One of the idealistic hopes that arose during the recent Israeli political wrangling was the possibility that centrist Benny Gantz would end the Netanyahu era by forming a minority government of 44 Jewish members of Knesset on the center-left with the outside support of legislators who would keep the government from being voted out. The outside bloc was ten or more Palestinian members of Knesset and eight seats held by rightwinger Avigdor Lieberman. The Palestinian political leader Ayman Odeh implored Gantz to rise to the moment and make such a coalition, based on the idea of equality of Palestinians and Jews.

Applying Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to Jews is not new. It's the adoption of the IHRA Definition of Anti-Semitism thats causing all the commotion. Is it anti-Semitism to support the destruction of the one and only Jewish nation-state home to approximately half of the Jews in the world today?

To safeguard its interests, protect its allies, and prevent a resurgence of Islamic State, the United States must contain the Islamic Republics expansionism, and to do so, argues Reuel Marc Gerecht, Washington must focus its attention on Syria. In the words of the former commander of Iranian forces in Syria, the country as the key region to Iranian strategy, where Tehrans interests can most be hurt

MK Ayelet Shaked (New Right) on Saturday night appeared on Israel's "Meet the Press" program. Clarifying that her relationship with Defense Minister Naftali Bennett (New Right) is "excellent" and there is "mutual respect and compromise" despite the silence over the past week, Shaked expressed dismay over the fact that "for one week I'm quiet, and there's a commotion." She also said that she believed it was better to hold large-scale primaries for Religious Zionism, in which each person could apply to run, but unfortunately that did not happen.

The resolution stressed that the definition encompasses manifestations of hatred toward the State of Israel justified solely by the perception of the latter as a Jewish collective. MP Meyer Habib, who supported the resolution, delivered a passionate and poignant speech, highlighting the extent of the anti-Semitic threat in todays France, and the close links between hatred of the Jews and hatred toward Israel: Since 2006, twelve French people have been murdered in France because they were Jewish.

It is not clear whether it was intentional or not, but the current US administration appears to have thrown Jewish Zionists under the bus by declaring Jewishness to be a nationality, and not simply a religion.The primary aim of the recent executive order was to assist far-right Israelis in their efforts to silence pro-Palestinian students at American universities, by declaring any attack on Israel or Zionism to be anti-Semitic.To do this, the administration used Title VI of the Civil Rights Act. However, this does not address discrimination against religious groups; for it to apply, therefore, Jews would have to be defined under the law as a nationality or race. With its actions, the US administration has exposed one of the biggest fault lines in the Middle East conflict.For decades, Palestinians and their supporters who oppose Zionism have insisted they are not anti-Jew but take issue with the unique and exclusive right granted to anyone of the Jewish faith, anywhere in the world, to settle in Palestine against the wishes of the indigenous people of all faiths (even those who do not have a declared faith.)Palestinian nationalism was built primarily on opposing Zionism while showing respect to Judaism.

Lets be clear: the legislative council of the Student Society of McGill University is not McGill; the McGill Daily is not McGill; and Students in Solidarity for Palestinian Human Rights McGill is certainly not McGill. Nevertheless, theyve succeeded in defining, and defaming, the university. The many headlines decrying anti-Semitism at McGill should alarm McGillians
