Alex Winston Jerusalem Post, Feb. 24, 2024 “What will happen in Gaza, at the end of the day, will depend on if Hamas is destroyed and who is in control afterward.

Raphael Uzan Dateline: Middle East, Spring 2022 “I will always cherish the opportunity I had to work with Prof. Krantz. At Concordia University, the student-led newspaper would not publish our articles if they weren’t radical or anti-Israel. CIJR was a place where we were able to write!” recalls Mr. Neuer. He also edited and contributed […]
Ari Blaff National Post, Feb. 20, 2024 “Palestinian “society is unified around one thing only, which is their common desire to annihilate Israel, as we saw on Oct. 7,” Caroline Glick, an Israeli-American journalist who ran for Knesset in 2019, told the Post from Washington D.C. “This is the nature of the organization.” Hillel Neuer, […]
JP staff Jerusalem Post, Feb. 24, 2024 “There’s this impression that it’s the decision of Socrates Aristotle or Plato, when in fact those sitting around the table are historically Gaddafi, Castro, and the house of sod sitting around the Human Rights Council,” Neuer commented on how the world views the decisions made by the UN.” […]

The Jewish Chronicle, Feb. 16, 2024 “I found that people are not always who they say they are when we apply genetic criteria to them. But in the end, the identity that people claim for themselves is indeed who they are. If genetics helps someone to make or change an identity, so much the easier,” […]
Ariel David Haaretz, Oct. 9, 2023 “… the genetic data from Kiryat Yearim offers a first glimpse of how directly sampling remains from the First Temple period can shed light on the history of the ancient Hebrews, Israelite or Judahite.” For the first time, ancient DNA has been recovered from the bodies of ancient […]
Andrew Curry Science, Nov. 30, 2022 “Together with a smaller scale study published in September that looked at DNA from six individuals from the Middle Ages unearthed in Norwich, England, the Erfurt analysis offers clues to where the Ashkenazim came from centuries earlier, and what happened along the way.” On a Sabbath Saturday in March 1349, […]

Melanie Phillips Substack, Feb. 16, 2024 “The government’s concern is genuine. But while it wrings its hands, it is staring in horror at a crisis of anti-Jewish hatred that’s now out of control.” The war in Gaza is prying open a potentially game-changing fissure in British politics that has wider implications for the western world. […]
Romy Leibler/The Media Line Jerusalem Post, Feb. 22, 2024 “The most recent outrage occurred when 600 members of a Jewish WhatsApp support group were doxxed; meaning their personal details—social media profiles, addresses, pictures, and employment details—were disseminated. This led to many being harassed and threatened and some even lost their jobs.” Australia is a country […]
Victor Davis Hanson Real Clear Politics, Feb. 16, 2024 “… no one in the West asks the Ukrainians to warn surrounding civilian populations in occupied Ukraine or inside Russia to keep clear of their intended targets.
