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?

Mass immigration has riven Canada with ethnic tribalism.  We have become the world’s first 5th Columnist State.

On November 8, the House of Representatives (212 Republicans and 22 Democrats) voted to censure radical Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) because she has “levied unbelievable falsehoods about our greatest ally, Israel, and the attack on October 7.”

One of those outrageous falsehoods was clinging to the false claim that Israel bombed the al-Ahli hospital in Gaza. But guess what? Our professional “fact checkers” haven’t located that lie…or any other nutty utterance, like her laughable claim that “from the river to the sea” isn’t a Hamas slogan about the eradication of Israel, it’s an “aspirational call for freedom” and “peaceful coexistence.”
