Trump’s “Muslim Ban” A Gift to Terrorists

By Ali Olomi

…izens of seven predominantly Muslim countries: Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.” The response to the proposal has been swift; spontaneous protests in support of immigrants and Muslims took place in airports across the nation, advocacy groups (successfully, so far) challenged portions of the order, while public figures like Madeleine Albright vowed to register as a Muslim. The immigration ban on refugees from Muslim-majority coun…

A New Frontier for Democrats and Religion?

By Sarah Posner

…, as a young kid.” He even hinted that the public should expect a meeting between President Obama and Pope Francis soon. The Pope Francis moment, even with its hype—perhaps because of its hype—seems to present both Kerry and President Obama with an opportunity to talk about religion on their own terms: as a potential contributor to peacemaking and justice, rather than a battleground for the culture wars. At home, Obama is still the subject of vit…

Electability of Biden is More ‘Conventional’—and Less ‘Wisdom’

By Branko Marcetic

…ed military action in countries as far afield as the former Yugoslavia and Sudan, and was part of the administration that fought the disastrous war in Libya. A social conservative for much of his career, Biden’s record on gay and abortion rights will further alienate the Democratic base, with his sudden, late-stage “evolutions” on these issues already being viewed as opportunistic. Ditto with Biden’s courting of corporate donors and trashing of Me…

…their discriminatory work permits. These “guest” workers, who today number between 250,000 and 400,000 (half of whom are illegal) did not only toil. They fell in love and established families and had children, probably more than 2,000 children, who were sent to state-run schools like Tel Aviv’s Bialik-Rogozin to learn with young Israelis their age to read, to write and to add and subtract—in Hebrew. They also were taught about the miraculous creat…

Is ‘Western Self-Hatred’ the Problem in the Gaza War Protest Movement?

By Shaul Magid

…the near complete destruction of Gaza as “anti-Western” isn’t a whole lot better than dismissing it as just another manifestation of “eternal antisemitism.” And neither provides ample nuance to understand the Left’s anger at what’s transpiring in Gaza. It’s not unreasonable to see that Gaza today has become the embodiment of people living under a crushing war in an utterly dysfunctional situation with nowhere to go. Whether this is a legitimate r…

Does the Right Even Know Why it’s so Threatened by Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce?

By Mary Rambaran-Olm

…here people are being ethnically cleansed in places like Palestine, Congo, Sudan, and Rohingya would be even better. We’ve been here before. Silence is complicity—and no matter how the Right or the pop-culture world spin the Swift/Kelce story, it’s all about generating outrage to fill pockets while we ignore and suppress an instinctive human connection we all have deep within us. Maybe there’s an argument to be made that these are simply singers a…

Trump’s Muslim Ban and the History of Stolen Citizenship in America

By Hussein Rashid and Murali Balaji

…er fraud or Muslim terrorists) to justify certain actions. These are often promoted under the premise of upholding American values, when in reality they maliciously target the concept of equal citizenship in a democracy. What Trump has done is bring out into the open what had previously been done behind the scenes, or with little fanfare. He is now boasting of disenfranchising those from Muslim-majority countries under the call of being a “law and…
