Text of the page (random words):
theory follows a recognizable chain of reasoning the second kind works very differently it begins with a worldview that history is shaped by hidden forces operating behind governments and public events facts are gathered afterward to support that assumption for centuries one of the most enduring versions of that worldview has been antisemitic the claim that jews secretly manipulate governments wars finance or the media the alleged hidden actor changes with the era but the underlying story remains remarkably consistent antisemites from nazi germany to rep rashida tlaib d mi talk about jews operating in the shadows that helps explain why some recent conspiracy theories about the murder of charlie kirk have implicated israel or mossad where the alleged motive is counterintuitive the target is chosen less because of the evidence than because it fits an existing narrative about hidden power one conspiracy theory asks who had the motive the other asks who do i already believe secretly runs the world the first can be tested against evidence the second is designed to survive it today s front pages will convey that a strong advocate of american allies defense against common american foes has died he will be mourned by conservatives in the united states and supporters of ukraine and israel in the not too distant future in our crazy conspiratorial laden present new distinct strains of headlines are likely to emerge type your email subscribe share this tweet share on reddit opens in new window reddit email a link to a friend opens in new window email

scientists have long observed that ideas do not need majority support to transform a community research on social norms has repeatedly found that once a committed minority reaches roughly 25 to 30 percent of a group opinions once considered beyond the pale can become normalized the overton window shifts people become more willing to voice views they once kept private because they no longer fear social disapproval that is what makes pew research center s july 2026 findings so alarming in 2024 pew found that 37 of american muslims viewed hamas favorably two years later that figure has risen to 44 july 2026 pew poll showing 44 of american muslims support hamas almost the same as the palestinian authority this is a gross outlier relative to all other americans vile extremism has not only been mainstreamed in the american muslim community it is accelerating hamas is not merely another palestinian political movement it is a u s designated terrorist organization that carried out the october 7 massacre its members murdered civilians took hostages committed widespread sexual violence and burned families alive hamas has long promoted antisemitic ideology seeks israel s destruction refuses to disarm or allow civilians to use its protective shelters and has repeatedly embedded military operations among civilians leaving gaza s population to be destroyed forty four percent is not a fringe it is well above the level social scientists associate with changing social norms it is the norm viewed through that lens the chants heard on american streets become easier to understand globalize the intifada is no longer merely the slogan of isolated radicals celebrating the killing of jews no longer needs to be hidden but can be posted on social media for american jews this is not an abstract polling result hamas and globalize the intifada mean antisemitic violent jihad it is the embrace of a death cult a poll showing growing favorability of hamas inevitably deepens fear that the moral barrier has been broken and violence is near but this is not only a jewish concern no society should become comfortable with growing support for a terrorist organization whose defining acts include the deliberate murder of civilians hostage taking and an explicitly antisemitic ideology when favorable views of such an organization increase rather than decline after its atrocities the implications extend beyond the community it targets they speak to the moral health of the the american muslim community every community contains extremists the defining question is whether they remain isolated or become influential enough to reshape what is considered acceptable pew s findings suggest that sympathy for hamas is no longer confined to the margins of american muslim opinion it has become substantial enough to influence public discourse and to shape the boundaries of acceptable speech and likely action the hamas charter is the most antisemitic governmental charter ever produced the issue has grown beyond hamas in gaza it is american hamas the normalization of support for a terrorist organization within american society if support for hamas among american muslims has risen from 37 to 44 in just two years americans should ask not only what this means for jews but what it says about the values we are willing to tolerate in america the greatest danger is not merely that extremists exist it is that extremism ceases to be recognized as extreme type your email subscribe share this tweet share on reddit opens in new window reddit email a link to a friend opens in new

first one through reply as the israelites prepare to enter the land of israel in matot masei the tribes of reuben and gad ask for permission to settle east of the jordan moses agrees but with one condition they may not enjoy the security of their own homes until they first help the other tribes secure theirs the message is striking before you settle comfortably into your own inheritance help your community establish theirs it is not charity but community responsibility every tribe had a rightful place in the land every family deserved the opportunity to build a secure home the community could not be considered settled until everyone had the chance to settle thousands of years later most of us no longer inherit farmland we build our lives through careers instead our land is our livelihood that is where another torah command offers a practical model earlier in the torah god commands farmers when you reap the harvest of your land you shall not reap all the way to the corners of your field you shall leave them for the poor and the stranger leviticus 19 9 10 the mitzvot of pe ah and leket required every farmer to leave part of the harvest behind generosity was built into the act of production itself jean françois millet s the gleaners 1857 today our field is no longer measured in acres but in calendars so what if we left the corner of our workweek instead imagine reserving part of every friday to help someone establish a livelihood mentor a college student wondering how to begin a career introduce an unemployed neighbor to someone in your network coach an underemployed professional preparing for interviews spend an hour helping someone discover opportunities they cannot reach alone the greatest barrier facing many young adults today is not a lack of talent it is a lack of access to mentors relationships introductions and guidance a single conversation can redirect a career one introduction can change the course of a life matot masei teaches that we are responsible for helping others reach a place of security before we simply enjoy our own pe ah teaches us to leave part of what we produce for others together they suggest a modern mitzvah leave the corner of your workweek to help others the harvest is no longer wheat for many of us it is knowledge experience influence and opportunity so perhaps one of the holiest things we can do is use part of ours to help someone else build a future of their own type your email subscribe share this tweet share on reddit opens in new window reddit email a link to a friend opens in new window email share

through 1 the debate over american support for ukraine and israel has largely focused on the cost politicians argue over billions of dollars appropriated weapons transferred and whether american taxpayers are carrying too much of the burden far less attention has been paid to the return on that investment since 2022 the united states has authorized roughly 195 billion related to ukraine and approximately 16 22 billion in supplemental wartime assistance for israel critics see enormous expenditures strategically however those dollars have enabled two allies to inflict historic damage on two of america s principal adversaries russia and iran without the united states deploying large combat formations or suffering the thousands of battlefield casualties that defined vietnam iraq and afghanistan that comparison matters the wars in iraq and afghanistan cost the united states more than 5 trillion in direct and related costs with broader post 9 11 war obligations rising above 8 trillion when future veteran care interest and long term commitments are included nearly 7 000 american service members were killed more than 52 000 were wounded and what was the lasting strategic benefit afghanistan ended with the taliban back in power iraq removed saddam hussein but the aftermath empowered iran fractured the region drained american credibility and produced years of instability the united states paid in terrible blood and treasure and the final balance sheet is hard to defend ukraine and israel present a very different model consider russia more than four years after launching its invasion of ukraine russia has suffered an estimated 1 4 million military casualties including approximately 450 000 dead its armored forces have been severely depleted the black sea fleet has largely been driven from its historic operating areas ukraine has repeatedly demonstrated the ability to strike deep inside russian territory the military once regarded as nato s greatest conventional threat has been dramatically weakened the number of russian casualties and fatalities are astonishing since world war ii no major power has suffered anywhere near these numbers of casualties or fatalities in any war russia s economy is in distress and russia s wartime spending may be increasingly untenable center for strategic and international studies july 2026 now consider iran for four decades the leading state sponsor of terrorism invested billions of dollars constructing what it proudly called the axis of resistance a network stretching from iran through iraq and syria to lebanon and gaza hamas hezbollah shiite militias the houthis and the assad regime were components of a single strategy designed to project iranian power surround israel and challenge american influence in the region and threaten much of the global oil supply that strategy has suffered a tremendous setback hamas has lost much of its military and infrastructure hezbollah has absorbed devastating blows to its command structure and missile capabilities the assad regime in syria tehran s indispensable arab ally and the geographic bridge connecting iran to hezbollah has fallen shattering the land corridor that iran spent decades building the regional network that once appeared to surround israel and terrorize america s arab allies now is dramatically weakened iran s nuclear ambitions have suffered major setbacks as well israeli and american strikes severely damaged key nuclear facilities disrupted important elements of iran s enrichment infrastructure and forced tehran to devote enormous resources simply to rebuilding capabilities it once assumed were secure intelligence agencies continue to debate precisely how long the program has been delayed but there is broad agreement that it suffered one of the most significant setbacks in its history none of this diminishes the immense human suffering ukraine has endured staggering casualties and destruction israel suffered the deadliest attack in its history on october 7 and has paid a heavy military economic and emotional price ever since but viewed through an american lens of grand strategy another reality emerges rather than sending hundreds of thousands of american troops to fight russia or iran directly as was done in afghanistan and iraq the united states enabled allies already under attack to defend themselves those allies have imposed extraordinary military and strategic costs on governments that have spent decades challenging american interests this is what is so often missing from the public debate the wars are typically discussed separately ukraine is presented as a european conflict while israel is portrayed as a middle eastern conflict yet both russia and iran were strategic partners cooperating militarily economically and diplomatically while sharing an interest in weakening the united states and the western alliance seen together ukraine and israel have not merely been fighting for their own survival they have been successfully degrading two pillars of a powerful anti western axis the long term upside could be enormous a surviving western aligned ukraine would become one of europe s most battle tested militaries a major reconstruction market an energy and agricultural partner and a permanent barrier to russian expansion a stronger israel with iran weakened and syria and lebanon no longer functioning as tehran s strategic bridge could help reshape the middle east around technology defense cooperation energy corridors trade and normalization with arab states that increasingly fear iran more than they resent israel that is the opportunity iraq and afghanistan never produced those wars consumed american power and america left no assets behind these wars fought by allies may extend american power with powerful allies at the vanguard history may conclude that this period represents one of the most effective uses of american alliance power in generations for roughly 215 billion less than one twentieth of the direct and related cost of iraq and afghanistan the united states helped enable allies to severely weaken russia s conventional military fracture iran s regional proxy empire remove syria and lebanon from tehran s sphere of influence and significantly set back iran s nuclear program all without committing large american ground forces or sustaining the massive battlefield casualties that characterized previous generations of u s warfare america s greatest military victory in the past 75 years may ultimately be its most
