Nadav Shragai Israel Hayom, Nov. 14, 2024 “Erdogan’s congratulations to President-elect Donald Trump on his victory should remind the American president of Turkey’s deceptive overtures to Israel just two years ago.” Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan‘s support for Hamas and hostility toward Israel have reached a critical point, with Turkey providing sanctuary to Hamas operatives while […]
Sinan Ciddi Washington Examiner, Nov. 16, 2024 “Erdogan’s championing of Hamas is entrenched. Turkey is the only country inside the NATO alliance and, certainly, the only U.S. ally that openly embraces Hamas as a group of “resistance fighters.”” Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan feels he has reason to be optimistic. He was bracing for the election of Vice President Kamala […]
Michael Rubin Middle East Forum, Nov. 4, 2024 “Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan took a formidable military and sought to remake it in his own image.” A video circulating on Telegram and other social media suggests North Korean Special Forces dispatched to fight Ukraine on Russia’s behalf have seen their first combat. The video purports to interview the single North Korean […]

Ruthie Blum JNS, Nov. 18, 2024 “Thomas-Greenfield, like her boss Blinken and the rest of the outgoing administration, has been focused on currying favour with the world’s malign actors.” Whether the Biden administration is planning a last hurrah for the Jewish state at the United Nations—a lame-duck good riddance, à la Barack Obama, in the […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Nov. 15, 2024 “With Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) as secretary of state, Pete Hegseth as defense secretary and Waltz, Huckabee, Witkoff and Stefanik in charge, there is no longer any question whether the second Trump administration will take a very different, far more pro-Israel position than the stands of the Biden/Harris administration […]

JP Editorial Jerusalem Post, Nov. 17, 2024 “At the heart of Trump’s foreign policy is the aspiration to end wars and expand peace initiatives in conflict zones, including the Middle East.” US President-elect Donald Trump chose strong supporters of Israel in a series of appointments announced last week. They include Marco Rubio as secretary of state, Pete Hegseth […]
Luke Tress/JTA Jerusalem Post, Nov. 18, 2024 “After Trump’s 2020 loss, the family moved to Miami and sat out Trump’s most recent reelection campaign.” These names, and a few others, became familiar to American Jews over the four years of the first Donald Trump White House.

Omar Mohammed Times of Israel, Nov. 13, 2024 “Paradoxically, this language of exclusion coexists with a widespread nostalgia for a “golden age” of interfaith harmony, a time many Arabs proudly recall as an era when Muslims, Jews, and Christians lived together in peace across the medieval Islamic world.” Arabic is a language of extraordinary […]
Melanie Phillips JNS, Nov. 14, 2024 “Evidence that the post-match attacks were part of the broader Islamic war against Jews and the West was provided the following day when the same pro-Hamas mobs attacked the Amsterdam police, who had belatedly banned the continuing hate fest.” America is attempting to clean up its house. Europeans […]
Philologos Mosaic Magazine, Nov. 14, 2024 “Ultimately, “Judeo-Christian” fell out of favor for being exclusionist and anti-Muslim. Once associated with liberal values, it was increasingly identified with the illiberal political right.” In the Jewish world whose annual cycle of Torah readings recommenced last month, these are the weeks of Abraham. Last week was the […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Nov. 10, 2024 “Rather than being exceptional, it is part of a pattern of behavior that is the natural outcome of a combination of factors that have emboldened those who hate Jews to act on their vile beliefs.” Much like the reaction to the Hamas massacre of 1,200 Israelis on […]
