David Horovitz Times of Israel, Mar. 30, 2022 “The jihadist would-be caliphate may have lost its territorial assets, but its ideology lives on, including among a very small, but potentially deadly, Arab Israeli minority” Two decades after the Second Intifada — an onslaught of Palestinian suicide bombings in 2000-2003 in which 1,000 Israelis were killed […]
Yaakov Lappin JNS, Mar. 29, 2022 “Something here has become broken in terms of the operations of security forces against ISIS-affiliated suspects.” ISIS-inspired terrorists create significant challenges for intelligence agencies that make them harder to pick up, and Israeli security forces need to adopt new patterns of operation following back-to-back terror attacks, a former defense […]
J.E. Dyer The Optimistic Conservative, Mar. 29, 2022 “I recommend considering the possibility that some Arabs from Israel and the territories are being radicalized on a new(ish) vector by regional opponents of the Abraham Accords, the Negev summit, and the changing dynamics of regional alignment and connections.” This will be a brief Ready Room; basically […]
Amos Harel Haaretz, Mar. 25, 2022 “In recent years, there had been a sharp decline in terror attacks by ISIS and its supporters until another turning point occurred – the chaotic American withdrawal from Afghanistan and the Taliban’s reassertion of control. This was perceived by Islamists as a victory that would inspire supporters all around […]

Machla Abramovitz Mishpacha Magazine, Feb. 9, 2022 They were the Jews of Kortelisy — close-knit, religiously committed, yet highly vulnerable. Their village, an impoverished yet happy hamlet in the backwoods of western Ukraine, between Brest-Litovsk (Brisk) and Kowel (Kovel), was home to about 30 Jewish families among Ukrainian Orthodox Christian neighbors. But try finding Kortelisy on […]

Miriam Berger Washington Post, Mar. 10, 2022 Ukraine’s Jewish community was on the up. After centuries of pogroms and emigration driven by antisemitism, followed by the devastation of the Holocaust in World War II, and then Soviet repression, recent decades brought a flourishing of synagogues, Jewish schools and community centers. Estimates of how many Jews […]
Bernard-Henri Lévy Tablet, Mar. 13, 2022 Among the most disgraceful words Vladimir Putin has uttered since he began this war are his calls to “denazify” Ukraine. Because this story is far from finished, and because we can always count on the Kremlin’s media outlets and networks to promote any piece of fake news, I want […]
Tania Krämer DW, Mar. 23, 2022 A small four-star hotel near the central bus station in west Jerusalem has become a temporary home to Ukrainians fleeing the war back home. For some, it is their first time in Israel. For others, such as Julia Rabenko and her teenage son Kyrill, they’re returning after past visits. […]

Jerold S. Auerbach JNS, Mar. 24, 2022 “Friedman wondered “what kind of society is Israel to become?” Would it be “a Jewish South Africa, permanently ruling Palestinians in West Bank homelands” or will it be “a Jewish Prussia, trying to bully all its neighbours.” As it turned out, neither. It was then, and has remained, […]
Ira Stoll Algemeiner, Mar. 3, 2022 ““I’d be a lot more open minded to Tlaib’s work if I saw her criticize not just Israel, but the Palestinian Authority and Hamas for their complete absence of leadership. They are not democracies, but, rather, dictatorships/oligarchies, which are far more comfortable enriching themselves at the expense of their […]
Scott Johnson Powerline, Mar. 24, 2022 “The Times wants to reserve to itself the authority to determine which highly classified information is to be exposed to the enemies of the United States. I don’t.” The New York Times supports the efforts of the government to get James O’Keefe and Project Veritas in the case of […]
Margot Cleveland The Federalist, Mar. 25, 2022 “The Times’s tactic of preemptively providing defenses to hypothetical criminal charges should also alert readers to the inevitability of an indictment against Hunter.” Last Wednesday, The New York Times reported on the continuing criminal investigation into Hunter Biden, and in doing so finally acknowledged the emails recovered from the laptop […]
