Bojan Pancevski, Matthew Dalton, David Luhnow and Karolina Jeznach WSJ, Oct. 30, 2023 “Both reactionary Islam and the radical left in the West are both opposed to Western hegemony and they see the Jewish state in this region as the quintessential expression of Western domination. It is a toxic combination.” A Star of David […]

John Podhoretz NY Post, Oct. 26, 2023 “Why do you think the marchers are meeting near Crown Heights anyway? This is why. Their purpose isn’t to call for a cease-fire or to advocate for the Palestinian people. Their purpose is to make known what October 7 made known: There will be no peace or security […]
Brendan O’Neill Spiked, Oct. 22, 2023 “I’m sure Hizb ut-Tahrir, a cult so extreme it is banned in Germany, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, a cult that referred to Hamas’s invasion of southern Israel as ‘a day of good news,’ was using the word jihad in the peaceful sense. Maybe its call for Muslim armies to commence […]

Abu Yehuda, Oct. 29, 2023 “Possibly civil control can be rested in the Arab clans that are powerful in the various areas of the Gaza Strip; but there will be no alternative to an IDF presence to provide overall security and prevent an extremist takeover. The only other alternative is forced emigration of a large […]
Joe Concha The Messenger, Oct. 29, 2023 “An overwhelming majority of Americans were rightly shocked, horrified, and outraged. But Ocasio-Cortez and Omar instead called for an immediate ceasefire and de-escalation by Israel, while Tlaib called for an end to U.S. funding to Israel, prompting a strong rebuke by the White House.” The Squad” became part of the political […]
Carpe Diem, American Greatness, Oct. 23, 2023 “And I’m glad that Biden, unlike the rest of the media propagandists, acknowledged that Israel was not responsible for firing a rocket at the hospital in Gaza, but notice how he didn’t even bother saying who was responsible. Best not to offend the terrorists.” Apparently the 81 […]

Prof. Frederick Krantz It’s too early to draw definitive conclusions about a highly complicated political and military situation. Still, to be brief, I do not think Israel has caved over dealing with Gaza/Hamas to American pressures, far from it, nor do I believe the US, even under Biden, has brutally tried to force Israel […]

David Memet UnHerd, Oct. 23, 2023 “… there is no more cosy mystery in the antisemitism of the Democratic Party; Representatives are affiliated with the Democratic Socialists and pro-Palestinians, calling for the end of the state of Israel — that is, for the death of the Jews.” I grew up in a tiny […]
Barbara Kay National Post, Oct. 22, 2023 “It is hard to sorrow for those who only sorrow over themselves. It is difficult to pity the pitiless.” From Anne Frank’s iconic “Diary of a Young Girl,” one quotation is especially prized: “It’s a wonder I haven’t abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and […]
Konstantin Kisin The Free Press, Oct. 22, 2023 “The reaction to the attacks—from outwardly pro-Hamas protests to the mealy-mouthed statements of college presidents, celebrities, and CEOs—has exploded the comforting stories many on the center-left have told themselves about progressive identity politics.” When Hamas terrorists crossed over the border with Israel and murdered 1,400 innocent people, they […]
Jacob Howland UnHerd, Oct. 16, 2023 “Theologians have long understood Evil as an absence or privation: complete separation from God. But while mere absence is inert, Evil is as potent and contagious as certain deadly viruses” After the Holocaust, academics and others tried to make sense of the murder of six million Jews. Historians […]

Aleks Phillips Newsweek, Oct. 23, 2023 “Expressing support for Hamas is different from being actively involved in the organization’s international network, which according to the GWU study, has largely been blocked in the U.S., but nevertheless continues in a diminished form.” Hamas backers “have long operated in the United States” and they “are […]
