El lema “Palestina libre” ha sido utilizado durante mucho tiempo en manifestaciones, cánticos, pancartas, internet y grafitis por quienes defienden los derechos de los palestinos. Desde el 7 de octubre, el eslogan ha sido utilizado regularmente por activistas y organizaciones antiisraelíes en los campus universitarios y otros lugares, y en numerosas ocasiones, se ha dirigido de forma maliciosa contra judíos y otras personas. En muchos sentidos, el eslogan es…

Re “I No Longer Believe in a Jewish State” (Op-Ed, July 9):
With all his soothing words about equality and blissful coexistence, Peter Beinart is calling for the elimination of the Jewish state itself. His contortions to argue that Zionism does not require an independent Jewish state are transparently false and a tactic to…
April 24, 2020 THE WEEK’S BIG 3A series of anti-quarantine rallies took place across the country this week, several of which were sponsored in whole or part by identified extremists and featured antisemitic content. A new ADL survey released on Holocaust Remembrance Day found that more than half of America’s Jews have either experienced or witnessed an antisemitic incident over the past five years. And Israel’s year-long political stalemate has come to an end, with the…

February 27, 2020 THE WEEK’S BIG 3
Far-right extremists killed at least 38 people in the U.S. in 2019, the sixth deadliest year on record violence by all domestic extremists since 1970, according to a new report. Federal prosecutors charged five people allegedly linked to a neo-Nazi group for engaging in a campaign to intimidate and harass journalists, activists and a member of the President’s cabinet. Calling AIPAC a platform “for leaders who express bigotry,”…
Following the British announcement that it would end its authority over Palestine, the question of sovereignty was considered by the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine (UNSCOP). The UNSCOP report recommended the division of the British Mandate-controlled area of Palestine into two states, one Arab and one Jewish, with Jerusalem to be an “international” city. According to the plan, the two states, roughly equal in size and natural resources, would cooperate on major…
by: Jonathan Greenblatt | September 19, 2019 The Times of Israel Heading into the U.N. General Assembly next week, it is rumored that President Trump might sit down with his Iranian counterpart, Hassan Rouhani, when world leaders are gathered in New York City. This despite claims by U.S. officials that Iran was responsible for the drone attacks on Saudi oil fields, the defiant posture of President Trump toward the regime since he came to office, and the Iranian insistence…
September 12, 2019 What do I need to know about Israel’s election?
On September 17, 2019, Israel will hold an election for the 22nd Knesset.
The victor of the elections in Israel is determined by the party’s ability to form a coalition government (representing at least 61 seats in the Knesset), therefore making the balance of power between the right and left blocs a key issue. According to the Israeli political system, it is not the party which wins the largest number of…

“Teaching High School Students to Demonize Israel” (Tablet, July 18) falsely portrays the Boston area’s two major mainstream Jewish community organizations’ role in a seven-year-old controversy regarding the Newton public school district’s use of the Arab World Studies Notebook and other materials in Newton North High School’s World History classes.
Our organizations, ADL and JCRC, are in fact deeply…
A Hebrew version of this article originally appeared in Makor Rishon on June 10th. by: Carole Nuriel | July 23, 2019 It has been more than three weeks since the earthquake that rocked Israel in wake of the shooting of Israeli-Ethiopian teenager Solomon Tekah by an off-duty police officer. The national debate that began with an emphasis on the details of the shooting incident has since turned into a discourse on the image of Israeli society – who we are and how we relate to the other…

by: Kenneth Jacobson | April 16, 2019 Forward Last week, the ADL joined a number of other Jewish organizations in signing a letter to President Donald Trump asking him to oppose any steps by Israel to annex territory in the West Bank.
Signing the letter was for us the ultimate Zionist statement.
Israel needs a two-state solution as much as the Palestinians. And as news reports suggest the Trump Israeli-Palestinian peace plan is being readied for release in the coming weeks,…
The follow letter was submitted to The Daily in response to "Netanyahu Won. The Two-State Solution Lost" (April 11) Lisa Tobin
Executive Producer, The Daily
Dear Ms. Tobin:
The Daily Podcast of April 11 was riddled with inaccuracies, omissions and premature conclusions.
Yes, for those of us who believe that Israel needs a two-state solution as much as the Palestinians, there are worrying trends, including the prime minister’s campaign statement about annexing…

Jerusalem, March 20, 2019… The ADL (Anti-Defamation League) called on Israelis from across the political spectrum to be mindful in their choice of words, and to refrain from inflammatory statements about the Supreme Court.
Carole Nuriel, Director of ADL’s Israel Office, issued the following statement:
Politicians and party leaders have made a number of inflammatory statements surrounding Israel’s Supreme Court in recent days, specifically following…
February 27, 2019 Many American Jewish organizations generally refrain from commenting on Israeli electoral issues. The fact that so many felt they had no choice but to condemn the agreement to include Otzma Yehudit Party (Jewish Power) on a mainstream party list in advance of the April 9, 2019 national elections demonstrates the level of concern with which American Jews and pro-Israel groups view this development and its implications -- both in Israel and abroad -- for how Israel…
January 29, 2019 Michelle Alexander is a scholar and writer of considerable repute on issues of racial equity and social justice in the United States. Her works have contributed significantly to public understanding of these issues. But her recent New York Times column on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one-sided and contains significant factual inaccuracies.
Her column, “Time to Break the Silence on Palestine,” attempts to imagine how Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would…
December 24, 2018 Sports tournaments and other international competitions have long been harnessed by some countries in the Middle East as part of their continued efforts to isolate and delegitimize Israel and prevent engagement with Israelis. This typically includes the host country barring entry to Israeli athletes; refusing to allow them to compete under the Israeli flag or play their country’s national anthem at medal ceremonies; and refusing to shake their hands or even compete…
