Opinion: Jewish Liberals Have No Friends on the Left
This opinion piece from the New York Post argues that Jewish Americans have mistakenly maintained loyal support for the Democratic Party despite rising antisemitism within leftist circles. The author contrasts the silence of Democratic leaders and liberal media, such as The New York Times, regarding recent anti-Jewish violence in Brooklyn and controversial reporting on Israel, with the vocal condemnation offered by conservative figures. The article criticizes Jewish organizations like the Anti-Defamation League for allegedly applying double standards by harshly judging right-wing incidents while offering tepid responses to left-wing antisemitism. It highlights specific examples, including a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo and the Times' handling of Hamas atrocity reports, to illustrate the perceived betrayal. The author contends that while antisemitism exists on both sides, the political right is currently more active in defending Jewish communities against lies and violence, urging Jewish liberals to reconsider their political alliances.
