A Misleading Picture
Homebound while recovering from surgery, I was able to watch many hours of footage from the Egyptian uprising online. I have seen exactly one overtly anti-Jewish sign, poster or banner from the protests: the one you chose to put on the front page of your February 11 issue.
Your editorial “Egyptian Choices” states: “this isn’t about us.” Why then pander to fear? I am disappointed in my late mother’s favorite newspaper.

We're building on 127 years of independent journalism to help you develop deeper connections to what it means to be Jewish today.
With so much at stake for the Jewish people right now — war, rising antisemitism, a high-stakes U.S. presidential election — American Jews depend on the Forward's perspective, integrity and courage.
