Reminder that Patriots owner Robert Kraft has turned his stadium into a command station to spy on Americans. He ran anti-antisemitism Super Bowl commercials three years running (2024–2026) through his Blue Square Alliance Against Hate — and each ad drew fierce criticism, paradoxically from within the Jewish community itself,...

“What Everyone is Missing From the Blue Square Campaign Commercial?” When I first watched this commercial I was annoyed. “Oh great, another example of wasted Jewish philanthropy and off-target Jewish activism.” But then I took a breather (shocker for me), and remembered several things: 1) This is Robert Kraft’s money and he can do whatever the hell he wants with it 2) The Foundation to Combat Antisemitism (later named FCAS and now the Blue Square Campaign) has a heart that is in the right place. They helped me pull off an all-day event at Gillette Stadium two years ago to teach Jewish and Israeli-American students how to use social media to combat antisemitism… and everyone loved the event. 3) This is MUCH better than their commercial featuring Louis Farrakhan acolyte Snoop Dogg and Tom Brady talking vaguely about “stopping hate” without ever naming antisemitism or Jewish hate—corporate mush that drew backlash for dodging the point and leaning on celebrity optics over substance. So, I watched the commercial again. And holy shit! I missed something… That Jewish student was ready to throw hands. He was ready for a fight. He wanted the fight. It just wasn’t the right place. Look at that Jewish student! He’s not just ready for the fight; he’s literally walking into it until he gets stopped—striding through the hallway, shoulders squared, chin up, taking the jostles and whispers without flinching or retreating, heading straight toward his locker like he's owning the space despite the bullshit swirling around him. I think we combat Jew Hatred by making Jews strong. By making us undeniable. By instilling in Jews the pride to respond like the badass Jews and Americans that we are. This commercial agrees with that sentiment. This isn’t a weak Jew shying away from a fight. It’s the opposite. And while statistically speaking the student who stops him—and has his back—is from a group that tends to be over represented in engaging in antisemitism, that student (“Bilal”) wasn’t. He was helping. And he didn’t help because the Jewish student asked for it, but because it was the right thing to do. There was no pleading for help from the Jewish student. There was no groveling. And there wasn’t even a sign that the student couldn’t take the hate. Nah. He stood in the pocket, ready for the fight. That’s a message I’m down with. That’s a message I can get behind. American Jews are done with the bullshit and we’re ready for the fight. Allies or not, we’re ready for the fight. Would I rather the Blue Square have a commercial about the Israeli bobsled team and pilot AJ Edelman, OLY wrapping tefillin after a $40k donation from Robert Kraft? Of course!!! But is this message better than last year’s? Does it show an American Jew ready to rock? Yeah. It does. So I get all the critiques, and even agree with them. But don’t sleep on the subliminal message. Sure, unity is great, but if you’re an American Jew—and especially if you’re an American Jewish student—be ready. Be ready to fight. The time is now. Just pick your spots.

Yesterday’s terror attack on Sydney’s Jewish community and on all Australians is a day that will be forever burned in the nation’s soul. This was the darkest day Australia has faced since the Port Arthur Massacre in April 1996. Bondi Beach is a symbol of Australia. These murders are a desecration against us all. I acknowledge the swift and courageous response of New South Wales Police and paramedics, whose immediate action helped secure the scene, protect lives and support those caught up in this horrific attack. I particularly recognise those who stepped into danger to help save lives, disarm the terrorists, and render first aid to the wounded. We have all seen video footage of brave civilians, charging into danger in an effort to save lives. They are heroes. I share the nation’s revulsion and horror as we continue listening to the sorrow and heartbreak in the testimonials we are hearing. Many Australians are feeling a growing sense of bewilderment. There is palpable anger. And I share that anger. Because Antisemitism in Australia has been left to fester. Many of us who have been close to Jewish Australians for the last two years, as I have, heard story after story of hideous antisemitism. We have seen a clear failure of leadership to keep Australians safe, especially our Jewish community. We have a government that has seen antisemitism as a problem to be managed instead of evil which must be eradicated. Everything must change from today in how governments respond. Criminal acts have been perpetrated, repeatedly and very publicly. We have seen public landmarks turned into symbols of antisemitic hate. We have seen campuses occupied and Jewish students ostracised. We have seen the homes of Jewish Australians vandalised. We have seen Jewish childcare centres targeted. We have seen synagogues firebombed – orchestrated by foreign terrorist states. Every single day for the past two years, the lives of Jewish Australians have been made harder because the tide of antisemitism has been rising. The armed guards greeting four-year-olds on the way into kindergarten. The mothers who read hateful and threatening posts online and decided to keep their child home from school. University students having to put up with chants like ‘from the ‘river to the sea’. Let’s be clear. This chant calls for the explicit elimination of the Jewish State. Universities did not deal with this properly. Jewish Australians who told me they were returning to Israel because they felt safer there than here. In February this year, ASIO Director General Mike Burgess warned antisemitism was the biggest threat to loss of life in Australia. The Prime Minister has told Jewish Australians he will do whatever it takes to deal with antisemitism. He must start by committing today to implementing his own Antisemitism Envoy’s report in full.
