Anti-Semitism Is Poison for the Palestinian Cause

Two years after Hamas's attack on southern Israel, anti-Semitic violence seems to be on the rise throughout the West. On Yom Kippur, a man drove a car into a crowd outside a synagogue in Manchester, England, then got out and stabbed members of the congregation before he was also killed. On June 2 in Boulder, Colorado, an Egyptian national threw Molotov cocktails at protesters calling for the release of Israeli hostages, killing one of them. Such incidents have grown more frequent as the Israeli military's deadly operation in Gaza grinds on.

Palestine protests latest: Hundreds to march despite calls to cancel after attack

I think it's phenomenally tone deaf, to say the least, for so many people who claim to care about human rights and care about freedoms, to be taking police resources away from protecting the rights and freedoms of Jewish people to live their lives and go to synagogue in safety, all to support a proscribed terrorist organisation, which is not the same thing as supporting the Palestinians. The two are not the same. And I think it's remarkably self absorbed and insensitive to say the least.

The Judaism I Thought I Knew

For most of my life, I attended reluctantly, dreading the long hours of prayer. I was proud to be Jewish, taking satisfaction in my people's survival and success despite the attempts to annihilate us. But I was also embarrassed by what I perceived as Judaism's weirdness and obsolescence: all those nitpicky laws, and that implausible, reward-and-punishment God I thought was portrayed in the liturgy.

On Antisemitism: A Word in History by Mark Mazower review the politics of prejudice

Adolf Hitler's defeat didn't end prejudice against Jews in Germany or any other country. But the Third Reich did, in Mark Mazower's judgment, discredit antisemitism as a positive programme for decades to come. It is an arresting turn of phrase that makes reckoning with the Holocaust after the second world war sound more like a trend in public policy than a moral imperative.
