Likud refusing to back changes to Right of Return
November 30, 2022

The Likud has informed its right-wing allies that it will not support a proposed amendment to the Right of Return, Reshet Bet reported Wednesday morning. Following the November 1st general election, all of the Likud’s future coalition partners called for the removal of the “grandfather clause” in the Law of Return. Added to the Law of Return in 1970, the amendment enables non-Jews with at least one Jewish grandparent – or non-Jews who are married to Jews – to seek Israeli citizenship.  Earlier this month, a Likud official told Channel 13 News that this is a demand that could incite the wrath of the Jewish communities in the Diaspora, in particular in the United States and the countries of the former Soviet Union, where many potential immigrants have no connection whatsoever with Judaism other than a single Jewish grandparent.

UNRWA condemns subterranean opening found beneath Gaza school
Luke Tress
December 1, 2022

The UN agency for Palestinians said on Wednesday that it had discovered a “man-made cavity” underneath a school in Gaza, calling the excavation a breach of law and a threat to children and staff. The United Nations Relief and Works Agency, known as UNRWA, said in a statement that it had “recently identified a man-made cavity underneath the grounds of an UNRWA school in Gaza.” “The agency protested strongly to the relevant authorities in Gaza to express outrage and condemnation of the presence of such a structure underneath one of its installations,” the statement said…Israel has long pushed for UNRWA’s closure, arguing that it helps perpetuate the conflict with the Palestinians since it confers refugee status upon descendants of those originally displaced around the time of Israel’s War of Independence, unlike other refugee groups around the world.

Genocidal antisemitism is conquering American campuses
Kenneth Levin
November 30, 2022

…It is noteworthy, in this context, that a chief promoter of anti-Israel propaganda, Muslim Brotherhood-linked Qatar, is also the largest foreign donor to American universities, providing over a billion dollars from 2011-2017. This largesse is not a coincidence. A primary objective is to promote the anti-Israel agenda on campus and “persuade” faculty to disseminate anti-Israel slanders on campus and beyond. That academia is the main institutional purveyor of Israel-hatred and antisemitism in America should not be surprising. Students and faculty have been receptive to revolutionary and extremist ideologies for a very long time. They have been more than happy to clothe themselves in communist red or fascist brown according to the current fashion. Today, they wrap themselves in a combination of the two: the colors of the far-left and Islamist fascism. Both of these ideologies are defined by their hatred of Israel and Jews. READ MORE

The FBI should investigate the attack on US citizen in Jerusalem bombing
Stephen M. Flatow
November 27, 2022

The Biden administration’s Justice Department recently announced that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating the accidental death of an Arab-American journalist in Israel. So why isn’t it investigating this week’s intentional attempted murder of a Jewish American citizen in Israel? Shireen Abu Akleh, a reporter for the Qatari media agency Al Jazeera, was accidentally shot and killed while covering a shooting attack by Palestinian Arab terrorists against Israeli soldiers in Jenin last May. The incident has already been thoroughly investigated by the Israeli government, journalists, and so-called human rights organizations. None of the inquiries could determine who actually fired the fatal bullets, nor could they find evidence that the shooting was intentional. READ MORE

Best explanation of why CRT and ethnic studies are antisemitic

AMERICANS FOR PEACE AND TOLERANCE
Legal Scholar Suzanna Sherry: CRT and DEI Inherently Racist and Anti-Jewish
November 22, 2022

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (“DEI”) are extremely important human rights ideals, and educational programming is an essential element in the effort to achieve them. On campus and in the workplace, there has been a dramatic and pervasive rise in DEI personnel and programming. At the same time that ever-increasing resources are devoted to DEI, however, there has been an unprecedented explosion in virulent Jew-hatred. DEI, and its parent ideology, critical race theory (CRT), uphold the racist and Marxist libel that Jews are blessed with an inordinate level of “white privilege,” and, because the Jewish state “oppresses” Palestinians, Jews are guilty of racist atrocities against non-white people. This presentation by Vanderbilt legal scholar Suzanna Sherry explains that the ideas behind DEI and CRT are inherently racist — thus anti-Jewish — and “we have to get rid of them.” READ MORE

“Britain is changing into a multicultural state. The bonds of society that keep everyone together are fraying fast”

An altered state: There is no such thing as a multicultural society
Melanie Phillips
November 30, 2022

…A society only exists where its inhabitants regard themselves as bound together by a culture composed of language, religion, law, literature, traditions, customs and so on expressed through civic and political ideals embedded in the historic development of that culture. Different ethnicities can sign up to the norms established by that culture, even if they are newcomers who didn’t share in its development. But there has to be an identifiable overarching culture to which they can sign up. Multiculturalism, by contrast, means that no one culture defines a nation which is composed instead of a babel of cultures. Moreover, multiculturalism holds that the indigenous culture cannot declare its values superior to any other. So it cannot lay down cultural norms which everyone is expected to share. Multiculturalism therefore destroys society as a body of people with a shared collective national vision. READ MORE

A quarter of US hiring managers discriminate against Jews, survey shows
November 27, 2022

A quarter of hiring managers say they are less likely to move forward with Jewish applicants, according to a survey conducted by a San Francisco-based employment resource firm. In light of recent high-profile cases of antisemitism in the U.S., ResumeBuilder.com polled 1,131 recruiters. Twenty-three percent say they want fewer Jews in their industry, while 17% add that managers have told them to avoid hiring Jews. The top reason for discriminating against Jews, the results show, is a supposed fear of their “power and control,” with 38% of hiring managers citing that excuse. READ MORE
