Ron Ben Yishai Ynet News, Dec. 5, 2024 “Israel is concerned about these militias and the Hezbollah forces entering Syria, as they could signify the beginning of a long-term Iranian military presence in the country through its proxies.” The rapid southward advance of Sunni jihadist rebels and the capture of the city of Hama appear […]
Kasra Aarabi and Saeid Golkar The Telegraph, Dec. 5, 2024 “Khamenei and the IRGC are fully aware that losing Assad would land a decisive blow to their regime’s regional ambitions and eternal quest to eradicate Israel. Tehran spent a significant amount of money and blood to preserve Assad the last time he was on the brink […]
Carrie Keller-Lynn WSJ, Dec. 5, 2024 “… that rebel group’s blend of nationalism and Islamism, which echoes the ideology of Afghanistan’s Taliban and Palestinian Hamas, is regarded by Israel as a dangerous threat, particularly were it to come to power in neighboring Syria.” The surprising advance by opposition forces in Syria’s civil war poses a conundrum for […]
Kasra Aarabi and Saeid Golkar Middle East Forum, Dec. 4, 2024 “The ballistic missiles Iran’s regime has been firing are called Khaybar Destroyers—in other words, “Jew destroyers.”” With the murder of Rabbi Zvi Kogan, an Israeli rabbi who helped provide kosher food in the United Arab Emirates, now confirmed as terrorism, the Iranian regime’s involvement is […]

Isabelle Taft NY Times, Nov. 25, 2024 “Some of the tactics protesters used last semester have been met with stringent responses this school year.” Colleges and universities have tightened rules around protests, locked campus gates and handed down stricter punishments after the disruptions of pro-Palestinian demonstrations and encampments last spring. The efforts seem to be […]
Zahava Feldstein Moment, Nov. 25, 2024 “I learned that the European white supremacy from which colonialism, racism and Nazism arose had solidified its antisemitic core hundreds of years prior. A hatred of Jews was built into dominant European ideas about the world and structures of power well before either 1492 or 1619.” “Zionists are the […]
Michael Oren Clarity with Michael Oren, Nov. 19, 2024 “Unwittingly, perhaps, the interviewer drew on timeless tropes and transformed them into unassailable truths.

Yonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, Nov. 28, 2024 “2024 has been a stark failure in restoring security and order compared with almost every other year in the past decade.” Closing in on five months into his role as commander of IDF Central Command, with responsibility for the West Bank, is the area more or less […]
Yonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, Nov. 27, 2024 “This will continue to be a focus for Iran because it is an indirect way to confront Israel, and Iran will have more plausible deniability than on other fronts because the terror actors will be Palestinian terror groups with whom there is no ceasefire anyway.” No one […]
Keren Setton The Medialine, Dec. 12, 2024 “The threat is limited only due to Israel’s ability to thwart and respond to such attacks.” Israel’s conflict with Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon has often diverted attention from another simmering front in the West Bank.
