Against the backdrop of a rising tide of anti-Semitic incidents across the country and the failure of many mainstream Jewish organizations to condemn anti-Semitism emanating from the left, communities of color, or Islamists, I’ve joined a group of Jewish-American millennials in founding a brand-new non-profit organization called HaShevet.
It is my honor...
Look, I’m all for free speech, mainly because it outs the racists and bigots so I know who to avoid.
But Louis Farrakhan’s racist and anti-Semitic views came out a long time ago and he needs to go away.
We all know Pink Floyd musician Roger Waters hates Jews and Israel. He doesn’t hide his anti-Semitism. Now he is spreadling the falsehood that Israel taught U.S. police the tactic used on George Floyd. We have covered extensively this blood libel being spread by anti-Israel groups, including our recent Investigation: Anti-Israel...
This story is so outrageous. The student in question was allegedly targeted by members of the faculty as well as graduate students.

Louis Shenker wouldn’t win a popularity contest on any progressive campus. He is Jewish, a conservative, an...
Samantha wrote about the spike in anti-Jewish violence in the wake of George Floyd’s death. It has not stopped.
Someone sprayed anti-Semitic messages on a bedsheet and spread it over the Nashville Holocaust Memorial at the Gordon Jewish Community Center on Saturday during the Jewish Sabbath.
We have seen this movie before. Whenever there is a high-profile death of a Black person in the U.S. at the hands of local police, anti-Israel activists try to hijack the anger and redirect it at Israel.
The death of George Floyd in the custody of Minneapolis police is another example. We...
Regular readers may remember my two-part investigation of the anti-Israel movement’s appropriation of coronavirus pandemic panic.
In April 2020, we published an in-depth investigation: How Anti-Israel Activists Are Hijacking The Coronavirus Crisis And Turning It Against Israel. Our research demonstrated how proponents of the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) campaign against Israel have exploited the COVID-19 pandemic: namely, blaming the Jewish state and its supporters for as many...
Do not let the United Nations fool you. Although it may have essentially closed its doors in favor of online meetings in the age of coronavirus, its obsessive anti-Israel bias is alive and well. Through its numerous bodies, the UN falsely paints Israeli policy, not COVID-19 itself, as the primary threat...
Regular readers may remember my Thursday, April 9th research post, Investigation: How Anti-Israel Activists Are Hijacking The Coronavirus Crisis And Turning It Against Israel. Though the original post clocked in at close to 10,000 words, we managed to distill it down; the short version was published today in JNS.
We have written a lot about how anti-Israel activists routinely hijack causes, events, and crises unrelated to Israel, using “intersectional” theory to turn those issues against the Jewish state.
That phenomenon is playing out again with the coronavirus pandemic, providing the ‘usual suspects’ with yet another issue to exploit.
Omar Barghouti, one of the original leaders of the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) Movement, has told his supporters to take an Israeli-made vaccine for the Wuhan Coronavirus if the Jewish State succeeds in developing it.
Kudos to President Bollinger for making this statement. We need more leaders in higher education to do the same.

I want to speak about a difficult matter—about a concern I have regarding the risk of a rising anti-Semitism on...
From March 1-3, 2020, I attended the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) Annual Policy Conference in Washington, D.C. on a press pass. As part of my coverage of the conference, I spent nearly four hours interviewing, taping, and photographing anti-Israel protesters who had gathered outside the venue.
Though their chants of...
Austria’s parliament passed a unanimous resolution on Thursday condemning the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement (BDS) as antisemitic. The resolution, tabled by the ruling People’s Party, was supported by all political groups represented in Austria’s National Council.
*Insert confused face gif*
2020 Democratic primary frontrunner Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) announced he will skip the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) conference since the platform allows people to “express bigotry.”
Rasmea Odeh is a terrorist who not only was convicted of killing two Israeli students, she lied to get into the U.S. and become a U.S. citizen.
Odeh was convicted of immigration fraud and deported in September 2017. Now she’s making a comeback on campuses, glorified by groups like Students for Justice...
