Maybe instead of "civiltarians" focusing on bridge building and "reaching out to the other side," we should 1) focus on people among us (our own tribes, as it were), to reform their behavior and word choices, and 2) find ways to reward civil behavior instead of harmful clickbait that exacerbates the problem. What gets rewarded gets repeated, or worse.
Anyone who still thinks "globalize the intifada" is just benign free speech, has sided with the enemy of Western Civilization, and of course the Jews.
As to the failed assassination attempt, this is the newest version of the 65 year old leftist radical manifesto. Not only do they proudly pronounce their righteousness, but now the media responds to their actions as a position worthy of consideration. Both social and mainstream media thereby normalize the murderous antidemocratic acts as possibly reasonable and defendable.
In total, we must remain alert to and vigilantly fight back against this mindset!
Excellent column. I was surprised the Prine Minister finally came forward to denounce violence and hate rhetoric against the Jewish people in his country. A little too late. Hate speech does kill indirectly as it incites violence among Jew haters It's scary though that the man who attempted to assasinateTrump and members of his administration was not a mentally deranged person but rather an intelligent man who now has destroyed his life and those near and dear to him.
