With tent cities springing up across American campuses, filled with antisemitic activists who are openly supporting U.S.-designated foreign terrorist organizations, you could be forgiven for suspecting that this activism was not wholly organic.

PHILADELPHIA—Victoria Coates, a national security expert at The Heritage Foundation, traveled Thursday to the City of Brotherly Love with a cadre of security personnel to deliver this simple but now radical belief at the University of Pennsylvania: “Hating Jews is a bad idea.” Following Coates’ remarks to the Penn Alumni Free Speech Alliance and the…

The leftist “free expression” group PEN America collided with a brick wall of radicals who don’t like anyone who expresses a sympathetic view of Israel after the Hamas slaughter of Oct. 7.

President Joe Biden’s recent foreign policy moves are baffling. By any rational standard, they are undermining Israel and helping Hamas.

President Joe Biden’s decision to float a possible two-state solution in the aftermath of Hamas’ terrorist attacks on Israel on Oct. 7 incentivizes terrorism and may inspire radical Islamist terrorist attacks in the U.S., a member of the Knesset, Israel’s parliament, tells “The Daily Signal Podcast.” Ohad Tal, a member of the Religious Zionist Party…

If you say “men give birth,” we all know your position on Hamas. Now, why is that? Why, if a person says “men give birth” or says that men who say they are women should be allowed to compete in women’s sports, can we be virtually certain that the person sides with Hamas in its…

The chairman of Hamas’ decision-making body urged Muslims across the world to “build on” the horrific terrorist attacks on Israel of Oct. 7, which he characterized as a “victory,” and to send money to Hamas in what he called a “financial jihad.” Ismail Haniyeh, head of Hamas’ political bureau, spoke at the International Union of…

For a week now, the world has watched a high-stakes, emotionally draining, and dangerous game being played out in Gaza. What began as a mediated four-day “truce” and swap of 50 Israeli civilians held hostage by Hamas in exchange for 150 convicted Palestinian-Arab terrorists has now been dragged out much further. Hamas, unusually self-aware for…

The American kidnap victim released by the terrorist group Hamas during its ongoing cease-fire with Israel is a great-niece of Elizabeth Hirsh Naftali, a major Democratic Party donor who paid handsomely for Hunter Biden’s art and won an appointment to a plum cultural post from President Joe Biden. Hirsh Naftali’s Biden connections went all but…

The…

An Oakland City Council hearing revealed where left-wing views of justice lead, when the council debated a resolution Monday night to call for a cease-fire in the conflict between Israel and Hamas. Deep blue, out-of-touch cities in the San Francisco Bay Area often like to play United Nations, so that’s hardly news. What created a…
