Everyone was busy talking about anti-Semitism in the workplace, but my workplace did something about it. They tapped the DEI panel together and tweeted a vague statement of “solidarity” and called it a day. They helped me fight anti-Semitism and build an entire department to support Israel. And this is the kicker – I don't work for a progressive nonprofit. I work for a Republican consulting company.
That's what makes being a Jewish Republican so complicated. On the one hand, the Republicans have delivered to Israel over and over again, actually fought against important anti-Semitism. Meanwhile, people are on the right wink with anti-Semitism ratios, as they auditioned for propaganda reels in the 1930s. It makes me irritated. It's irritating. But at the end of the day, I have to ask myself: Who is actually getting things done?
President Trump's record on Jews and Israeli issues is not just strong, it's not unparalleled. he The US Embassy has been moved to Jerusalem All the other presidents just talked about it. He recognized Israel's sovereignty over Golan Heights. he He brokered Abraham's agreementwill hold a historic peace deal between Israel and the Arab countries. he Cut funding for Unrwaan organization that has been raising spoons for Palestinian children for decades. These are not iconic gestures. They are actions that have shaped a geopolitical landscape and made Israel and the Jews safer.
Meanwhile, American College Campus has become an open, anti-Semitic, lawless freedom. Jewish students are harassed, assaulted and creeped up during the daytime. Still, who is actually cracking down on it? Not Joe Biden. He claims to value Jewish safety, but is not progressive that he cannot bring himself to blame a single Prohama mob. It is the Republicans who hold the university accountable. It raises federal funds from schools that refuse to protect Jewish students.
And this isn't just a protest. It concerns real dangerous extremists working in American soil with the support of the Democrats. Take Mahmoud Khalil, an activist at Columbia University with a long history of Prohama rhetoric and open instigation. Halil says,Armed resistance” to Israel.
However, when Ice arrested him, Democrats, including members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, rushed to his defense. They called his deportation procedure “authoritarianism.” Ignore his bond To a terrorist organization designated by the United States.
Let's sink it. The same political parties that claim to oppose anti-Semitism will strike for Hamas supporters. The same Democrat leadership that speaks of a big game about fighting hatred is bent backwards to protect militants who incite violence against Jews.
At the same time, don't pretend there's no problem with the right side. We need to call it. Once a conservative star, Candice Owens has embraced rhetoric that sounds torn from the footnotes of his alt-right manifesto. Joe Logan, one of the most influential voices in the media. I just gave it a platform For known anti-Semies, it further mainstreams a kind of conspiracy theory that has acquired Jews who have been killed over the centuries.
And then there's Tucker Carlson. They could be foghorns as they've been blowing dog whispers loudly for years. From the line of “exchange theory” to everyday featured guests who denounce Jews of everything, Carlson has transformed his brand of fake populism into a gateway drug for anti-Semitic paranoia.
But it's here. One has a problem with rhetoric, and the other has a problem with policy. And rhetoric does not compare to policies that are as dangerous as possible and actively put Jews at risk. The left loves to talk about anti-Semitism, but when it's time to act, they bend backwards to protect those who hate us.
They say to us that anti-Semitism is bad, but they fund NGOs that are pushing forward with the honour of anti-Israel blood. They say they care about the safety of Jews, but they are people who make excuses for those chasing Jews on the streets. There may be problems on the right, but when the push sticks out, they act.
At the end of the day, the story is cheap. Action is important. And if I have to choose between a party with bad rhetoric and a party with policies that put Jews at risk, I'm choosing the one on the right where it actually has our backs where it matters.
