Israel's Legal Founding - Prager University

When the state of Israel was founded in 1948, it was done so with the approval of the United Nations. But today, Israel's enemies routinely challenge the legitimacy of its very existence. So, under international law, who's right? Israel? Or its enemies?

An Ominous Boycott of Jewish Businesses in New York City

An Anti-Jewish Mob Shouts at Rabbi Shmuley and his Children: “F—ck off!" "Go F—ck yourself!” Mobs targeting businesses in New York City claim to be anti-Israel but are clearly anti-Jewish.

"Jews of the world: Wake up. There has never been an assault on us like this in our lifetimes. And we are allowing it. Through out timidity and through closing our eyes and pretending not to see, it’s growing. Our enemies are arraying against us. They have substituted anti-Israelism for anti-Semitism.
