Becket Adams The Hill, Nov. 6, 2023 “… many in our media would play nice with a group composed of rapists and killers who routinely use human shields in conflict to maximize civilian casualties, insisting that we appreciate the “context” of their atrocities and taking their word as fact. As for stateside supporters of Hamas, it is difficult […]

Liel Leibovitz Tablet, Nov. 14, 2023 “They cheer for #MrFAFO not despite the fact that he’s so obviously faking it but precisely because of it. His performances promise liberation from the annoyances of a fact-based reality whose contradictions are inherently troubling.” There he is, a victim of an Israeli air raid, writhing in pain in a […]
Nicole Lampert Unherd, Dec. 2, 2023 “Salman has dedicated much of his life to pushing for the controversial “right of return” of Palestinians to the land which is now Israel. He has called Israelis “ghetto-dwellers in Europe who came to take our land”, described the founding of the state of Israel as “exactly like Nazi Germany occupying […]

Nial Ferguson WSJ, Nov. 29, 2023 “Kissinger’s real contribution was as a strategist and negotiator. Asked in 1976 to assess his own statesmanship, he replied: “I have tried—with what success historians will have to judge—to have an overriding concept.” He combined grand strategy with indefatigable “shuttle diplomacy” and an ability to read his foreign counterparts.” […]
Robert D. Kaplan Unherd, Nov. 30, 2023 “Kissinger continues to be hated because of Vietnam. But as strange as it may seem, Kissinger and Nixon, in withdrawing from Vietnam in the bloody manner that they did, demonstrated real character: they believed that they were serving the national interest and proving their toughness to China and the Soviet […]
Editorial The New York Sun, Nov. 30, 2023 “Kissinger was stung by the disclosure of that tape. The point he wanted to make was that only hours, as we remember it, before that conversation, Nixon and Kissinger had decided to rush arms and matériel to Israel and save the Jewish state (the moment is captured […]

Charlie Summers Times of Israel, Nov. 30, 2023 “As Nixon’s right-hand man, Kissinger often bore the brunt of the president’s antisemitic remarks. The president would publicly embarrass Kissinger by referring to him as his “Jew boy,” including during a meeting with Egyptian foreign minister Ismail Fahmi.” Henry Kissinger, the controversial diplomat responsible for some of the United States’ […]

Victor Davis Hanson American Greatness, Nov. 27, 2023 “For all the boasts about loving death, it was Hamas who cowardly murdered the unarmed, scampered back to the safety of their tunnels, and used their own kindred Gazans to shield them from death—delivered to them by supposed nerds who love life too much.” We know […]
William McGurn WSJ, Nov. 27, 2023 “… If colleges abandon their final cause, which is truth, their formal cause, which is civil discourse, soon breaks down into bullying, canceling, and extortion.” As Israel began exchanging Palestinian prisoners for Israeli moms and children, Harvard was dealing with its own ultimatum. A week ago pro-Palestinian students gave university […]
Barton Swain WSJ, Nov. 24, 2023 “Is it too simplistic to say that political leaders who don’t acknowledge any authority from above are likelier to impose their will by force? If we’re nothing more than globs of cells hurtling through a chaotic universe, why not coerce people into doing what you want them to do?” […]
Gerard Level The Washington Times, Nov. 23, 2023 “Jews are the only group in Western societies who, in spite of recurrent oppression and discrimination, are seemingly deprived of the right to be viewed as victims, even when they very clearly have incurred all of the indignities and suffering that should be more than adequate for being […]

Lauren Dagan Amoss Algemeiner, Nov. 27, 2023 “Until October 11, Japan did not address Hamas actions at all and did not explicitly acknowledge Israel’s right to self-defense. Only in the past two weeks has there been a noticeable shift in this approach: Japan expressed a willingness to convey messages to Iran to prevent escalation […]
