It is just horrifying to hear what is happening at The New School. A vibrant place with an extraordinary legacy is being gutted by mismanagement. Feel for all the faculty, staff and students.

I don't know how my colleague Nathan Brown does it, but he produces one deeply thoughtful and extensive analysis of Israeli and Palestinian politics after another. Here is one of the most recent, on the lack of realistic strategic direction in Israel: carnegieendowment.org/research/202...

Israeli Policy Is Divided Into Two Main Camps. Neither One Offers a Realistic Path Forward.
To exit the strategic cul-de-sac, Israeli leaders need to account for today’s political and diplomatic realities, as well as the limits of what military force can accomplish.

You can't tackle antisemitism by quietly disinviting individuals - especially if these people have a mass following. The "rotten apple" approach never works - especially if you're not even willing to say it's rotten. You need to talk about it, explain, educate.

After a two year campaign of genocidal violence, Israel has not succeeded in meeting any of its objectives. Hamas still holds power, almost half the hostages were killed (many by munitions from the IDF). The majority of those returned alive were returned in the November 2023 ceasefire.

Hamas’s statement, that Trump seemed to welcome, has flipped the script on Netanyahu. Essentially they have taken us back to the third stage of the last ceasefire agreement - the agreement Israel broke to avoid the very negotiations Hamas is calling for.

I look back on this post and see the “well done” was wildly overstated. @ispp-pops.bsky.social action in opposing Israel’s genocide in Gaza is welcome but it is shameful that clear statements of condemnation and clear calls for action were not made beforehand.

The genocide Israel is carrying out in Gaza will be a stain on Jewish identity for all time. It will involve a transformation of our conceptualization of who we are. We are now part of a collective that carried out a genocide.

Israeli anti government protests that ignore the genocide in Gaza, that ignore the suffering of innocent civilians, are worse than no protests at all. They are signifiers of the very mentality, dare I say culture, that caused the genocide.

The pro Palestinian campus protests have been effectively silenced because the discourse of those protests made people feel uncomfortable. Meanwhile, it’s striking how comfortable and silent the same people seem to feel about the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Israel is starving children.

All of us have a moral responsibility to condemn and act against Israel’s genocidal actions. But some have more of a responsibility than others. If someone has spoken out about related issues - e.g., Oct 7, pro pal protests - silence about Gaza is read (by me at least) as complicity.

One reason that some people don’t oppose a genocide is simply because they cannot believe it. It’s so far from their representation of who they are, of who their government is to be true. Thus allegations must be driven by hate or stupidity

During these terrible days of Israel’s genocide in Gaza , it’s easy to come to the false conclusion that conflict is inevitable and rests on deep differences such as attachment to different types of religious belief. The JPSP paper described by Mikey in this thread below is a nice antidote.

Now out in JPSP! Behavioral economic experiments w/ Christians, Muslims, Hindus, and Jews in the U.S., Israel and Fiji show that belief in God can facilitate cooperation, even across religious divides! More about our work (co-led with @jeremyginges.bsky.social) below! psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?d...
Screenshot of title and abstract of paper, "In their God we trust: Religious Cognition increases cooperation across religious divides."

Abstract: Belief in moralizing Gods is widely thought to foster cooperation between coreligionists, but there is disagreement regarding whether this effect is limited to the religious ingroup or if it extends to members of religious outgroups. Here we report the results of a cross-cultural research program that demonstrates that people who think about God (a) are more trusted by both coreligionists and members of other religious groups and (b) typically behave in a more trustworthy manner toward both ingroups and outgroups. We ran three preregistered
studies (N= 1,784) with Christians and Muslims in the United States, Jews and Muslims in Israel, and Christians and Hindus in Fiji. Our contexts varied in multiple ways, including the level of intergroup conflict.
Using two-player trust games involving real money, we varied whether participants interacted with ingroup or outgroup members and whether reciprocators considered God when deciding how much to return to trustors. We nd in each context that making moralizing God beliefs of one player salient enhances both intragroup and intergroup cooperation. Our ndings add to a nascent literature documenting the potential for religious cognition to extend moral norms across intergroup divides. We discuss implications for theories of the emergence of moralizing Gods and implications for public debates about religious pluralism in diverse societies.

Genocide in Gaza, ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, and remaking of Israel into a Kahanist republic: this is the hegemonic political project in Israel, and it will not disappear even if there's a cease fire or new elections. It won't stop unless it is named, confronted and defeated.
