Yonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, Nov. 27, 2024 “This will continue to be a focus for Iran because it is an indirect way to confront Israel, and Iran will have more plausible deniability than on other fronts because the terror actors will be Palestinian terror groups with whom there is no ceasefire anyway.” No one […]
Keren Setton The Medialine, Dec. 12, 2024 “The threat is limited only due to Israel’s ability to thwart and respond to such attacks.” Israel’s conflict with Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon has often diverted attention from another simmering front in the West Bank.
