The Conversation, Nov. 1, 2023 “… there appears to be growing popular discontent in Arab countries over the perceived weak stance of their governments toward Israel. But due to the authoritarian nature of many of these regimes, public opinion has little influence on policy.” Yemen’s Houthi movement launched missiles and drones at Israel on Oct. 31, 2023 […]

Richard Kemp Telegraph, Nov. 20, 2023 “Many people don’t want to believe the Israelis; it seems they would rather believe Hamas.” Hamas uses hospitals and other protected places like schools and mosques for terrorist purposes. Since 2006, when the terror group took over the Gaza Strip, we have seen report after report showing just that. […]
Daniel Henninger WSJ, Nov. 15, 2023 “Hamas knew that the humanitarian-crisis narrative after the IDF chased them into Gaza’s teeming neighborhoods would isolate Israel politically. In that crude sense, the day of slaughter was a success. But even more cynical than their naive Western counterparts, Hamas always knew their isolate-Israel narrative had no practical solution. […]
Brendan O’Neill Spiked, Nov. 20, 2023 “They’re not only dismissing the discoveries of the past few days but also a truth that’s been known for years: that Hamas, unquestionably, has turned al-Shifa into a hellhole base for its sinister operations.” We need to talk about the pathological distrust of Israel. About the speed and relish with which […]
Jennifer Rubin Washington Post, Nov. 20, 2023 “After the evidence was presented, did the media go back to the sources that misled them about terrorist activity? I have yet to see that. Cable and network news shows that featured critics claiming this was purely a hospital have not invited those guests back to explain their misstatements.” […]

Giulio Meotti Israel National News, Nov. 7, 2023 “The question is whether Western civilization understands that this is a turning point and really wants to be saved, since its weak and nihilistic leaders seem to have concluded that it is inherently evil and not worth fighting for.” What is this strange evil that afflicts […]
Jesse Tisch Jewish Review of Books, Nov. 17, 2023 “It was once said that the Nazis made murder feasible. Now, it seemed, Jew-hatred was feasible.” “When we say never again, we mean it,” said Steven Rosen. He had arrived, via overnight bus, in Washington DC, and was holding a small, stark poster: “Free Gaza From Hamas.” “Two […]
Jacob Howland UnHerd, Nov. 20, 2023 “Hamas’s strategy is to maximise civilian deaths in order to stimulate worldwide opprobrium of Israel, and, if possible, open up more military fronts of Iranian proxies in Lebanon and Syria. As Harris says, Hamas is “eager to martyr all Palestinians for the pleasure of killing Jews”.” We live in […]
Tom Slater Spiked, Nov. 21, 2023 “Here we see a more explicit version of the anti-Semitism which now haunts the fringes of Western left politics, where a conspiratorial conception of capitalism, combined with a monomaniacal hatred of Israel, has led to the rehabilitation of age-old anti-Semitic tropes about Jews manipulating world affairs to their benefit.” […]

Amaney A. Jamal and Michael Robbins Foreign Affairs, Oct. 25, 2023 “Overall, 73 percent of Gazans favored a peaceful settlement to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.” Since Hamas’ attacks on October 7 left more than 1,400 Israelis dead in a single day, Israel’s response has exacted a heavy toll on the population of Gaza. According to the Palestinian Ministry […]
Caroline B. Glick JNS, Nov. 19, 2023 “Led by the Biden administration, Western governments have uniformly insisted that Hamas does not represent the Palestinians. Most Palestinians, including those in Gaza, simply want to make peace with Israel that includes a Palestinian state, they say.” For more than a generation, the Israeli left and Western leaders […]

Mark Mellman The Hill, Oct. 25, 2023 “Given a choice among three options for “ending the occupation and building an independent state,” 21 percent prefer “negotiations,” 22 percent “peaceful popular resistance” and 52 percent select “armed conflict.” It’s frankly not the central issue, but debate has swirled around whether Gazans, and Palestinians more […]
