Martin Gurri Discourse Magazine, Dec. 12, 2023 “The Obama doctrines turned out to be an exercise in self-delusion.” The structures that bind the nations of the world together are breaking down before our eyes. Two savage wars are raging in volatile regions, either of which might at any moment blow up to involve additional belligerents […]

Giorgio Cafiero The New Arab, Dec. 14, 2023 “The war in Gaza is reviving the relevance of the resistance front in the Arab world. Not only the Syrian opposition, but the Arab world more generally has scoffed at the impotence of the resistance front in recent years. Today, Arabs are again rooting for resistance. The […]
Kasra Aarabi and Jason M. Brodsky Foreign Policy, Nov. 10, 2023 “This call for a Shiite jihad, which was ignored in the West, would enable the regime in Iran to introduce an ideological element to the conflict, centered on extreme antisemitism and sectarianism, to draw on the regime’s ideological influence across the region.” Since […]
Aron Lund The New Humanitarian, Dec. 7, 2023 “… the most significant Gaza-related escalation in Syria involves neither Israel nor Hamas, but Iraq. Since 17 October, a new group that calls itself “the Islamic Resistance in Iraq” has fired at US bases in eastern Syria dozens of times. The group, which appears to be a front for several Iran-backed […]
Omar Albam and Cathrin Schaer DW, Oct. 31, 2023 “The head of the UN’s Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Syria, Paulo Pinheiro, confirmed this last week, telling the UN General Assembly that the country was “witnessing the largest escalation of hostilities in Syria in four years.” Syrian activists also said Russia and Syria had again been using weapons […]

Peter Wood and David Randall National Association of Scholars, Dec. 11, 2023 “… since the Hamas attack on southern Israel on October 7, President Gay has exhibited a moral obtuseness that marries intolerance for all dissent from the diversity, equity, and inclusion regime, to insensitivity to Jews faced with anti-Jewish harassment.” The National Association of […]
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 […]
Isabel Vincent NY Post, Dec. 12, 2023 “And two days later, on Oct. 27, The Post was sent a 15-page letter by Thomas Clare, a high-powered Virginia-based attorney with the firm Clare-Locke who identified himself as defamation counsel for Harvard University and Gay. The letter contained comments from academics whose work Gay was alleged to […]

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. […]
