    Former pro-Palestinian activist from Stanford explains why she left the movement

    In the interview, Taryn Thomas said she initially joined pro-Palestinian activism with good intentions, driven by limited knowledge of international politics and strong emotional reactions to images from Gaza.

    'Terrible explosion of antisemitism in Australia since Oct. 7,' Scott Morrison says
    Feb 1 2026
    Former Australian prime minister Scott Morrison said Australia faced “a great danger” of moving in the UK’s direction on radical Islam and social cohesion, arguing that the surge in antisemitism since the October 7 massacre exposed long-running failures that Australian leaders, institutions, and communities avoided confronting.

    Morrison spoke on the sidelines of the Generation Truth antisemitism conference in Jerusalem, after appearing on the event’s program. He described Australia as a country that “left the door open” to an antisemitic wave that erupted after October 7 and kept building.

  • Rahel Bayar: Warning signs of child sexual abuse

    Rahel Bayar: Warning signs of child sexual abuse
    Jan 12 2026
    Rahel Bayar, a former sex crimes and child abuse prosecutor from the Bronx District Attorney’s Office, has spent years handling some of the most severe cases involving crimes against children. Today, she works on the prevention side, advising schools, camps, religious institutions, sports organizations, and nonprofits on how to create environments that reduce the risk of abuse and harassment.

    Bayar, who now runs the New York-based Bayar Group consultancy, said two types of cases stayed with her most from her time as a prosecutor. The first involved children whose futures she still wonders about, after their cases ended in court. The second involved cases that could not be prosecuted at all, often because young victims were too traumatized to testify or lacked corroborating evidence.
