Anna Ahronheim Jerusalem Post, Jan. 30, 2022 “This is a second variation of the Cold War with three sides – Russia, China and the United States. The question is how bad can it go?” The standoff between Russia and the West over Ukraine is the beginning of a variation of a second Cold War, and Israel is […]

Jacob Kornbluh The Forward, Jan. 27, 2022 “I still remember him telling me the story of the shock that he encountered when he entered the concentration camp and saw the survivors, the piles of bodies and the unbearable stench. It was a formative experience in his life.” On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, Israel’s new ambassador […]
Yaakov Hagoel Jerusalem Post, Jan. 27, 2022 “This is the day when a shout goes out from one end of the world to the other; antisemitism is antisemitism is antisemitism, no matter what cloak it tries to hide behind.” Each club has its own entrance ticket which sets its members apart. Political parties, teams, sports associations […]
Jonathan Tobin United With Israel, Jan. 27, 2022 “Everyone already knows that the “Never Again” talk uttered by world leaders is without value.” It was a great day for Israeli diplomacy. For the first time, the U.N. General Assembly passed a resolution sponsored by the Jewish state and it received nearly universal support. Adopted on Jan. […]

Sheldon Kirschner The Times of Israel, Jan. 26, 2022 “Petain tells Laval that while Jewish citizens of France can’t be deported, stateless Jews can be.” Shortly after Germany conquered France in 1940, the collaborationist Vichy regime of Henri Philippe Petain announced its first antisemitic law. It relegated Jews to second-class citizenship and paved the way […]
Haras Rafiq European Eye on Radicalization, Jan. 26, 2022 “As a British Muslim, I find that antisemitism is once again at a critical mass, but this time the charge is not being led by Nazis but by Islamists, spearheaded by the Muslim Brotherhood, who believe that they are doing “God’s work”, aided by the political […]
William Daroff JNS, Jan. 25, 2022 “How do we keep our community safe? What is the legacy of the Holocaust and our efforts to remember it more than seven decades on? How do our endeavors change as the last survivors leave us and the event passes from living memory?” Jewish life in America feels more […]
Bret Stephens NY Times, Jan. 21, 2022 “Antisemitism? You would think it could not be more obvious, as everyone from the prime minister of Israel to the president of the United States to the Council on American-Islamic Relations agrees. But first you’d have to climb over a strange wall of obfuscation, misdirection and doubt.” A […]

Udi Dekel INSS Insight No. 1550, Jan. 23, 2022 “Iran’s military and civilian entrenchment in Syria continues, albeit adjusting to changing circumstances and with more limited scope than was originally intended.” One example of mistaken over-optimism: as part of the United States Senate investigation of the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan, senior Pentagon officials […]
Oubai Shahbandar Arab News, Jan. 20, 2022 “Preventing Iranian entrenchment in Syria is probably impossible. The question is the rate and quantity of Iranian entrenchment and the quality of this entrenchment.” Israeli airstrikes on Iranian and Hezbollah targets in Syria have been growing in scale and frequency in recent months as Tehran seeks to cement […]
Jonathan Spyer Jerusalem Post, Jan. 20, 2022 “… the timing and nature of the incidents, and their intensity, are significant. They are an indication not of Iranian strength, but rather of the relative disarray and confusion observable in the pro-Iran camp in Iraq at the present moment.” A series of bomb and grenade attacks have […]
Seth J. Frantzman Jerusalem Post, Jan. 19, 2022 “Iran has used the Houthis to attack Saudi Arabia and last year positioned Shahed 136 drones in Yemen. The drones have a range that can reach Israel.
