Search ArticlesThe Historic Racism Behind the ‘AIPAC Monkey’ Slur
Rula Jebreal’s description of Hakeem Jeffries as an “AIPAC monkey” and “errand boy” invokes two of the most historically recognizable anti-Black racist tropes. Anti-Black racism has deep roots in the Arab world, from centuries of African slavery to racial slurs, discrimination and modern systems of exploitation. Jebreal’s attack combines anti-Black racism with Jew-hate: the Black politician is denied agency and reduced to a puppet supposedly purchased and controlled by Jews.
The West Bank is not a “Palestinian Territory”
Today, an article by David Lynch of PA Media (note: formerly the Press Association, not to be confused with the Palestinian Authority) was picked up by several news aggregators, including Yahoo!

The main topic of the piece is the British Shadow Foreign Secretary’s wholly defensible assertion that the sanctions against Israel threatened by UK Prime Minister Burnham and Foreign Secretary Miliband could risk national security.

Unfortunately, she is also a textbook case of someone who should stick to acting.
Must-Read New York Times Commentary Causes Hamas Fans’ Meltdown
Atlantic Council senior fellow Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib is a rarity. A Palestinian who grew up in Gaza, now using his think tank platform in the United States to publicly criticize Hamas and call for a better Palestinian future that doesn’t revolve around destroying Israel. Even rarer is calling anything in The New York Times a must-read. But Alkhatib’s commentary is certainly not the kind of content we are used to seeing there. Here are just a few excerpts out of so many we could have included.
Does the House’s Anti-Boycott Bill Really Threaten Free Speech?
On September 3, 2026, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Protect Economic and Academic Freedom Act of 2026, known as H.R. 4795, which targets official university boycotts of Israel. If enacted, H.R. 4795 would bar colleges and universities from participating in federal student aid programs if they engage in commercial boycotts intended to limit relations with Israel or covered Israeli entities without a valid business reason.
Weapons Depots, Torture Centers & Tunnels: How Hamas Turned Gaza’s Hospitals Into Terror Hubs
Key Takeaways: Hamas has methodically turned Gaza’s hospitals from centers of healing into terrorist bases. Through three years of war, Israeli forces have uncovered weapons, tunnels, and command-and-control centers in numerous Gazan hospitals. The hospitals are but one example of how Hamas and its terrorist allies have exploited civilian sites for nefarious purposes, stripping them of their legal protections.
Hamas Confirms Child Soldier Use in October 7 War After Arabic Media Embraces Tactic

Must-Read: David Harsanyi Dismantles the Gaza “Genocide” Libel
No credible person argues that Palestinians in Gaza do not suffer because of Hamas’ endless nihilistic wars against Israel. But the charge of genocide, along with “famine,” “ethnic cleansing,” and “apartheid,” has been manufactured by a conglomeration of anti-Israel organizations that have been priming the public for decades.
