Advocate’s Brief: Monday, March 16
The war against Iran is succeeding — and the campaign to punish Jews for it is accelerating faster than any government is willing to stop.
Shalom, friends.
A note on timing: this edition publishes today instead of Tuesday — tomorrow is a non-publishing day for Israel Brief due to a personal annual observance. We’ll be back Thursday with the daily brief.
A Lebanese man drove a truck into America’s largest Reform synagogue — with a preschool full of toddlers — and opened fire. A Shiite front group with Iranian proxy hallmarks bombed three European synagogues in a single week, then hit a Jewish school in Amsterdam for good measure. In London, hundreds defied a Home Office ban to wave portraits of a supreme leader who cannot show his face. Your conversations this week will center on one question: who is responsible for the violence against Jews — the Jews, or the people committing it?
