The myth Weiss wants to build around what they're doing speaks to some people who are not committed enemies of liberalism. I was just venting frustration, but I think that the fact that a government that clamps down on wrongthink in education leaves UA alone should speak to those folks.

The son of a peace activist brutally killed on Oct. 7 is determined to make sure that her dream for Israel does not die with her.
