April 4, 2024 Hrag Vartanian Editor and CEO Hyperallergic Dear Mr. Vartanian: We were horrified and outraged by your cover story, “Israel Flattens Neighboring Pavilions at Venice Biennale,” (April 1). While labeled in fine print as an “April Fools” satire on your website, the piece has been flagged to us by many readers who found the article deeply insensitive and offensive. We agree with those readers – satire label notwithstanding, the article is little more…

Harris Global Editor in Chief Politico Brad Dayspring Executive Vice President, Global Communications and Brand Dear Mr. Döpfner, Mr. Harris and Mr. Dayspring: We were deeply concerned by Politico’s decision to publish a highly offensive political cartoon by Matt Wuerker, depicting a “punch card” suggesting that Israel and Jews are using “centuries of pogroms, antisemitism and the Holocaust”…
To the Editor:
The attempt by Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow to conflate the Palestinian struggle with that of the civil rights movement in the U.S. is disingenuous and offensive. Let’s be clear: The Israeli-Palestinian crisis is complicated and there are few historic parallels to what’s happening in Israel and Gaza in the aftermath of the horrific Hamas massacre on Oct. 7. Equally unique and without parallels is the Black struggle for civil rights in America. From the…

Editor The Nation
Dear Don,
A few years ago, we were in touch concerning your decision to engage Mohammed El-Kurd as the Palestine correspondent for The Nation. I raised a series of concerns based on his public record of hateful rhetoric. At the time, you made the case that most of his offensive tweets and remarks, which we had shared with you in a fact sheet, were made prior to his onboarding at the Nation. You also noted that, while some of his remarks &ldquo…

To the Editor:
Re “The Tale of Two Invasions: What the Last Attack on Jenin Tells Us About Israel Now,” (July 10).
Tareq Baconi repeats the usual distortions and conspiracy theories about Israel in a clear attempt to discredit Israel among international circles. We are accustomed to seeing these spurious accusations from Palestinian and pro-Palestinian propagandists: Israel is an apartheid state. Israel rejects a two…
Re: “The ADL is wrong to attack the NYT’s brave investigative reporting on Hasidic yeshivas” by Ruth Messinger
To the editor:
While we greatly respect and value constructive feedback from Ruth Messinger on issues affecting the Jewish community, we were surprised by her suggestion that the ADL went too far in asking The New York Times to carefully consider the potential for its series of investigative articles on the Hasidic community’s education system to…

To the Editor:
The Times’ piece on Linda Sarsour and the efforts of Russian troll farms to disrupt the Women’s March in 2017 raises important points about disinformation campaigns and their harm, and the malicious intent of the Russian government (“How Russian trolls Helped Keep the Women’s March Out of Lock Step,” Sept. 18).
This, however, in no way should obfuscate or distract from the antisemitic statements and actions by Ms. Sarsour and other founding…
The following letter was submitted to the Washington Post in response to "Beware the data on American right-wing violence" (May 23) To the Editor:
In “Beware the data on American right-wing violence,” Megan McArdle admits that far right violence is a problem, but insinuates it isn’t necessarily a bigger problem than other kinds of ideological violence. She offers no evidence but tries to make her case by second-guessing ADL’s annual reports on extremist-connected…
