Dario Sabaghi The New Arab, Nov. 6, 2023 “… there is no point for Hezbollah in anticipating and declaring war on Israel when the Palestinian groups are still very prepared for the Israeli invasion. The point is to wait for the result of the Israeli attack and how the Palestinians are going to behave.” […]

Michael R. Gordon and Vivian Salama WSJ, Nov. 2, 2023 “The conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East have clear links. Since we cut off Russia’s traditional means of supplying its military, it’s turned more and more to Iran for assistance. In return, Moscow has supplied Iran with increasingly advanced military technology, which poses a threat […]

Jacob Olidort JINSA, Nov. 3, 2023 “…the language about a broader war being “a possibility” most certainly suggests Hezbollah and the Iranian regime, together with Hamas leadership (especially those based in Lebanon will actively coordinate in the coming days to determine the manner of further escalation short of fully opening a northern front (with the latter […]
Hanin Ghaddar Washington Institute, Nov. 3, 2023 “Nasrallah essentially declared that he will not be involved in the battle to “free Palestine,” a goal that lies at the core of his resistance narrative.” As expected, Hezbollah secretary-general leader Hassan Nasrallah did not declare war against Israel today—rather, his first public speech on the Gaza conflict served […]

________________________________________________________ Natan Sharansky Tablet, Oct. 31, 2023 “The struggle for campuses is a struggle for America and its values—for an America that is liberal, that supports free speech and human rights, and that protects all of its citizens, regardless of race or creed, from vicious, lawless assault.” Twenty years ago, upon returning to Israel from […]

Andrew Marantz The New Yorker, Nov. 2, 2023 “J Street, a center-left lobbying group that describes itself as “pro-Israel, pro-peace,” was joining with groups to its right, like AIPAC to push representatives to co-sponsor the resolution.” Early this past month, Adam Ramer started a new job. He was just four years out of college, and this […]
Ruy Teixeira The Liberal Patriot, Nov. 2, 2023 “Far from speaking for the younger generations, it would appear the intersectional left is, as usual, speaking for itself.” Large segments of the progressive left disgraced themselves by indulging in demonstrations and statements that, directly or indirectly, excused Hamas’s terrorist massacre. For that, they were rightly condemned […]
Melanie Phillips Israel National News, Nov. 3, 2023 At a campaign event in Minneapolis, Refom Rabbi Jessica Rosenberg shouted at U.S. President Joe Biden: “As a rabbi, I need you to call for a ceasefire right now.” When Sir Keir Starmer became leader of Britain’s Labour Party after the hard-left Jeremy Corbyn was unseated, he vowed to […]

Daniel Henninger WSJ, Nov. 1, 2023 “On balance, the Biden administration’s support for Israel has been firm because its representatives understand the direct line between the 1930s and Oct. 7.” After The House last week overwhelmingly passed a resolution condemning Hamas for its attack in southern Israel Oct. 7, New Jersey Democrat Josh Gottheimer wrote on social media […]

Molly Ball WSJ, Oct. 31, 2023 “Rep. Josh Gottheimer, a New Jersey centrist, said on X, formerly Twitter that the 15 Democrats who didn’t vote for the resolution were “despicable and do not speak for our party.” In response, one of the 15, Rep. Andre Carson of Indiana, called Gottheimer a “coward” and a “punk,” and invited him to settle […]
Shany Mor WSJ, Oct. 20, 2023 “Western activists for Palestinians are dedicated to two nearly theological precepts: that Israel is evil, and that no Palestinian action is ever connected to any Palestinian outcome. Each precept is grounded in longstanding—and borderline racist—conceptions of Jews and Arabs.’ You might think that an atrocity like Hamas’s Oct. 7 […]
Brendan O’Neill Spiked, Oct. 31, 2023 “… there is a logical line from the furious denunciation of certain forms of speech as ‘violence’ to the implicit acceptance of actual violence if it is directed against ‘bad’ people. That line is what we might call narcissistic savagery, where almost anything can be justified in the name […]
