Haviv sits down with Prof. Meir Litvak of Tel Aviv University, one of Israel’s foremost scholars of modern Shi’a Islam, Iran, Islamism and Islamist antisemitism, to trace the story of Muslim hatred of Jews from Muhammad’s encounter with the Jews of Medina to the dhimmi system that arose in early Islam, from the medieval mix of tolerance and discrimination to the modern-day shock of European power, Zionism and the 1948 war.

The result of this sweeping survey is neither a comforting myth of Muslim-Jewish harmony nor a simplistic story of eternal persecution. It is a harder, more disturbing picture: a long religious tradition of Jewish inferiority transformed in the modern age -- by European conspiracy theories, Muslim political collapse and the humiliation of defeat by Jews -- into one of the world’s most openly genocidal forms of antisemitism.

And the final question is the hardest one: can Muslim societies find a way out?

This is the first time I've noticed this bug. In a bunch of comments, words are substituted for other words that wouldn't have been the result of autocorrect. Then when I click edit, the word is already fixed (meaning it was never wrong to begin with, probably). When I click save, the comment looks corrected for a few seconds, but then, right in front of my eyes, it changes back. At first I thought it was a case where I couldn't edit the comment because maybe I had blocked the person I was talking to, so perhaps Reddit won't allow me to edit a comment to someone I blocked? But I've found comments where that definitely isn't the case. It's very weird.

Sam Wang is a Princeton-based neuroscientist who has lived 26 years in central New Jersey — and decades fighting to fix our broken political system. He founded the Princeton Gerrymandering Project, which has helped combat rigged maps in states across the country, and served as the expert witness in the lawsuit that struck down New Jersey's "county line" ballot system that locked out new candidates. A former Congressional Science Fellow who advised in both the House and the Senate, Sam knows how Washington works — and how to change it. He's also a leading autism researcher whose work has led to new diagnostic tools helping families get answers faster. Sam and his wife have raised their family here in the 12th District, where he's mentored dozens of students and founded Princeton Indivisible and Princeton For All. He's a husband, a father, and the proud owner of three dogs — and he's running for Congress to bring the same energy he's brought to democracy reform to fighting for a better future for all of central Jersey's people and families.

Sam is running for Congress to rebuild our broken democracy, restore the rule of law, and save science. As the federal government is upended by unconstitutional executive actions, Congress must reassert its authority as the principal branch of government. Citizens have risen up in protest through No Kings and Hands Off movements, and Sam will give voice to the thousands of residents of the 12th District who want to restore integrity to our national government.
