‘No person without his hour’ www.jns.org/no-person-wi... via @JNS_org Jewish summer camps create paths for children with challenges to thrive and transition into productive young adults with job skills and a social network.

It’s been a while since I wrote about something not Jewish at all. www.washingtonexaminer.com/premium/3872...

A comprehensive, balanced @kampeas.bsky.social profile of an organization that, under attack by a Christian nationalist administration, has scrapped its 110-year mission and shrunk its goal to defending Israel . . . which AIPAC already has covered. In the Trump era, what's the point of the ADL?

“The revelation this weekend of an American Jewish nonprofit’s involvement in promoting an Israeli politician in the throes of an election campaign comes after years of attacks by Netanyahu on liberal leaning foreign nonprofits promoting civil society in Israel.”

Erasure is a plague and Trump, the autocrat unhinging our country from decency, is its vector. Plagues do not recognize boundaries. Among the infected are Zohran Mamdani. open.substack.com/pub/ronkampe...

Democrats and progressive Jewish organizations want a word with the NYC mayoral candidate, who criticizes Israel in the language of the far left. www.jta.org/2025/07/01/p...

Was Trump's strike on Iran good for the Jews? My first Haaretz op-ed Was Trump's strike on Iran good for the Jews? www.haaretz.com/opinion/2025...

For years, Jerusalem preferred the "devil we know" to whatever might follow. www.jta.org/2025/06/23/i...

Alarm over nuclear weapons are Iran's alliance with Russia play a role. www.jta.org/2025/06/16/i...

Top Democrats backed Israel, but several other leading Democratic senators expressed skepticism. www.jta.org/2025/06/13/p...

An Iranian retaliation poses a test for the Trump White House's appetite to act on Israel's behalf. www.jta.org/2025/06/13/i...

In the hours before the strike, some insiders said they thought Israel could be rattling sabers. www.jta.org/2025/06/12/i...

We’re doomed.

DC area peeps, come join me at Montgomery County, Md. Beth El.

The great @kampeas.bsky.social on anti-Jewish scapegoating and karma.

What goes around comes around: #SouthAfrica’s president rehearsed genocide charge against Israel in meeting with local Jewish leaders: The community took umbrage in feeling that #CyrilRamaphosa treated them as agents of the Israeli government. www.jta.org/2024/04/19/p... h/t @kampeas.bsky.social

“We must now double down to quash the terrorism-promoting demonstrations on college campuses,” one Jewish group said in a statement. www.jta.org/2025/05/22/p...

PSA: When you publicly pontificate over whether the shooting of the Israeli embassy staffers was "antisemitic or merely anti-Zionist", every Jew--of any view on Israel--understands that you're silently evaluating our connections to Israel to decide whether our murders would be worth mourning over.

Ominous

A June 3, 1982 shooting attack on Israel’s envoy to London, Shlomo Argov, provided the pretext for the Lebanon war that year. www.jta.org/2025/05/22/i...

🗣 On the Record weekend wrap: 💯 My score: 120/120 points ➡️ Your turn

This is an outstanding piece by @kampeas.bsky.social on the ignoble history of privileging race over service that Trump now embodies.

I was on the AP desk when the Clintons returned foreign gifted crockery and I remember thinking how déclassé it was it had to come to that. Trump just accepted a $400m plane. From Qatar. He makes everyone of his predecessors look like pikers.
