Over 250,000 American servicemen died fighting Nazi Germany, yet in 2025, we have seen a surge in praise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazis right here in America.

Just as vocally as we call it out on the antisemitism widespread now on the political left, we must also call it out on the right.

Tragedy and triumph intermingle constantly in Jewish history, and while we may be looking at the beginning of the end of the war against Hamas, the fires of Jew hatred sparked since October 7th, 2023, will take longer to douse.
