Confronted with the Jerusalem Declaration on Antisemitism (JDA), published on March 25, 2021, it is tempting—especially for Jews at this time of year—to ask: Why is this definition of anti-Semitism different from all other definitions?
Actually, the question to ask is more specific. In 2016, the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), an intergovernmental body, produced its “working definition of antisemitism.” The IHRA definition has been endorsed by the secretary general of the United Nations and adopted by governments, political parties, public agencies, universities, and other bodies (including numerous Jewish organizations) in countries around the world. The European Parliament has called upon all member states to adopt the definition. The JDA is written, in large part, as a response to the IHRA text. So, a better question might be: How is the JDA different and why does the difference matter? In short: Why the JDA?

Texas May Introduce Bill to Blacklist Anti-Fossil Fuel Companies


Photo: Eric Gay (AP)
Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said that one of his “legislative priorities” for this year is passing a bill to protect the fossil fuel industry, by blacklisting businesses. In a public policy forum on Thursday sponsored by a business group, Patrick said the potential McCarthy-esque rule could be modeled off a disastrous pro-Israel bill he pushed in 2017.

“I think it will pass easily,” Patrick told the crowd. Energy companies, Patrick said, “are being treated a little bit like the state of Israel...That is what is happening in the oil and gas industry.” (Another thing Patrick has decided needs protecting, apparently, is the national anthem: He’s stated that a piece of legislation called “the Star Spangled Banner Protection Act” is another one of his priorities for this session, in an effort to combat Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban.)

SA Jewish Report told to apologise for anti-Semitism slur aimed at Palestine activists


According to the SA Jewish Report, the SA BDS Coalition cartoon depicted “a greedy, overweight giant of a man eating a pile of money while the ‘man on the street’ is drawn as a small, insignificant figure sitting in front of an empty plate. The image of a Clover product fills the rest of the frame.”
The cartoon did not contain any reference to Jews or Israel but the newspaper said the Palestine activists had “shown their true colours” by posting “what clearly looks like an anti-Semitic cartoon”.
The headline on the article said, “Anti-Semitic Clover cartoon is BDS’s sour ‘last gasp’ ", which attracted the ire of complainant Hassen Lorgat, a member of the Palestine Solidarity Alliance, on behalf of the SA BDS Coalition and the General Industries Workers Union of SA (Giwusa), the majority union at Clover.

congresswoman tlaib or omar is self diluting or self hating. he shouldn't have generalized about all democrats. the democratic party is having a terrific fightht for the soul ad heart of the party. and, i remain a democrat in order to make sure that members of congress like tlaib and omar are marginalized. every democrat has an obligation to condemn these two women and others who violate the tradition of bipartisan support for israel. israel is the greatest ally that america has, sharing intelligence, sharing military resources. and these two members of congress and a handful of others are trying to undercut that. are trying to make israel into a wedge issue where radicals on the left support the boycott, divestment and sanctions. they want to boycott israel. they don't want to boycott syria, iran and look at china
