The rise of anti-Semitism and calls for demonstrations by American and European university students highlights an alarming trend. This trend can be attributed to an alliance between two opposing ideologies: the extreme Marxist Communist Left and extremist political Islam. Both call for the overthrow of capitalism, albeit for different reasons. On one hand, the extreme Marxist Communist Left aims to dismantle capitalism, promoting an ideology that runs counter to the values of a free market economy. On the other hand, extremist political Islam advocates for the application of Islamic law and, similarly, seeks to overthrow capitalism, disregarding its many achievements. Capitalism has contributed to the advancement of democracy, the victory in WW1 and WW2, the formation of the United Nations and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the prioritization of individualism, and the triumph over communism in the Cold War. These significant accomplishments underscore the importance of preserving the values of capitalism, which has served as a catalyst for progress and stability in the modern world.

From the river to the sea…Palestine will never be. There are times when the hard won lessons of the past have to be relearned at great cost. “The preservation of the Jews is really one of the most single and illustrious acts of divine Providence… and what but a supernatural power could have preserved them in such a manner as none other nation upon earth hath been preserved. Nor is the providence of God less remarkable in the destruction of their enemies, than in their preservation… We see that the great empires, which in their turn subdued and oppressed the people of God, are all come to ruin… And if such hath been the fatal end of the enemies and oppressors of the Jews, let it serve as a warning to all those, who at any time or upon any occasion are for raising a clamor and persecution against them.” Thomas Newton, Bishop of Bristol (1704-1782) From the river to the sea…Israel will always be.
