In 2012, our family had the great delight of spending an evening and early morning in Jerusalem watching @SirPatStew (Sir Patrick Stewart) film a scene for โ€œHunting Elephants.โ€ He was warm and gracious, and especially sweet with our young daughters. His remarkable career brought joy to generations of audiences. May his memory live long and prosper.

"Fewer than half of Americans know that Israel is a democracy that holds elections. Just 27% know that Arab citizens vote in those elections, and only 21% know that Arab citizens serve in Israelโ€™s parliament. These are basic facts about a country that occupies an extraordinary amount of space in American political debate... Antisemitism has survived for centuries by reinventing itself. It absorbs the grievances of the moment, borrows the language of prevailing political movements, and finds new ways to make old prejudices seem reasonable. Today, it has the added advantage of an information ecosystem that rewards outrage, amplifies conspiracy theories, and discourages reflection." My latest in @eJPhil ejewishphilanthropy.com/amerโ€ฆ

Young Americans struggle to recognize antisemitism online, especially when it targets Israel and Zionism. But our new study with Boundless found one simple nudge works: remind people that most Americans reject antisemitism. Speak up. Report it. ๐Ÿ‘‡

I look forward to Sinaโ€™s judgement on the next set of Iranian elections. Will they have more than one permitted candidates? Maybe two.
So it seems Israel faces two main scenarios amid political gridlock: Netanyahu forming a coalition with Bennett, or Eisenkot with Palestinian parties, though he'll then lose Lieberman and likely his path to a majority. And, in any case, Trump wants Netanyahu and will probably have his way. The election itself was a telling reflection of the extremism, racism, exclusionary politics, and deeply undemocratic character of Israel's political system, where even the idea of governing with Palestinian parties is politically unacceptable, even at the cost of forfeiting power to your rival!

Deeply honored to be appointed by @GovKathyHochul to the New York State Holocaust Memorial Commission. At a time of rising antisemitism, it is more important than ever that we honor the memory of the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust, recognize the survivors, and ensure that future generations understand where hatred can lead. jewishinsider.com/2026/10/hoโ€ฆ

โ€œSome conservatives, like longtime Reagan aide and former Attorney General Ed Meese, made it a rule not to leak not only because they distrusted reporters but also because they believed it undermined the president for whom they worked. That principled stand contributed to Mr. Meeseโ€™s bad press, but itโ€™s undoubtedly a more honorable way to serve an administration.โ€ @TeviTroy in @WSJFreeEx wsj.com/opinion/free-expressโ€ฆ

Bret Stephens in NYT: "Yes, Israel is a flawed country thatโ€™s not above reproach. But itโ€™s difficult to take Israelโ€™s inveterate critics seriously when they demand a โ€œFree Palestineโ€ without registering the slightest audible objection to the tyrannies in Ramallah and Gaza; or when, in the name of freedom and equality, they seek to abolish the Middle Eastโ€™s only functioning liberal democracy." nytimes.com/2026/10/27/opiniโ€ฆ
