I’ve been a Jewish activist for the better part of the last fifteen years. I started because I simply couldn’t stay silent. I knew that it’s not that people simply “didn’t get” Israel. I knew that there was something else, something deeper. A hidden force which was coordinating this slander against the world’s only Jewish state. And then I met @JSchanzer and was exposed to his work with @FDD and I was shocked.
Years ago, Jonathan had uncovered that this vitriol on campuses is a network of professionally coordinated heavily funded campaign by nefarious forces to delegitimize the state of Israel. To prepare the public opinion for the right moment take her down by all means necessary. I quoted Jonathan’s work in my book and have been speaking about this issue all over the country and the world for years, waiting for the right moment when the people will be ready to listen. Yesterday that moment had come.
I was honored to be invited to testify in front of the @WaysandMeansGOP on Capitol Hill about the connection between campus antisemitism and terrorism financing. The members were engaged and listened to us thoroughly for the four hours of the testimony. We have requested that the FBI and IRS will open an investigation into the organizations behind all this campus hate, specifically SJP and AMP. We have requested that SJP to be kicked off of campuses. We are requesting that people take a pause, before reciting a terrorist group’s talking point.
So now the real work begins.
אתמול היה לי הכבוד לתת עדות מול הקונגרס בנושא הקשר בין אנטישמיות בקמפוסים ומימון טרור. אנחנו יודעים מי מאחורי השנאה הזאת ולא נעצור עד שננצח אותם. ישראל חזקה גם בשטח גם מול חמאס וגם בחזית ההסברה.

One of the best ever. Legendary hall of fame football player, All-American Lacrosse player, and took 5th in the NCAA decathlon! Successful actor. And most importantly a civil rights activist and leader. What a life and impact. #JimBrown
1962: "Martin Luther King presses forward but he presses forward without the use of violence and with the constant hope that there will be love and understanding growing out of each new gain."
I am saddened to hear of the passing of Mikhail Gorbachev. He was a man who tried to deliver a better life for his people. His life was consequential because, without him and his courage, it would not have been possible to end the Cold War peacefully.
@jayjamescarter Much congratulations for ‘Champions Day’. A magnificent read, remarkably researched. As someone who has spent significant time in Shanghai for many years, I’ve always been interested in its unique history and heritage. An unprecedented era. Extremely well done!

@HelenZiaReal Much congratulations for ‘Last Boat Out of Shanghai’. A magnificent read of the Shanghai diaspora, similar to myriad other cultures & groups. As someone who has spent significant time in Shanghai, I found the 4 main subjects poignant & moving. Couldn’t put it down.
