Melanie Phillips:

War against Israel targets the British Museum

Historical truths backed up by ancient artifacts are now pitted against a lethal echo chamber. Opinion.

Melanie Philliips:

A dangerous dividing line

Diaspora Jews cannot properly be defended if they do not or fail to comprehend the monstrosity of the scapegoating and demonization of Israel. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The anti-Jewish fever dream of ‘The New York Times’

We’re living through a throwback to murderous beliefs from before the age of reason. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The anti-Zionist contagion

Condemning Jew-hatred while simultaneously inciting it through incendiary distortions is the mind-twisting stock in trade of the anti-Israel left. Diaspora Jewish leaders should get up off their knees and start fighting it. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The Palestinian Arab laundromat

Shockingly, the West has framed antisemitism and anti-Zionism as conscience itself. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The dawn of a new world order

Israel is very concerned that it may be losing America. America should be no less concerned that it’s losing Israel. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

An unholy silence

The pope’s genuflection to Islam spells disaster for Western civilization. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The West’s fifth column

It’s been chilling to witness a media and political class-mainly on the left, but also on the right-from the start, willing America and Israel to lose this war in which Iran used proxy armies to impose its murderous brand of Islam throughout the world. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

Finish the job, Mr. President!

If the Iranian regime isn’t totally defanged but survives to recover and rearm, it will not only continue to menace the region. Such an outcome will also advertise that the leader of the free world is a paper tiger. Opinion.

Wimps and warriors

The war with Iran is clarifying who is for civilization against barbarism-and who is not. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The ethnostate illusion

Jews should be aware of the cry of pain behind a resurrected antisemitic libel. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

An alliance of light against darkness

The war against Iran may defeat the axis of evil-and put America and Israel at the head of a new world order. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The crumbling wall of Hamas propaganda

It seems, though, that nothing can be allowed to challenge the narrative of heartless Israelis and wretched Palestinian Arabs. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

Fight! Fight! Fight!

Jewish victimization should not be dismissed as unbeatable. It must be fought harder and better. Op-ed.

Antisemitism: Melanie Phillips

Bret Stephens iis wrong: Jews can’t just turn inward and ignore antisemitism

We have a moral obligation to fight for our survival. We should be saying that Zionism is an inseparable part of Judaism, and so antizionism is an attempt to destroy not just Israel but Judaism itself

Melanie Philliips

The deepening madness against the Jews

Jew-haters think their time has come. The proper response to this war against the Jewsh people is not to deflect it, but to fight it better. Opinion

Melanie Phillips:

The West’s pragmatic fallacy

Qatar represents the Jeffrey Epstein of world politics. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The emergence of Holocaust erasure

The world is missing the key point-that it was a uniquely monstrous crime aimed specifically at the extermination of the Jewish people. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

A Caesar in the White House

The old world order is dead because Western universalists destroyed it. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The high stakes in Iran

Ending the Islamic regime in Tehran would help reset the West’s moral compass. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

How international law has been weaponized against Israel

The rules-based global order has expired in disgrace. Opinion.

A shield for antisemites:

“Judaism Without Zionism"

Don’t be misled: it’s time for us to all put our heads above the parapet and be vocally proud of the world’s only Jewish state. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The downplaying of momentous events in Iran

The terrible fact is that conscience in the West has become harnessed to absolute evil. There have been no demonstrations in Western streets chanting “Free, free Iran!” or “Death, death to the IRGC!” Opinion.

American conservatism and ‘the Jewish Question’

The silence of mainstream conservatives over the antisemitism in their midst is lethal for the Republicans and America. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The global intifada

The time for platitudes is over. What’s needed is zero tolerance of Islamic extremism and anti-Zionism. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The humanitarian front against Israel

Mass murder has been branded as conscience to mess with people’s minds. Regarding UNRWA, a U.S. State Department official called it a “corrupt organization with a proven track record of aiding and abetting terrorists.” Not so the UK. Opinion.

The canonization of Marwan Barghouti

For “progressives,” including celebrities across the board, the Palestinian cause is their badge of conscience. Opinion.

The Islamists’ Trojan horse

The twin causes of Arab Palestinianism and human rights have destroyed the West’s moral compass. Opinion.

The muddled morass of ‘settler violence’

Israel has allowed its enemies to defame victims of attack as perpetrators. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The mainstreaming of Jew-hatred

Fragmentation threatens to empower extremes on both the left and right of the political spectrum. Opinion.

The Islamist capture of New York

America must wake up. This is about more than one upstart revolutionary. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

New York holds its breath

Appallingly, progressive Jews are supporting an unhinged Jew-hater because they define this stance as conscience. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

Galloping Islamization in Britain and America

Alarmingly, what U.S. President Donald Trump is helping Israel fight in the Middle East is rampant in his own backyard. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The war is far from over - Israel is only the beginning

The Oct. 7 attack fired a starting gun for what the Islamists believed was the final push to destroy not only Israel but the West itself. Opinion.

J'accuse

J'accuse: Britain's political and cultural establishment has blood on its hands today

This situation just isn’t normal. This hysteria which has infected so many people who are apparently quite normal, decent people. This hysteria about Israel based on absolute lies and incitement isn’t normal. It’s a sick pathology to which Starmer and his Labour government have been totally silent. Opinion.

The fantasy state of ‘Palestine’

It’s time for the United States and the Jewish world to start holding their supposed champions’ feet to the fire. Recognition of "Palestine" constitutes the British and French governments' rejection of civilization for barbarism. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

Open season against the Jews

The West’s attack on Israel can only be explained by its assault on its own core values and identity.

Melanie Phillips:

An alternative universe

Hamas’s war against civilization pivots on its war against the Western and Israeli mind. Hamas and its Iranian patron have understood that the West no longer has the intellectual wherewithal to recognize the lies in the anti-Israel psyop warfare. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips

Australia: One eye and four blindfolds

Australia’s sudden realism concerning a malign Iran cannot repair the harm it is doing to Israel and the West. Opinion.

Melanie Phillips:

The Madonna of Gaza

The murderous lies about Israel’s behavior tap into the ancient and enduring Christian problem with the Jews. Opinion.
