Commentary is America's premier monthly magazine of opinion: General, yet Jewish. Highly variegated, with a unifying perspective.

    Israelis Need to Watch 'The Godfather'

    Trump at the Bodega

    Trump at the Bodega

    Joe Biden is having a good month at the polls, but Donald Trump is finding new and inventive ways to campaign for president despite his humiliating courtroom experience—will it help? And do Israelis want a strong strike against Iran or not? And what is Mike Johnson doing? Give a listen.

    Return of the Weathermen?

    Return of the Weathermen?

    Yesterday's protests in New York, San Francisco, Chicago, and Seattle suggest again that the pro-Hamas Left is moving into a new and more dangerous phase, one in which they are openly chanting "Death to America" and may be readying violent acts of "resistance." The parallels to the 1960s are unmistakable. And things are only going to get more heated as Israel does what it has to in Rafah and against Iran. Give a listen.

    The Iran Attack

    The Iran Attack

    OJ's Nightmarish Legacy

    OJ's Nightmarish Legacy

    The Iranian Threat

    The Iranian Threat

    Iran is said to be preparing or on the verge of a direct strike on Israel, and it's not clear Americans know about it. They will when it happens, and we discuss why they'd do it and what Joe Biden has done to suggest to them it might be worth the cost. Republicans in the House continue to display paralysis. Sonia Sotomayor continues to serve on the Supreme Court despite liberal efforts to get her to quit. And the Japanese prime minister is here! Give a listen.

Podhoretz

is great this week (4/15/24). Love/ Hate is back to LOVE!

enough with the Israel apologists

I used to enjoy listening to this everyday but since 10/11 it seems all they talk about is Israel, who they seem to think is justified for ANYTHING they do in retaliation, and they brand anyone who criticizes Israeli atrocities as anti-semitic and pathetic. very disappointing from a group i always thought was moderate, thoughtful, and rational. unfollowing.

John is a pop-culture savant

OJ podcast was great. Well-synthesized. And, editorialized by all.
