How did I miss this clip?

Scott Galloway: “Free speech is at its freest when it is hate speech against Jews.”

Thank you.

I mean, yeah, but no one even has a plausible theory for how we get there. And I do mean no one, not the Americans, not the Israelis, not the Palestinians.

If you want the details on why the UN dramatically lowered its Gaza death toll numbers, and why it does actually mean fewer deaths, contrary to what the anti-Israel activists pretend - 10,000 “unidentified” does not mean unidentified bodies, but unverifiable claims of deaths that…

Qatar, which owns Al Jazeera, may well be the world’s biggest propagator of the most brutal and illiberal version of Islam ever developed.

And the ignorant, incoherent West is okay with it.

just to be clear, Hamas has now launched its fourth bomb attack on Kerem Shalom. THAT'S THE CROSSING WHERE THE AID YOU HAVE ALL DEMANDED MUST BE SENT TO GAZA GOES THROUGH. Four times.

These venues shutting down from London to NY & beyond to not air a 20 year old Israeli girl singing in the Eurovision really is a cultish, xenophobic, immoral, racist, dystopian flex. We’re living in a time where the cruelest, most bigoted people genuinely see themselves as light…

I’m shocked - shocked! - that Hamas would lie so egregiously about the death toll and western media would so eagerly lap it up for so long.

The tragic irony is that the truth is still horrible, still demonstrates how horrifying this kind of war is, still validates demands that…

Should have included the link of the “What Matters Episode” featuring Amanda Borschel-Dan and Haviv Rettig Gur: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wha… Most Americans who are not Jewish will not understand the importance of next week in the Israeli calendar. They ought to listen to this pod to its end.

This is how you start laying a paper trail that makes Israel the reason Arab peoples aren’t free and Arab nations aren’t democratic.

America supports Arab dictatorships because there are no Arab democracies. (I know: Tunisia. Go ask Tunisians.)

“Democracy,” by which Hamid means…

Biden has hamstrung us? How? He’s threatened to bomb us? To send troops against us? To sanction us?

We are led by simpering cowards who couldn’t take Gaza in seven months, couldn’t make a show of humanitarian concern, both because it is right and because it gives political cover…

Few people understand how uniformly anti-Zionist universities have become because they often know of faculty who are Zionist. However, this is not a smart way to understand anti-Zionism in higher ed. From a student perspective, it matters not at all if her math teacher is…

This immensely important point is also so blindingly obvious that it makes you despair that America can produce a competent policy.

You want to limit weapons sales? Fine. But you just pushed off a hostage deal and dragged out everyone’s suffering a bit longer. At least don’t…

Haviv Rettig Gur Hey Haviv, there's also a letter to the Rutgers administration signed by over 1K people mostly alumni and students. Can we get a signal boost? Not to minimize the Columbia letter which is amazing and moving.

I found this statement, In Our Name, by the Columbia University Jewish student community compelling. With the details changed it speaks for what I know are the views and values of Harvard's Jewish community and the Jewish communities at many other universities.…
