As the world enters another week of the coronavirus crisis, the contamination of political speech and action by racist scapegoating, anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and pandering to hard right tropes grows. Laurel Leff explores her response to watching ‘The Plot Against America’ while bombarded with Trump tweets; Ben Lorber examines the ‘different’ anti-Semitism that targets Haredim, and Avi Shafran accuses liberal Jews of fueling bigotry against them. Flora Cassen dives into the ‘dark net’ to show how far-right theories are breaking through to the mainstream.
Israel’s potential West Bank annexation is now an urgent issue for U.S.-Israel relations, and for U.S. Jews’ relations with the Jewish state. Daniel B. Shapiro queries how Netanyahu can possibly keep Trump, Biden and his base content; Blake Flayton calls on Biden to speak out against annexation more loudly; and Guy Ziv writes that being ‘Israel’s friend’ right now requires protesting the move. Fr. Jamal Khader and Rev. Munther Isaac describes annexation as a catastrophe for Palestinian Christians. Anshel Pfeffer notes that U.S. Jews can complain as much as they like, but for Netanyahu, they’re second-rate Jews and have minimal influence.
And if you’re a ‘Fauda’ fan and missed George Zeidan’s excoriating critique of the show’s anti-Palestinian bias, have a read.
