Much sweat and ink has been spilled on the question of when and whether anti-Zionism slides in antisemitism.

The case of a UK academic, David Miller, has brought the issue into sharp focus, with his fantasies of Zionist global control and unfiltered attacks on Jewish students on his own campus, explored in op-eds by David Feldman and Nicole Lampert.

In Israel, less than three weeks remain to round four of an two-year election groundhog day. For moderates in Israel’s religious Zionist camp, like Anton Goodman, Netanyahu’s vote pact with the Kahanist far right is a bitter blow to years of campaigning against the embrace of extremists.

Rachel S. Harris explains how Israeli and Palestinian men have found a rare shared cause: uniting to destroy one Arab woman’s political career.

There have been many calls for Israel to get COVID vaccines to the Palestinians on legal and moral grounds: Joseph Buch and Nadav Davidovitch call for an immediate supply on public health emergency grounds – and for Israelis’ benefit, too.

Two immigrants to Israel explore how the policing of Jewish identity in Israel, backed by the state, turns into discrimination and humiliation. For Jotam Confino, it alienated him from Judaism; for Arkadi Muzin, it distanced him from Israel itself.

While India and Israel have celebrated the Netanyahu-Modi bromance with song and dance, Samaan Lateef asks why the New Delhi government is honoring an antisemitic, pro-genocide Hitler devotee – and what connects Hindu nationalism and Nazism.
