A lot of the world's problems might be averted if our various dictators and demagogues (and their followers) exhibited a bit more self-doubt.

Collective criticism has been one of the more virtuous habits of the Jewish nation throughout history: it is, indeed, perhaps the true "gift of the Jews" that was bequeathed both to Christianity and to the Enlightenment.

As with so many Jewish cultural traits, it has been the curious accomplishment of Zionism to turn this historical virtue into a slur.
