The ‘erasive Jew-hate’ that deletes Jewish ties to Israel (TOI)
The recent attack on Jews in Britain – a murderous Yom Kippur-day rampage at a Manchester synagogue that killed Adrian Daulby z”l and Melvin Cravitz z”l – is far from an isolated assault. Whether it’s deadly incidents in the UK and United States or the surge in day-to-day cultural, political, and social anti-Jewish racism, it feels harder than ever to live as a Jew in the Diaspora.
While the State of Israel is now the primary focus of this hatred, that focus is merely a mask. Beneath it lies the same old hatred of Jews – a hatred that erases Jewish life in the Diaspora. In 2020, I identified this as Erasive Jew-Hate: a form of antisemitism that ousts Israel from the community of nations, denies Jewish experience, and strips us of our very identity – including our status as an indigenous people.
No ceasefire for the Jews (TOI)
Even as the fighting in Gaza winds down, Diaspora Jews are still endangered by the pro-Hamas influence of the Qatari regime
