Israel Haters Lose at UCLA

One of the weird consequences of the Bush-era “Global War on Terror” is that it inspired sympathy for terrorists among young progressives, whose reasoning seems to have been: “If Republicans are against terrorists, therefore, terrorists must be victims.” This kind of sympathy for America’s enemies has long been endemic on the far Left, but the […]

R.I.P. Ariel Sharon, a Tough Jew

Today, former PM Ariel Sharon passed away. He was a courageous leader & defender of Israel. May his memory be blessed pic.twitter.com/YCEJPPsE6R — IDF (@IDFSpokesperson) January 11, 2014 When I was a kid growing up in the 1960s, the endless nightmare of the Vietnam War was the nightly news.

Why Do @MaxBlumenthal Fanboys Hate @AlanaGoodman and @RosieGray?

Because They Hate would be an acceptable answer, of course, but after BuzzFeed’s Rosie Gray put the spotlight on how Max Blumenthal’s anti-Israel book was being defended by Max’s father, longtime Clinton adviser Sidney Blumenthal, the hate machine cranked up.
