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. The distance from Yemen to the UAE is around 1,300 km. from where the rockets or drones might have been launched; […]

Farnaz Fassihi and Lara Jakes NY Times, Jan. 12, 2022 Iran and the United States have recently engaged in a spiraling escalation of threats and warnings, even as they are progressing in diplomatic talks about reviving the 2015 nuclear deal. On Saturday, Iran’s Parliament placed largely symbolic sanctions on 51 Americans, many of them prominent […]
Lahav Harkov Jerusalem Post, Jan. 13, 2022 When asked how the indirect negotiations between the US and Iran to restore the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action nuclear deal were going, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki avoided answering the actual question, and instead launched into a revisionist history lesson blaming former president Donald Trump for Iran’s […]
Yoram Ettinger The Ettinger Report, Jan. 20, 2022 Ten days before the toppling of the Shah of Iran, president Jimmy Carter told a conference of world leaders on the Island of Guadeloupe that a Khomeini-led Iran “would not export revolution … and would be interested in buying tractors, not tanks.” On Jan. 11, six days before the […]
Joe Lieberman WSJ, Jan. 2, 2022 The biggest challenges the U.S. will face in 2022 won’t be Covid-19 or inflation but Russia and Iran. The way the Biden administration handles these two hostile, despotic governments may determine how secure our country will be for years. Moscow and Tehran are testing the administration’s foreign policy, which, […]

The National Security Archive, Episode 17, May 13, 1997 “… there has never been, I believe, in the history of any nation, a transformation of fortune as abrupt and as speedy and as providential as that which the Jewish people had in that period, during the first two years of its existence.” INTERVIEWER: Thank you […]
