Dan Sullivan WSJ, Dec. 15, 2023 “Would you feel welcome in Harvard’s most famous library? Would you feel rattled, intimidated and harassed by the anti-Israel banner screaming “Stop the Genocide in Gaza”?” I was in Boston last weekend for the Army-Navy game. The day after the game, five days after Harvard President Claudine Gay’s disastrous […]

Eli Steele Newsweek, Dec. 11, 2023 “By checking the “black” box, I was being asked to mask the actual problems and inequities that undermine the efforts of lower-class blacks—all so university administrations could claim the pretense of racial redemption through higher enrollment numbers.” I have known people like Claudine Gay my entire life and they […]
Michael Goodwin NY Post, Dec. 12, 2023 “Beyond Harvard, Gay’s reprieve likely will be turned into a misleading model by other schools facing calls for new leadership. They now have a template for conceding mistakes and denouncing antisemitism, then moving on as if they’ve solved the problem.” So now it’s one president down, no more […]

Dr. Yusri Khizran BESA, Dec. 10, 2023 “Hezbollah engaged in a Lebanese political-national discourse that ostensibly placed its military existence at the heart of the Lebanese national consensus. This was summed up in three words: people, army and resistance.” Hezbollah’s enduring enmity towards Israel reflects the ideological concepts on which it was founded. The […]
TOI Staff Times of Israel, Dec. 9, 2023 “The Americans have not set any deadline. … They understand that they can’t tell the IDF how long it needs to achieve the goals. They share the goals of returning the hostages — a campaign that a date cannot be set for — and of destroying Hamas. […]
Eric Mandel The Hill, Dec. 13, 2023 “There are 10,000 UN soldiers in southern Lebanon. They have not stopped the transfer of even one precision-guided missile to Hezbollah from Iran. They have also allowed Hezbollah complete independence to build a terrorist army.” The U.S. is ramping up pressure on Israel to end the Israel-Hamas war. […]
Khaled Abu Toameh Gatestone, Dec. 11, 2023 “Lebanon is not an arena for resistance [against Israel] or those who are deceived. We reject this announcement. My advice to you [Hamas]: ‘Do not sink into the shifting Lebanese sands, otherwise the loss with be great.'” On December 4, the Iran-backed Palestinian terror group. Hamas announced the establishment […]

Hanan Greenwood Israel Hayom, Dec. 10, 2023 “Our encounters are mainly on the routes and mainly during the day because they’re afraid to come out at night. They’re firing RPGs from the alleyways or operating explosives and escaping. Dozens of missiles have been fired in our direction, but the vehicles are moving and most of […]
Keren Setton/The Media Line Jerusalem Post, Dec. 13, 2023 “The IDF method is to use massive airpower, then to encircle targeted areas, followed by increased incursions into territories as the hold over these territories gets stronger over time.” The clock is ticking on Israel’s military operation against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, as it is unclear […]
Colonel Richard Kemp The Telegraph, Dec. 11, 2023 “Wisely, the Israelis took little heed of American and British military experts that urged restraint, advising the IDF not to invade with armoured divisions but instead rely on special forces raids as they themselves had done in Iraq and Afghanistan. That didn’t work there and it wouldn’t […]
Francis R. Sempa Real Clear Defense, Dec. 11, 2023 “You’ve got to kill people, and when you’ve killed enough they stop fighting.” Writing in Responsible Statecraft, the online journal of the Quincy Institute, David C. Hendrickson argues that Israel’s proclaimed war aim of destroying Hamas should be reconsidered because there is no way to “humanely” destroy Hamas. […]
