I shouldn’t have to perceive Orthodox Jews as political opponents
As I’ve been staying in Hungary for a while now, I had the experience of seeing quite a lot of Israeli tourists on the streets of Budapest. It’s not surprising in the least, given that in Israel, at least...

On Yom Kippur, Israel cannot expect forgiveness
Thirty years ago, the State of Israel attempted to make a compromise. It tried being the bigger man. The responsible side. The tolerant side. It has done so just a few times during its history, and the Oslo Accords...

Cornel West could save the United States
As a progressive leftist, watching Joe Biden get credit for all the things he has not done makes my blood boil and feel anger mixed with sorrow for my American brothers and sisters. A recent example of this was the...

US politics yearns for age limits
Time and time again, the US has shown that its aging leaders are incapable of creating a path toward progress for the citizens of the country. So-called stateswomen and statesmen who lived their “youths” -- the most active periods...

Biden will lose his party the election
Biden failed at his mission. He failed because of his ego. His sole purpose was to serve as a transition between Trumpism and Progressivism. Brand new polls are now appearing on the regular, polls that make the obvious even clearer;...

Israel’s in despair. It should’ve been for decades
Israel is in despair. Israelis, or more specifically, civically aware and civically engaged Israelis have been protesting for the entirety of 2023, voicing their opposition to their Prime Minister’s latest and greatest, the Great Beheading of Israel’s Judiciary. As opposition...
