The government may prohibit even nonviolent “material support” for terrorist organizations, including legal support and other advice, without violating the First Amendment.

Richard Goldberg
Keep Congregations Safe
Houses of worship can take several steps to harden their facilities against attack—but ultimately, security cannot be left solely to the professionals.
David M. Pollock
Let Jews Carry Guns
New York and other states have tried to prevent gun possession by religious observers, but there is both a physical and psychological demand for self-sufficient personal security.
Max Raskin
Let Officers Control Unruly Protests
City leaders should work to restore authority and flexibility to law enforcement.
Ray Kelly and Hannah E. Meyers
Confront Anti-Westernism
Resurgent anti-Semitism isn’t just an issue for the Jewish community—it’s a warning for all who value the ideals upon which America was built.
