The Israeli canary in the West’s cultural coal mine
The attacks on Ben-Gvir’s Temple Mount excursion defy reason
JNS - Jewish News Syndicate 08.01.2023
Those scratching their heads over the way Western liberals have lost all connection with reason over issues of race, gender and Western “colonialism” might usefully look at the reaction to Itamar Ben-Gvir’s visit to Jerusalem’s Temple Mount this week.
Here was a Jew walking for 15 minutes on the site that is most sacred to Judaism. He did it without fanfare or media attention, early in the morning when the compound was almost empty and didn’t pray there or say anything to stir up trouble.
In any sane universe, this is simply unhinged. Ben-Gvir was fully entitled to be there.
