The Pathetic Apologetics of Caroline Glick

April 11, 2014/2 Comments/in Featured Articles, Jewish Ethnocentrism, Jewish Self-deception/by Brenton Sanderson

Editor’s note: As someone who has written chapters on Jewish apologia and self-deception, I have to say that Caroline Glick may be the most extreme case I have ever encountered. One struggles for words to describe her rabid ethnocentrism and how it blinds her to the most obvious realities. Jews are morally superior paragons of […]

Canard sighting: Jonathan Tobin in Commentary

February 25, 2014/2 Comments/in General/by Kevin MacDonald

One has the feeling that the pro-Israel community in the U.S. is increasingly on the defensive. Jonathan Tobin’s “Anti-Zionists Must Not Be Allowed to Hijack the Jewish Community” is Abe Foxmanesque in its tone of embattled righteousness — and for two (two!) uses of the canard strategy (i.e., the strategy that if a belief related […]

Critical Theory in the American University: A Critical Issue, Part Three

November 17, 2013/in Bias in Academia, Featured Articles/by Robert S. Griffin, Ph.D.

Read Parts One and Two before proceeding here. It is remarkable how universal a negative, critical, view of Whites as a race is in today’s university. Every course, every speaker, every professional article and book, every “welcome week” activity in the fall, every program in the dorms, every word uttered in faculty meetings, every […]

Philip Weiss on Jewish Success

August 1, 2013/9 Comments/in Featured Articles, Jews as An Elite/by Kevin MacDonald

Philip Weiss, ever (self-)conscious of the power of Jews in American society, has another meditation on the topic (“Jewish success– is it ever a story?). Once again, the larger point is that Jewish power is off limits for public discussion—a theme that goes back at least as far as Wilmot Robertson’s Dispossessed Majority in the […]

Léon de Poncins: The Problem with the Jews at the Council, Part II

July 24, 2013/in Anti-Jewish Writing, Catholic Church, Featured Articles/by George F. Held

IV. Jules Isaac and the Church Fathers In the second of these works—Genèse de l’antisémitisme—published in 1956, Jules Isaac strove to discredit the Fathers of the Church. It is impossible to summarize in a few words a volume of 350 pages. Let us limit ourselves to mentioning some of its most characteristic passages: It is […]

Justice Denied: Thoughts on Truth, ‘Canards’and the Marc Rich Case: Part Two of Two

May 12, 2013/in Anti-Defamation League, Featured Articles, Jewish Self-deception/by Andrew Joyce, Ph.D.

In the aftermath of their indictment, one of the earliest strategies that Rich, Green, and their lawyers attempted to employ was that of claiming anti-Semitism was behind the legal measures brought against them: both claimed that they had been singled out because they were Jews. And so we find ourselves finding truth behind another ‘canard’ […]

Samuel Goldman on Nathaniel Rich: “mild nepotism” or ethnic networking?

May 4, 2013/in Featured Articles, Jewish Ethnic Networking/by Kevin MacDonald

Jewish ethnic networking has been a theme at TOO, ranging from appointments to the Supreme Court (notoriously, Elena Kagan), admissions to elite universities, the world of art (e.g., Mark Rothko), literature (e.g., pro-Israel writers Shani Boianjiu and Risa Miller), and philosophy (e.g., Spinoza). Not to mention the intellectuals discussed in The Culture o f Critique. Now […]
