The Israeli government’s defiance of American Jewish opinion in passing a law gutting judicial independence represents a huge crisis for American Zionists.

The Jenin onslaught further damaged Israel’s reputation in the U.S., and J Street knows it. No wonder the liberal Zionist group had almost nothing to say even as AIPAC and the ADL and Josh Gottheimer, too, were defending Israel.

Antony Blinken resurrected the two-state zombie in his address to AIPAC on the 56th anniversary of the 1967 War. But the number of true believers in Washington who buy these fantasies is dwindling.

The well-funded bipartisan group “No Labels” wants politicians to compromise, but its CEO says “there is no middle ground” when it comes to Israel. Why is media coverage leaving this part of the story out?

The venom of the Israel lobby toward the Nakba is understandable. Acknowledging the Nakba doesn’t just undermine the “miracle” of Israel, but the state’s legitimacy in the eyes of idealistic Americans.

When Rashida Tlaib tweeted about the 75th anniversary of the Nakba, AIPAC described her history as “dangerous lies.” Meanwhile, liberal Zionist statements on Israel’s founding contain Nakba denial as well.

A conversation between two leading U.S. rabbis show how strong the red lines still are in the organized Jewish community with regard to Israel.

Longtime Israel lobbyist Martin Indyk says Joe Biden’s rebuke of Benjamin Netanyahu last month will have dramatic consequences on the Israeli leader’s ability to influence US politics.

Al Franken expresses anti-Palestinian views when he dismisses their experience of Zionism and overlooks the Nakba, when 750,000 were expelled from their homes.

Progressive favorite Rep. Katie Porter met with AIPAC to prepare for a recent junket to Israel and came away from the trip “extremely impressed” by Benjamin Netanyahu.
