Nurenberger's 'The Scared and the Doomed,' " "During our people's darkest hour, as Hitler's war machine kicked into high gear, much of the Diaspora establishment eschewed collective action to save European Jewry.

Additional quotes by Brooke Goldstein

the price of anti-Semitism in the U.S. is plummeting. And it's only going to get cheaper if American Jews avoid demanding respect and asserting their Jewish Zionist pride. It's time for the Jewish community as a whole to reject the anti-Semitic regressive left, not empower it,

Dollars are being spent educating Jewish students how to defend themselves, handing out pamphlets and leaflets for them to memorize, as though it's the job of a Jewish student to defend Israel. The change you can make with one lawsuit or even one legal letter is enormous," she said. "Not only can you ensure that the rights of your clients are respected and protected, and that similar unlawful behavior is deterred, but you go from defense to offense. And when one minority community enforces the law, all minority communities benefit.
