Where the answer to a question about antisemitism is... to double down on "those bad Jews" for not loving Israel as much as "we" do.
And even if they did love Israel more, would that then make antisemitism acceptable?

The Third Promise

Can Judaism’s indigenous core help us rise above the damaging politics of our time?

I’m not sure I entirely agree with this essay, but it’s definitely worth a read and I think the books recommended at the top by the editor would be worth reading as well.
