Letter: ADL Deeply Disturbed by Colorado State Lawmaker’s Disruption 

I agree with ADL’s Scott Levin that it was inappropriate for Representative Epps to try to insert anti-Israel language into legislation regarding a program to provide food for poor children.

Letter: Hypocritical Harvard Professors

Over 100 Harvard professors condemn donors criticizing campus antisemitism, raising allegations of hypocrisy given Harvard's acceptance of $895 million potentially tied to increased antisemitism. The issue sheds light on concealed donations affecting university policies.

Letter: From Rashida’s Big Mouth 

Rashida Tlaib is correct – Palestinian people are not disposable. Therefore, if she truly wants Palestinians to have decent lives, she should be urging Hamas to stop using Palestinians as human shields...

Letter: Hebron in August 1929 Says It All

If you listen or read the main stream media or listen to 99% of university administrators today, you would think that Hamas and the Auschwitz-like horrors that it inflicted on the Jewish people on October 7 is an aberration and that for entirety of the rest of recorded history Muslims have treated the Jewish people with respect and tolerance.

Letter: Biden’s “Rules of War”? 

Like Rafael Medoff, I am dismayed that Pres. Biden felt it necessary to remind Israel to try to avoid civilian casualties. Biden should be well aware that Israel goes to extraordinary lengths to avoid injuring or killing civilians when Israel is forced to respond to attacks on her own civilians.

Letter: On Mobilizing Antisemitism

I have often wondered if today’s Arabs long for the glory days when Muslims described the world as being divided between Dar es Salaam (countries “at peace” after having been forced to accept Islam) and Dar al Harb (countries still under the sword).

Letter: Schiff Censure Justified 2

The only thing in Bruce Ticker’s column with which I can agree is that it is a considerable stretch to compare Congress’ censure of Adam Schiff with the mistreatment endured by Alfred Dreyfus and Leo Frank.

Letter: CUNY Law School Speech Audience Not Versed in History

Perhaps the saddest point about a CUNY law student using her invitation to address her fellow graduates (Column: New York Times Compounds Harm Of ‘Fiery Speech’ That Bashes Israel Boulder Jewish News June 22, 2023) was that many in the audience probably didn’t know enough about the history of the modern State of Israel to challenge the speaker, even if there had been an opportunity for them to do so.

Letter: Biden’s Feckless Strategy to Fight Antisemitism

Notwithstanding the praise that some Jewish organizations have heaped on the Biden White House's recent plan to fight antisemitism ("U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism"), the facts -- for at least two reasons -- demonstrate that this plan is toothless.

Letter: The Changing Demographics of Israel

The Rabbinic Council of Boulder is entitled to its opinion, but it ignores the fact that a fair democratic election was held in Israel. ("The Rabbinic Council of Boulder Aligns Itself With Israel's Protestors Against Judicial Reform," BJN 5/9/23). The majority, albeit a small majority, voted for the Netanyahu coalition whose platform included judicial reform.
