New post: "Making Pittsburgh shooting about Trump diminishes problem of anti-Semitism" washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/making…
By all means, criticize Trump's rhetoric, as I have been doing for years. But by narrowly seeing anti-Semitism through the lens of Trump, it conveys the idea that once he's gone, we can go back to ignoring the problem. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/making…
I mostly kept myself away from Twitter this weekend, but as somebody who has written about festering anti-Semitism for years, I find it frustrating that some only care about the issue if they can weaponize it against Trump washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/making…
From 1996-2016, through 3 presidencies of different parties, there were 19,023 anti-Jewish hate crimes recorded. That made up 2/3 of the total anti-religious hate crimes in the U.S even though Jews only account for about 2 % of the population washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/making…
Media now portraying any criticism of George Soros as anti-Semitic. Yet where were they when Obama took aim at Sheldon Adelson at WH Correspondent's dinner? Laughing uproariously, actually washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/making…
And don't tell me Obama was not fueling conspiracies about Jewish donors. He elevated to DefSec a man who decried the influence of the "Jewish lobby," and regularly attacked influence of donors on Iran debate, questioning interest in U.S. security washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/making…
Meanwhile, anybody who claims they merely oppose Israel gets to launder virulent anti-Semitism -- media constantly ignore the clear connection. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/making…
Pt about how anti-Semitism gets excused as criticism of Israel: Last year, a German court ruled that the attempted firebombing of a synagogue was merely an expression of protest against Israeli actions in Gaza. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/making…
According to one study, anti-Semitic incidents were eight times more likely at U.S. college campuses that had at least one anti-Zionist group, such as Students for Justice in Palestine. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/making…
I have little patience for those who wish to virtue signal concern about anti-Semitism today only to later on defend Hamas the next time they fire rockets toward Jewish civilians and Jews defend themselves. washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/making…
