Special to WorldTribune.com Dennis Prager Americans have long been proud of the fact that, unlike European countries, America never went the route of totalitarianism as embodied in communism, fascism and Nazism. This achievement may be coming to an end. In order to understand why, it is first necessary to understand why European countries embraced — […]
Special to WorldTribune.com Dennis Prager What are the two most hated countries in the world? America and Israel. Who hates both America and Israel? The Left (and Islamists). And why is that? Why does the Left (not liberals, the Left) hate America and Israel? In “Why the Jews; The Reason for Antisemitism,” a book I […]
Special to WorldTribune.com Dennis Prager The left-wing charge that America is a racist country is the greatest national libel since the Blood Libel against the Jews. America is, in fact, the least racist multiracial, multiethnic country in world history. Neither the claim that America is a racist society nor the claim that it is the […]
Special to WorldTribune.com Dennis Prager As I wrote nearly three years ago: “Perhaps the second greatest libel — and certainly the most widespread — is that America is a racist country that oppresses its minorities and women.

Special to WorldTribune.com Dennis Prager Virtually every conservative in America knows the title of this column is true. Virtually every leftist knows it, too, but lying for the cause is what the Left does (think “Russian collusion”). And those liberals who have become increasingly indistinguishable from leftists know it’s probably true but won’t say so […]
Special to WorldTribune.com Dennis Prager In a recent “Fireside Chat,” my weekly talk show on the PragerU platform, I commented on society’s increasing fixation on being “safe.” The following is a condensed version of what I said: We have a meme up at PragerU: “‘Until it’s safe’ means ‘never.’” The pursuit of “safe” over virtually […]
Special to WorldTribune.com Dennis Prager Three years ago, I wrote a column explaining left-right differences on 35 different subjects. Any one or two of them would make for a major political/cultural divide. Thirty-five make the divide unbridgeable.
