Myth and Reality of Israel’s Success

Originally published at The Wall Street Journal

Allysia Finley of the Wall Street Journal does us all a favor in her column, “Our enemies are the CEO’s…Our comrades are in Gaza,” describing the labor Union SEIU units that are seeking to portray Israel’s vital and pathfinding economy as the product of capitalism and colonialism. They get the historical facts wrong, she writes, quoting at length from George Gilder. The article is behind a paywall, but our Discovery founding senior fellow’s main ideas are easily accessed in the article we posted here recently and expatiated in The Israel Test. That book is as pertinent as ever.
