FLEISHER: The New Yorker Promotes Far-Left, Radical Islamist Team-Up Against Israel

Yishai Fleisher

Recently, The New Yorker printed a hit-piece against the Jews living in the heart of Judea entitled, “A Guided Tour of Hebron, from Two Sides of the Occupation.” The unintentionally ironic title “from Two Sides” is the key to understanding the article because the two sides it shows come from the hard-Left and radical Islamism, respectively.

Indeed, the article is another example of the collaboration between the hard-Left and radical Islamism, movements that have coordinated to delegitimize Israel’s right to retain land liberated in the Six Day War as a way to delegitimize Israel as a whole. Now, they have specifically set their crosshairs on Hebron in the “West Bank” because they understand the centrality of Hebron to Jewish peoplehood, to its land and history. Additionally, they see the small and isolated Jewish community within the big Arab city of Hebron and ruled by the Palestinian Authority as an easy next target.
