Steve Hendrix Stars & Stripes, Mar. 18, 2022 “Stingers and Javelins are critical of course,” he said of the antiaircraft and antitank missiles. “But for us, these vehicles are essential. They are our firepower, our mobility.” There were no passport officers on the dirt road, no customs lane, no signs marking this isolated patch of […]
Gen. Rick Hiller National Post, Mar. 19, 2022 “I’ve said many times this week that sanctions, economic punishments, financial constraints and restrictions on powerful Russian people are wonderful, and for Ukraine, right now, useless.” If platitudes were air defence missiles, praise was anti-tank rockets, applause was fighters, and wishes and prayers were weapons, after this […]
Liz Sly and Dan Lamothe Washington Post, Mar. 20, 2022 “The Pentagon said that Russia’s “combat power” in Ukraine has dipped below 90 percent of its original force. The assessment reflects the significant losses that Russian troops have suffered at the hands of Ukrainian soldiers.” Russia’s attempt to conquer Ukraine could be headed toward a stalemate […]

John D. Maurer War on the Rocks, Mar. 10, 2022 “… many current policy proposals designed to reduce the chances of inadvertent nuclear escalation would also undermine faith in American nuclear deterrence, making major conventional and nuclear conflict more likely.” The ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine and Vladimir Putin’s recent nuclear threats against his neighbors are drawing renewed […]
Christopher Dickey Daily Beast, Apr. 13, 2017 “In the mid-1950s, no country was ready to guarantee Israel’s survival, and its Arab neighbors were committed to its obliteration, exploiting the massive displacement of Palestinian refugees as a central cause around which to build pan-Arab nationalism, even as the Palestinians themselves were forced into camps and isolated […]
Donald Kirk Winona Daily News, Mar. 19, 2022 “For his coming ICBM/satellite launch, Kim need not worry about more sanctions. The reason for testing ICBMs is to figure out how they can carry nuclear warheads to the United States. Vladimir Putin should appreciate the need for Kim to be able to nuke an enemy.” Nuclear […]
Tony Capaccio National Post, Mar. 18, 2022 “… Putin’s order in February putting Russia’s nuclear forces on “special combat duty” refers to “heightened preparations designed to ensure a quick transition to higher alert status should the situation call for it.” President Vladimir Putin can be expected to brandish threats to use nuclear weapons against the […]

Robert Malley Jewish Currents, Feb. 4, 2021 “He embraced a strong Arab nationalistic worldview and I can’t recall him ever evincing much understanding for or even desire to understand Israelis and their state.” Robert Malley’s critics—who failed last month to prevent Joe Biden from naming him special envoy to Iran—called him a radical. Senator Tom Cotton alleged that […]
Andrew C. McCarthy National Review, Mar. 19, 2022 “Congress, especially the Senate, has abdicated what the Framers presumed would be a partnership with the president in conducting foreign policy.” ‘It’s unconscionable.” That is how Senator Ted Cruz (R., Texas) exquisitely described the Biden administration’s determination to lift the economic sanctions against Iran — the sanctions that former President […]
Con Coughlin Gatestone Institute, Mar. 17, 2022 “We received written guarantees,” said Mr Lavrov. “They are included in the text of the agreement itself on the resumption of the JCPOA on the Iranian nuclear programme.” Having conspicuously failed in its efforts to prevent Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the Biden administration looks set to add to its global […]
Tony Badran Tablet, Mar. 16, 2022 “Anyone who wants something in Syria, the Obama administration told U.S. allies, should go talk to Putin.” The Biden administration has spent the last two weeks publicly censuring and sanctioning Russia over its brutal invasion of Ukraine. Yet even as it engaged in evermore shrill public denunciations of the […]

Col. Richard Kemp Col. Richard Kemp.com, Feb. 4, 2022 “The lie of ‘Israeli apartheid’ was dreamt up in Moscow during the Cold War and driven home by a relentless Soviet propaganda campaign until it took hold in the UN and across the Middle East and the West.” Last month the UN General Assembly re-affirmed its […]
