The anti-Semitism that drove Hamas’s 7 October pogrom has reverberated around the world. The oldest hatred is making a grim comeback, far beyond the Middle East.

Ugly scenes of Jews being mobbed have recently blighted Australia. Last week, around 150 Jewish congregants of the Central Shule synagogue in Melbourne were forced to abandon their worship when over a hundred ‘pro-Palestine’ protesters descended on their Shabbat service. When at least 80 pro-Israel counter-protesters turned up to defend the synagogue, 30 police officers were needed to separate the two sides.

Feminist groups are whitewashing Hamas’s crimes

After accompanying British troops as they liberated Bergen-Belsen in April 1945, Richard Dimbleby produced one of the most viscerally horrifying — and powerful — dispatches in the BBC’s history. “I find it hard to describe adequately the horrible things that I’ve seen and heard,” he began, “but here unadorned are the facts.”

Maybe running around, smashing things and defacing monuments, including sacred ones, aren’t the effective persuasion tools that Islamists and leftists think they are?

In October, the leftists and Islamists were touting a YouGov poll in which 58% of Brits said that there definitely should be a ceasefire and 18% said that there probably should be.

Current numbers are less enthusiastic with only 33% urging a push for a ceasefire.

Jews in American academia seem to have been surprised by the recent wave of antisemitism. I would like to ask them and other American Jews four questions.

While Israel is fighting to eradicate Hamas, the shockwaves of the war in Gaza have reverberated thousands of miles away. In a surge of activism, large numbers of students on America’s college campuses have lined up behind the Palestinian terrorist group, waving the Palestinian flag and expressing antisemitism at a level never seen before in America.

The pro-Hamas activism began already days after the October 7th Palestinian terrorist attack in Israel. It has continued since then, and it seems to have taken our academic institutions by surprise. This is especially the case with Jewish-American members of the faculty, who are now struggling to understand the new reality in which they live and work. 

It’s all OK cuz she’s “fighting for peace.”

Here’s a partial summary of what it was like to be Jewish in America this past month.

In Los Angeles, an elderly Jewish man was struck on the head by a pro-Hamas protester and later died of his wounds. In New Orleans, a Jewish student who tried to stop a classmate from burning an Israeli flag was attacked and had his nose broken. In Manhattan, a Jewish woman was assaulted and sustained injuries to her face and neck after she confronted two passersby tearing down posters of kidnapped Israeli citizens. The list goes on.

How should we think about these attacks?
