Brendan O’Neill, Spiked, Jan. 13, 2024 “Let’s be clear: to accuse the Jews of genocide is the gravest calumny. To drag the historical victims of genocidal mania to court in order to bark the accusation of genocide in their faces is, to me, unconscionable. To liken these survivors of the Nazi derangement to the […]

Jerusalem Post, Jan. 13, 2024 “Having witnessed the well-prepared presentation by the South African team one can only wonder what else is in store for Israel in the coming weeks.” South Africa does not excel, to say the least, on fighting corruption or on efficiently managing public institutions, which is perhaps why Israel did not […]
Brooke Goldstein and Gerard Filitti Jerusalem Post, Jan. 12, 2024 “… appeasing Israel’s critics (let alone its enemies) has never worked, and appointing a judicial activist who seems to believe in expanding, rather than limiting, a court’s powers (he killed the Israeli Supreme Court’s standing test and increased the range of matters deemed justiciable) is imprudent, […]
Irwin Cotler National Post, Jan. 10, 2024 “… by launching a baseless proceeding against Israel for the crimes of genocide and incitement to genocide, it provides protective cover to Hamas and its related Iranian terrorist proxies, who themselves are the ones guilty of those crimes.” Genocide is the “crime of crimes,” constituting the most egregious acts […]
Yoav Limor Israel Hayom, Jan. 8, 2024 “Barak’s challenge will not be simple. South Africa has prepared a serious indictment, relying in part on a host of statements by Israeli public figures who called to destroy / demolish / crush / depopulate Gaza.” The decision to send former Chief Justice Aharon Barak to represent […]

Eliza Shapiro and Katherine Rosman NY Times, Jan. 9, 2024 “They did it to expand 770 and make it bigger. They have come to fulfill the rebbe’s wishes.” A decades-old fight about the direction of one of New York’s most prominent Hasidic Jewish groups tipped into chaos this week, when one faction clashed […]
Luke Tress Times of Israel, Jan. 11, 2024 “As the holiest place in the world, we have to expand. The Rebbe, the words of the rabbi, says they need to expand it. The Rebbe is the one in charge. He is Chabad.” On Tuesday, a group of US Jewish men gathered to pray […]
Brendan O’Neill Spiked, Jan. 10, 2024 “It’s a colourful story, for sure. If the Atlantic publishes a longform piece on the doctrinal clashes in this curious community, I’ll probably read it. But for it to trend, to make waves worldwide, is odd to say the least.” So, some religious men in New York City dug […]
Maya Pontone Hyperallergic, Jan. 10, 2024 “… if you don’t know 770 Eastern Parkway, then you’re going to walk by the building or drive by it, and you’ll never see it … But to the Lubavitcher, it’s very exciting to them and it means only one thing.” A historic synagogue in New York […]

Clifford D. May Washington Times, Dec. 26, 2023 “The Obama administration’s attempt at rapprochement notwithstanding, Mr. Putin seized Crimea from Ukraine in 2014 and sent insurgents into Donbas. No meaningful consequences ensued.” The coming of the new year is an appropriate time for retrospection. I’ve been thinking about December 2001. Like many Americans, I was traumatized by […]

Rebeccah L. Heinrichs Hudson Institute, Jan. 2, 2024 “The nuclear posture designed to do this will require more deployed systems than were planned when China wasn’t considered America’s primary challenger.” The most dangerous global security development at the dawn of 2024 is China’s and Russia’s reliance on nuclear weapons to break the U.S.-led order. Russia […]
Jerry Hendrix National Review, Nov. 30, 2023 “We find ourselves today facing a significant probability of global military cataclysm, and we are not ready.” The United States faces an imminent threat to its national security. Two authoritarian great powers, China and Russia, are actively moving to undermine its position as the leader of the free world, […]
