    Originally published: Mondoweiss on July 7, 2025 by Emmaia Gelman (more by Mondoweiss)  | (Posted Jul 11, 2025)

    In a momentous vote, the National Education Association voted to cut all ties with the Anti-Defamation League. The reason? “Despite its reputation as a civil rights organization, the ADL is not the social justice educational partner it claims to be.”

    Originally published: Mondoweiss on July 6, 2025 by Dina Elmuti (more by Mondoweiss)  | (Posted Jul 07, 2025)

    The ‘chaos’ of aid distribution in Gaza is not a system failure. The system is designed to fail.

    Originally published: Mondoweiss on May 30, 2025 by Abdaljawad Omar (more by Mondoweiss)  | (Posted Jun 03, 2025)

    Israel is using the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation to condense Palestinians into increasingly narrow enclaves, forcing displacement through need. We are witnessing the rise of a new humanitarianism where aid sites double as kill zones.

    Whether it’s total conquest or managed containment, Israel doesn’t have a single grand strategy for Gaza, but it uses the possibility of both to prolong the war.

    Originally published: Mondoweiss on May 20, 2025 (more by Mondoweiss)  |

    How the creation of the ‘New Antisemitism’ was used to shield Israel and attack the Left

    Originally published: Mondoweiss on April 28, 2025 by Sean Malloy (more by Mondoweiss)  | (Posted Apr 30, 2025)

    Challenges to Zionism in the late 1960s and 1970s sparked an effort to redefine antisemitism focused on defending Israel while attacking the political Left. This resulted in the IHRA definition and the assault on Palestine activism we see today.

    How the Trump administration is using civil rights complaints over ‘antisemitism’ to end DEI and quash dissent on Palestine

    Originally published: Mondoweiss on April 17, 2025 by Amira Jarmakani (more by Mondoweiss)  | (Posted Apr 18, 2025)

    The Trump administration’s recent investigation of 60 schools for “antisemitic discrimination” appeared to target campus protests. But, a closer look shows it was driven by pro-Israel groups’ use of civil rights law to push a broad right-wing agenda.

    Originally published: Mondoweiss on April 5, 2025 by Joseph Levine (more by Mondoweiss)  | (Posted Apr 08, 2025)

    Because the Jewish community has not shown the minimal moral capacity to call out genocide I cannot take concern around alleged pro-Palestine antisemitism seriously as it appears to just be a strategy to aid and abet Israel’s crimes.
