"Unfortunately, the malign forces — unmatched in human history — threaten to consume Jews once more. However, this time, we are winning. The question is, do we have the will to achieve victory?"
When the war begins, and I believe it has, zeroing in the enemy, and there are many, is key. The Muslim Brotherhood has targeted jews and it is them we must destroy. But not with bats and guns. They are too numerous and well placed. We need to go after them legally decimate them financially, regardless of how much oil money they have. Our best weapons are our lawyers and Jews have plenty. Sue them for every antisemitic act however it’s possible. Connect them to the campus takeovers, the shootings, they are behind it all, we just need smart lawyers to convince judges of what they are doing. Bankrupt them and their plans for taking over America as they have in Europe, the UK and the Middle East.
Nope, our best weapon is President Trump's administration, who is giving antisemites at Harvard, Columbia and elsewhere a pounding like has never been seen.
Over $4B in Federal funding lost to Harvard alone, deportations plus no more F1 foreign student visas. Ouch!
Nice to read this, and if every Jew was prepared to fight, with the right tools, the diaspora Jews would encounter far fewer of their numbers as victims, instead, as successful protectors.
Thank you . I have been saying this for years as my father did before me. My Abba and his friends chose baseball bats to confront the antisemites, not on trembling knees. Aside from the lions of Zion in Melbourne, I’m not aware of any other group or person who has called it out forcibly.
The ones I'm referring to were in the IDF Reserve ground forces starting in October 2023. Others have various location duties of security. Others are older and served in various earlier wars with IDF. Many of those different categories just mentioned have their children serving active duty as combat ground forces.
There are plenty. A few months ago Tablet Magazine featured an article recounting the Jewish crime family mobs bashing of American Nazi organizer skulls just prior to WWII in Chicago and NYC.
Yes, but that was then. But where are they now? Over one million Jews in NYC. Where are the baseball wielding Jews facing down the maniacs at Columbia University and other places?
Probably serving in the military or otherwise exercising restraint, knowing they are the ones who would be arrested and prosecuted should skull bashing occur.
The day a Jew shoots back will be the day you are recognized as a power. Pack and carry and TRAIN with law enforcement professionals. Keep your go-pro camera ON. Do it right and you will not be deemed the aggressor. Meet violence with FORCE appropriate to the threat. Lawyers and politicians are appropriate tools against lawyers and politicians, indispensable, but not sufficient. When you are confronted with real physical violence there is no alternative to real physical violence.
Mainstream Jewish organizations like the ADL ($1.2M salary for its CEO Jonathan Greenblatt) are ineffectual and self serving just at the time when they're most needed.
I hope that newer groups like StandWithUs ( https://www.standwithus.com/ ) will be able to take over their mission. Allied with passionate and committed groups like Christians United for Israel ( cufi.org ).
It's something to go to a museum or a concert, look at the names on the walls of the big donors knowing that the venues they sponsored would no longer bring in an Israeli artist.

Bob: Thank you for this outstanding piece! The irony of France's being the builder of Israel's first nuclear facilities in the Negev (1960s) always leaves me with my head shaking right-to-left-over-and-over. Some readers may not be aware that France gave birth to nuclear-state-Israel as payback for Israel allowing France & the UK to use southern Israel as a staging ground for their take over of the Suez Canal in 1956. French politics and French honoring of military commitments are not infrequently divergent. Serendipitously, your wake-up call to the Diaspora this morning overlaps with 08June2025 publication of Mossad-based information confirming Iranian mastery of neutron implosion device detonations. AS OF TODAY, the world is publicly aware that Iran is a de facto nuclear state and The Diaspora is paying full attention! You eloquently brought Menachim Begin's prescient words to all of your readers this morning. When Israel's War Cabinet acts upon PM Begin's words, then IAF & INF assets preparing missile launches & sorties against Iran's hypersonic missile launch bases. FYI Hypersonic missile launch prep time is known to Israel and US CENTCOM. Because time is required to transport Iranian nuclear devices along select Iranian highways associated with hypersonic missile launch sites, there is a sufficiently large window of opportunity for US and Israeli satellites to establish coordinates for all such sites in Iran. SMART weapons rarely miss unless heavy dust particles in the air over the Middle East is in play. This is a long-winded way of saying that the US & all other NATO members (let alone Diaspora Jews) are indeed prepared for Israeli victory. EU states with signed NATO commitments cannot obstruct Israel's mission. US CENTCOM has had assets in place since March 2025 in the event of Iranian nuclear statehood certainty. There are many good options for US CENTCOM to support IAF & INF missions. If Israel is indeed victorious, I would become the First Nation to militarily take down a nascent nuclear adversary. This would be a complex and challenging mission to undertake. Please pray for IAF & INF mission successes prior to Iran launching viable counterattacks against Israel, Persian Gulf States, and Saudi Arabia. Because of US CENTCOM commitments to all three, it is highly likely that Israel will be victorious. <hands in praying position>
I agree with the thesis: we need to fight. I disagree with the baseball bat method.
Sure you’ll bash in a few heads of despicable antisemites and you’ll feel great. Fellow Jews will also be inspired. We are no longer trembling in the dark. You’ll have won the battle
But not the war. The war needs to be fought against the lies and false narratives. We need to champion our ideas, our civilization, our light. That is true Jewish supremacy.
We have survived throughout history through our tenacity and love for life, not through our baseball bats.
I love the calling of the likes of the UK, French and Canadian governments as ‘moral midgets’ .. totally unprincipled, politically myopic and blind to the forces of islamic jihad, from the likes of evil Qatar.
Macron, Starmer and Carney can’t see past the end of their noses .. whilst islamic militant Qatar indulges the west with a 747 for Trump, cuddles and kisses to the British royals, cash for well known iconic businesses, all the while, plotting the demise of western democracy.
Fight as pro-active combatants, striking first against the Nazi enemy before he has the time and ability to destroy us. Israel has a brilliant record of this in Lebanon, and destroyed Hezbollah in the South Lebanon before the terror group could do worse. This is a very good lesson, one which is well studied. So, I repeat: we have monitored and then verified the re-formation of The Nazi Party gathered around Holocaust-denier Irving by elements of MI6 here in London who tried to take over the UK. Their alliance with Jew-haters in The Middle East has also been recorded. Our reports, and monitoring by both Jewish and Non Jewish monitors is with you. Most of Britain remains staunchly AntiNazi, because Hitler planned the mass murder of English men had he crossed the Channel. This is in the historical record. The AntiNazism of the British is to be welcomed. Am Israel Chai.
Although now, in my fifties, I no longer care how far I can hit a baseball or softball, the idea of a baseball bat as a means of self-defense does have merit. A 36 inch wooden Louisville Slugger strikes me as a suitable weapon in case of an emergency.
Absolutely. That must occur concurrently with the idea - Jews must be more Jewish. The specific starting point is to align our stars as it were by "Living With the Times". The Times as in the minimal daily study of the weekly Parsha. And concurrently with fitness and fighting training daily.
Very well said, Mr. Goldberg. Menachim Begin's words are as well suited today as when he said them. Jews must come together and defend each other. Jews (left-wing) in the civil rights era were more aggressive defending black rights than they are today in defending Jewish life. Shame on them. It is time to fight back, with any and all available means, including firearms, while still maintaining Jewish morals and ethics. A brave Jewish soldier is, by nature, a mensch.
It is time to change the platitude of history repeating. We need to change that historical truth. We can change the pattern of history if we sincerely desire and act. We have the Lord Almighty on our side. We can and will win, G-d willing.
With apologies to Dara Horn, if there’s anything people love more than dead Jews, it is defenseless ones.

There are PLENTY. The plenty that I witness weekly via podcasts are fully practicing Jewish individuals/groups/organizations.
Yup thank you. But where are the physical fighters?
