A Bay Area man who allegedly talked online about wanting to emulate the Poway synagogue shooter “except with a Nazi uniform on” is in county jail and facing three felony charges, after an investigation by the FBI and Concord police. Concord resident Ross Anthony Farca, 23, was charged this week with making criminal threats, as well as manufacturing and possessing an assault weapon. The charges stem from comments Farca allegedly posted to his account on Steam, a popular video game platform. Farca’s screen name was “Adolf Hitler (((6 Million))),” a reference to the number of Jewish people killed during the...

And so I repeat my challenges to Stephen Walt and John Mearsheimer. I challenge them to tell us which arguments are new and have not previously been made on hate sites and in anti-Israel screeds. What new evidence has been gathered? Why are there so many factual errors, all cutting against Israel? Why didn’t they present important counterfacts or address any counterarguments? Walt and Mearsheimer repeatedly claim that they have written their paper, at least in part, in order to stimulate dialogue concerning the influence of the Lobby. They claim that it is the pro-Israel side that seeks to suppress...

PARIS, March 6 — Three attacks against Jews over the weekend have added to anxiety that anti-Semitism is growing among a new generation of French citizens in the country's immigrant-heavy, working-class neighborhoods. The police said two young men, 17 and 18, were attacked late Friday by black and Arab youths in the northern Paris suburb of Sarcelles, home to a large number of Jewish families. The attackers broke the nose of one victim, a rabbi's son, and stole the cellphone of the other. On Saturday, a 28-year-old Jewish man was beaten in the same suburb by youths who made anti-Semitic...

Certain aspects of this past are still all but misunderstood, most important the critical question: What was the nature of Nazism? It was not just another fascist or totalitarian movement. The Nazis' destructiveness was not like that of other dictatorial or murderous regimes. True, for Hitler and his followers, Jews were an enemy before all others, the principal source of evil in the world. But the Nazis' destructiveness was of global scope. They sought to lay waste to Western civilization itself — Christianity included. Much of Europe and most of the rest of the world were to become a German-dominated...

An Old Hatred's New DayDoes a wave of anti-Jewish attacks around the world mean antisemitism is on the rise? A specter is haunting the world, but its name is not communism. Its name is antisemitism. A hardy perennial among the world's ideologies, antisemitism did not merely survive the century that relegated fascism and communism to the dustbin of failed "isms." Today, many people fear, the vilification of Jews is taking on new force, fueled and often rationalized by perceptions of Israel's role in the worsening conflict between the 54-year-old nation and Palestinian militants bent on destroying it. It also...
