A Brooklyn principal refused to let Holocaust survivor Sami Steigmann speak to students, saying his “messages around Israel and Palestine” weren’t appropriate for a public school.

A Jewish reader wrote to us about Irena Sendler, the Catholic woman who rescued 2,500 Jewish children from the Warsaw Ghetto—then she added a haunting line: “Their lives were saved, but lost to Judaism.” Her words stopped me.

After winning an NFL game in Madrid, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was asked where else he’d like to play overseas.

When Israeli advocate Noa Tishby stepped up to the podium and declared, “Israel is here to stay. The people of Israel live,” she was not speaking as a politician, but as a daughter and granddaughter of pioneers who helped build the Jewish state. An actress and producer turned outspoken defender of Israel, Noa has paid a price for telling the truth in rooms that do not want to hear it.

An Orthodox Israeli director, Joseph Cedar, is releasing a new thriller, “Useful Idiots,” starring Meryl Streep and Sigourney Weaver—with Streep as a jaded Manhattan journalist who follows one record-breaking penthouse sale into a hidden world of power and enablers. It’s meant to be suspense, but it begs a deeper question: In a world of headlines and hashtags, who is shaping what we believe—and are we quietly being used, or slowing down to ask, “Lord, what is true?”

What would the world look like if modern Israel had never existed?
