I wasn't in a mood to be online on the anniversary of the worst massacre of Jews since the Shoah & just saw that ppl are big mad abt Mamdani's statement & that he went to an Oct 7 memorial, then a Palestinian restaurant. So fwiw: This American-Israeli Jew is grateful for & agrees with all of it.

im sure others pointed it out, but "there are no good Israelis" is the same rhetoric as "there are no good Palestinians". "there is no good [ethnic group]" is an intrinsically fascist view, and there is no sugar coating or 'rephrasing' that

Disgraceful pandering to conspiracy theories. We know the names and numbers of those killed from friendly fire on 7 Oct 7. 22 people. That's 2% of the victims of that day. Out of these 22, 17 were potentially killed by "Hannibal"-style orders (not so clear).

I just realized that if you claim that "actually Palestinians/Arabs/Muslims are Semites too," then what you are actually doing is SILENCING the conversation about anti-Arab and Islamophobic bigotry by covering it up with a term for anti-Jewish bigotry – a term invented by proto-Nazi "race science."

It's a shame genocidal intent is so hard to establish you would practically need government ministers to publicly and explicitly illustrate their intent to use government facilities and instruments to deprive massive undifferentiated populations of basic necessities of life. That would never happen!

The Central Synagogue attack had no clear connection to Mamdani. He’s still being blamed.

He’s the Minister of National Security of the state of Israel. If you’re going to argue Mamdani calling Netanyahu a war criminal directly inspired antisemitic violence in New York, which is the AJC’s position, then you don’t have grounds to say Ben-Gvir’s genocidal words don’t affect Israeli policy.

Graham Platner is a rapist with a Nazi tattoo who has no real political experience. Abdul El-Sayed is a left-wing Muslim who ran the health department of one of the country’s most populous counties. To “Jewish Insider,” these are apparently the same.

Antisemitism is a real and growing issue in American politics and culture, but the fact that American Jewish organizations like the ADL and AJC went harder on Mamdani than on Platner is part of why we are making no headway in fighting it.

As a progressive Jew & son of Israelis: 1. We have been warning you about how antisemitism destroys movements from within. 2. Many white leftists blame Israel for everything to avoid focusing on their own role in white supremacy. 3. Accepting Nazis into the movement is proof of both of the above.

If you spend enough time researching Holocaust deniers, you find that one of the arguments they repeatedly make is that because Anne Frank died of typhus, she cannot be said to have been deliberately murdered or her condition exacerbated by the conditions of the camps.

Seems bad that a lot of the people who want to support Jewish Studies academic programs have such disdain for Jewish Studies as a field.
"Ed Beck, a retired mental-health counselor and academic in the Philadelphia area, is among those who think that Jewish studies has failed to sufficiently advocate for Jewish interests. “I’m not interested in how many knishes a Reform Jew can eat versus an Orthodox Jew can eat, which is kind of the things they study in Jewish studies,” he said. “I’m interested in: Why do they hate us, and why do they want to kill us, and what can we do to stop that?” He is concerned that more Jewish-studies professors do not oppose the Palestinian-led Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel."

For two years, I've watched some Americans on the left insist that there is no way anyone in Hamas could have committed sexual violence against Israeli Jews on October 7, 2023, or against hostages in Gaza, despite Amnesty documenting it. Now I'm seeing pro-Israel people doing the same denial.

If you define "Zionism" so broadly it just means a messianic yearning to return to the land, then it isn't coherent to say that the nation-state that has existed post-1948 is the only possible expression of Zionism. And if you define Zionism as the modern nation-state, it isn't in the prayerbook!
