It is axiomatic that if one refuses to recognize a problem, one cannot find its solution. JD Vance is gaslighting and pandering to the Jewish community.
Look at how he distinguishes antisemitism from racism and for what purpose.
1) The Woke Right or Woke Reich as some call them is real and their ideas are being mainstreamed by J.D. Vance's close friend Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens and others.

1) The Palestinian movement didn’t emerge from some noble dream of “liberation”. It grew out of the 20th-century pan-Islamist and pan-Arab projects - the same old attempt to restore a civilizational empire, dressed up as modern resistance.

Parsha Vayishlach
Genesis 32:4–36:43

I hate to say it and many will object to my doing so, but reading the drama of this parsha, it sounds sort of like a soap opera or a Latin American telenovela.
1) Jacob, now very rich after being away in Haran for 20 years, returns to the land of his Isaac and Abraham with all his family and wealth. After all the years away, he is concerned about how he will be received back in the region by his brother and his clan.

Dan Foster: Israel Debout
English Translation: Israel Stand Up
[Verse 1]
Under the burning sky, their steps are sure,
A people standing tall that nothing can break.
The world speaks loudly but forgets to look,

1) The media clouds the mind, too many misguided voices.

But when the truth strikes, everything else fades away—
It is the light that wins when the storm passes.

Pre-Chorus
They can invent stories without proof,
But the truth remains, solid as a rock.

The Palestine Youth Movement Boston and BDS [Boycott, Divest, Sanction] Boston organized the event to call for boycotts of Israel and for the end to U.S. aid. The location and phrase linked to calls for violence drew sharp criticism due to the site's painful history,

@ShabbosK Is this hiring in contravention of your settlement agreement with Harvard? Perhaps a conversation with Leo Terrell and @AAGDhillon is in order.

Also, the January 2025 group settlement included commitments like adopting the IHRA definition of antisemitism, annual reporting on Title VI responses, & educational initiatives— could arguably demonstrate Tettey-Tamaklo's hiring

It would take maybe an hour to burn down the house.
