A tip of the kippah to the architects of Zionism — those stubborn visionaries who believed a battered people could build a modern state out of desert, memory, and sheer human will. They dreamed of a country that would gather Jews from around the world and give them safety, dignity, and a shared future. WhatContinue reading “The Jew News Review – November 29, 2025 – “Startup Nation” or “Exit Nation”?”

The Jew News Review – Special Diplomacy Issue – November 25, 2025 – “Gaza, Ukraine and Dostoevsky: Crimes Without Punishment”
A “tip of the kippah” this week to Fyodor Dostoevsky, patron saint of tortured souls and men who overthink everything except their own violence. His masterpiece, Crime and Punishment, begins with a murder, but the real brutality isn’t the axe, it’s the moral derangement that follows. Raskolnikov commits the crime; the world behaves as if the victimContinue reading “The Jew News Review – Special Diplomacy Issue – November 25, 2025 – “Gaza, Ukraine and Dostoevsky: Crimes Without Punishment””
The Jew News Review – November 21, 2025 – “Good bye, Bro”
Shabbat shalom. The JNR is pausing for the week. I’ll be at my brother Billy’s celebration of life — honoring a man who lived with Dude-level grace, humor, and heart. Even in grief, the Dude abides. I’ll be back next week. So long Bro, at least for now. Someday, hopefully not too soon, “I’ll catchContinue reading “The Jew News Review – November 21, 2025 – “Good bye, Bro””
The Jew News Review – November 15, 2025 – “American Decay vs. Israeli Renewal: A Tale of Two Democracies”
Shabbat shalom. It was a revealing week on opposite sides of the globe. In the United States, the Epstein email release dominated the news cycle like a chemical spill from a septic tank, confirming yet again that many of our “pillars of society” were actually just frequent-flyer degenerates with expensive legal teams. The documents didn’tContinue reading “The Jew News Review – November 15, 2025 – “American Decay vs. Israeli Renewal: A Tale of Two Democracies””
The Jew News Review – November 8, 2025 – “Foist on Our Own Petard: How the Soft Caliphate is Conquering the West Without a Shot”
Shabbat shalom. In his latest dispatch, the usually calm and grounded analyst, Andrew Fox, recounts being shocked by a WhatsApp message from a friend: Jewish Israelis had been banned from attending a soccer match in Britain. One minute they were heading to the stadium, the next they were told no entry “for safety reasons.” TheContinue reading “The Jew News Review – November 8, 2025 – “Foist on Our Own Petard: How the Soft Caliphate is Conquering the West Without a Shot””
The Jew News Review – November 1, 2025 – “From WTF to Action: Why We Must Retell the Jewish Story”
When it comes to antisemitism in the U.S., and across the so-called enlightened West, I keep asking myself: how much worse could it get? WTF, indeed. If you want to know how bad things have gotten, look no further than New York City, the beating heart of the Jewish diaspora, where Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani is now likelyContinue reading “The Jew News Review – November 1, 2025 – “From WTF to Action: Why We Must Retell the Jewish Story””
The Jew News Review – October 25, 2025 – “Oy, I need a break”
Shabbat shalom! I’m taking the week off to visit with family. There really wasn’t much to write about anyway, just the incredibly horrendous shit which is now considered “normal”: Masked ICE agents snatching people off the street, the National Guard sent into major cities on the obviously false pretense that these cities are shit holesContinue reading “The Jew News Review – October 25, 2025 – “Oy, I need a break””
The Jew News Review – October 18, 2025 – “On Survival, Healing, and the Quiet Heroism of Care”
Shabbat shalom! And a huge tip of the kippah to the returning hostages and their families and friends! The images are impossible to forget. The faces of the living hostages stepping back onto Israeli soil, thin, pale, trembling, collapsing into the arms of parents and children who had long stopped believing in miracles. The pureContinue reading “The Jew News Review – October 18, 2025 – “On Survival, Healing, and the Quiet Heroism of Care””
The Jew News Review – October 11, 2025 – “The Art of the Uneasy Peace”
Shabbat shalom. Political junkie David Axelrod once quipped that he wasn’t sure if history had a sense of justice, but that it certainly had a sense of humor. I’m starting to think history also has the social skills of a drunk uncle at a bar mitzvah. So, despite the challenge to my gag reflex, aContinue reading “The Jew News Review – October 11, 2025 – “The Art of the Uneasy Peace””
The Jew News Review – Special Edition – October 7, 2025 – “The Test Within The Test”
(October 7, Two Years Later) Two years after October 7, the test is no longer just for Israel’s survival, but for the soul of the Jewish people — whether we still stand together when the world looks away. Two years ago this week, the gates of hell opened on a Saturday morning. It was theContinue reading “The Jew News Review – Special Edition – October 7, 2025 – “The Test Within The Test””
