+972’s Person of the Year: The women standing up to sexual harassment
The women who spoke out in 2016 executed an unplanned pincer move. As accusations snowballed, women inspired one another to speak up. First and foremost, what 2016 should mean for Israel’s social institutions is that there are limits on power. Whether or not men acknowledge what they did as wrong, title or talent must not protect them.

Ari Shavit’s non-apology
Haaretz columnist Ari Shavit apologizes for sexually assaulting an American journalist. Well, kind of. Eight days after American journalist Danielle Berrin published allegations of sexual assault against an Israeli journalist who she refused to name, Haaretz columnist and author Ari Shavit identified himself on Thursday and issued an apology “from the bottom of his heart…

Calling the US president “Hussein”
I noticed that whenever an Israeli pundit wants to show that there is something shady or untrustworthy about the White House’s policy, he calls the president by his full name. This one is from Ari Shavit, a top columnist for Haaretz (my bold): Weak leadership and a lack of moral clarity continue to characterize Obama.…

Haaretz’s Ari Shavit: The last colonialist
One of Israel’s prominent pundits subscribes to conspiracy theories, and has strange views of the Arab world. Every time I make the mistake and read yet another article by Ari Shavit – the great bloviator of Israeli pundits – I later wonder why I did this to myself again. For the past few months I…
