats and camp guards. Rectors joined the Nazi Party. University violence, once ignored, metastasized into something far worse.

‘Emhoff may be an expert in the Final Solution, having killed off his line. But in no way should we consider Doug a suitable person to honor the memory of those who had their lines cut short by Hitler and his “Final Solution.” A Jew who voluntarily cuts short their own line is doing Hitler’s work for him and should not be serving on a Holocaust Memorial Council. The Holocaust Memorial Council should be peopled by those who embody the Jewish will to endure, not those who shrug as the legacy of their ancestors fades away.’
