This article was originally published in The Jerusalem Post on September 22nd, written by Adam Milstein. Ezra Klein’s recent New York Times op-ed analyzed the “divide in Jewish community’s views on Israel.” There’s one major problem with this piece. Klein, like many prominent Jewish voices on the left, leverages his Jewish identity to gain progressive credibility while fundamentally misrepresenting the Jewish-American community he claims to speak for. People like Klein, and the ...| Adam Milstein | Venture Philanthropist
This article was written published by the Jerusalem Post, written by Adam Milstein. Among the members of the American Islamo-leftist alliance, New York Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani is widely viewed as a rising star and likely the next mayor of America’s largest city. But his ascent should alarm anyone who still believes in the foundational principles of the Democratic Party and the health of America’s political system. Mamdani reflects the slippery slope direction the party is headed for, i...| Adam Milstein | Venture Philanthropist
This article was originally published in InFocus magazine, written by Adam Milstein. On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists massacred more than 1,200 innocent people in Israel, most of them civilians, wounded another 3,400, and kidnapped 251 individuals to the Gaza Strip, of whom (as of May 2025), 58 hostages were still being held in Gaza, with 20 believed to be alive and 38 confirmed dead. But the real shock came not just from the barbaric attack and the torture and rape of the hostages, bu...| Adam Milstein | Venture Philanthropist
This article was originally published by The Jerusalem Post on 6/25/25. On June 21, 2025, the United States and Israel deepened their historic partnership, as American warplanes struck Iran’s nuclear sites at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan in a decisive blow against barbarism. For the first time, the U.S. allowed an ally to lead: Israel’s Operation Rising Lion, using F-35 jets, cleared Iran’s skies and softened targets, paving the way for U.S. B-2 stealth bombers with GBU-57 bunker-buster ...| Adam Milstein | Venture Philanthropist
This article was originally published in the Jerusalem Post on 5/22/25, written by Adam Milstein. A dangerous new ideology is taking root on the American right. What began as a sensible “America First” doctrine to prioritize American interests has, in some circles, morphed into an “America Only” worldview that views global engagement as a threat. Implementing this ideology would prove catastrophic for the world and dangerous for America. “America First” is a call for strategic, ...| Adam Milstein | Venture Philanthropist
This article was originally published by the Jerusalem Post on April, 24th, 2025. “This American empire must fall” This statement did not come from Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, from Vladimir Putin of Russia, or from China’s Xi Jinping. It came from a Muslim American resident of Dearborn, Michigan, who added: “People are willing to fight and put their lives on the line to bring these Western empires down.” It is a chilling reminder that calls for the destruction of America and We...| Adam Milstein | Venture Philanthropist
This article was originally published in the Jerusalem Post on March, 23rd 2025. What do a Yale scholar, a Columbia student, a Georgetown researcher, 60 colleges and universities under investigation for relentless antisemitic eruptions, and Hamas – have in common? In traditional times, the answer should be absolutely nothing. Institutions like Yale, Harvard, UPenn, Georgetown, and Columbia were once guardians of liberal democratic values, committed to fighting hatred and violence. Yet, to...| Adam Milstein | Venture Philanthropist
This article was originally published in The Jerusalem Post on February 23nd, 2025, written by Adam Milstein. Throughout history, political movements, even those not initially antisemitic, have often seen their most radical factions steer them toward antisemitism. In recent years, segments of the American left have embraced militant Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives, Critical Race Theory (CRT), Marxist ideologies, and policies that exacerbate societal divisions. This shift ...| Adam Milstein | Venture Philanthropist
This article was originally published in The Jerusalem Post on January 22nd, 2025, written by Adam Milstein. The start of a new year challenges us to reflect on our journey—where we are, how we arrived here, and the paths we wish to explore moving forward. As I approach my 73rd birthday next month, I feel fortunate to share some wisdom I’ve gained over the years and outline my personal marching orders for 2025. We all seek meaningful, healthy, and fulfilling lives. For me, four guiding...| ADAM MILSTEIN
This article was originally published by the Jerusalem Post on 12/23/24, written by Adam Milstein. As Hanukkah menorah’s glow in Jewish homes around the globe, their light evokes a story that transcends time: the Jewish people’s resilience in the face of adversity. For thousands of years, we have faced challenges—physical, spiritual, existential, and political—and for thousands of years, the Hanukkah candles are lit, reminding us of our people’s strength and determination. In the ...| ADAM MILSTEIN
