Eran Ortal BESA, Sept. 26, 2024 “Even after the assassination of Akil in the Dahaya district, Israel remains committed to the idea of the “threshold of escalation”. “ The daring operations carried out by Israel in the northern arena in recent weeks deserve to be praised for the exceptional feats they were. According to The […]

John Raine Engelsberg Ideas, Sept. 20, 2024 “While Hizbollah’s propaganda, like that of other members of the Axis of Resistance, promotes the idea of an inevitable, apocalyptic conflict with Israel in which its enemy is ultimately destroyed, in practice that is not what the Hizbollah leadership have sought.” Israel has shifted gear in Lebanon. […]
Lazar Berman Times of Israel, Sept. 26, 2024 “Hezbollah probes for weaknesses in Israel’s defenses, and erodes Iron Dome interceptor stocks, by launching growing numbers of drones recently.” The IDF has been hammering Hezbollah since the Lebanese terror group began firing over the border the day after Hamas’s October 7 invasion of southern Israel. […]
Bret Stephens NY Times, Sept 24, 2024 “… the re-establishment of the Israeli-controlled security zone in southern Lebanon that existed from 1985 to 2000 might, for all the long-term problems it presents, be the least-bad alternative.” In 2006 Hezbollah launched a guerrilla raid into Israel.

Clifford D. May Higher Ground Times, Sept. 24, 2024 “… last Friday, unnamed Washington officials leaked a new policy that will please Iranian leader Ali Khamenei: President Biden plans to withdraw the tiny contingent of American forces — just 2,500 troops — from Iraq by 2026.” The long war that Iran’s rulers and their […]
Martin Sherman JNS, Sept. 23, 2024 “A perverse concern for Hamas’s demands—and the welfare of their malign adherents—is now not only dominating the debate on the fighting in Gaza but also largely determining attitudes toward the negotiations on the release of the abductees held in captivity by the Islamist thugs.” We will tear down the […]
Michael Hirsh Foreign Policy, Sept. 24, 2024 “… the General Assembly, the body once apotheosized as the Parliament of Man is more than ever a place paralyzed by regional politics, the speechifying and petty clubbiness of smaller nations—and often anti-Israel invective.” It wasn’t an especially warm goodbye on either side of the podium. U.S. President […]

Yonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, Sept. 24, 2024 “Hezbollah is far from beaten, and the celebratory proclamations by some Israeli analysts that the danger has passed are highly exaggerated.” The most prevalent question being asked as the IDF and Hezbollah escalate their attacks on each other without any sign that either side will […]
Caroline B. Glick JNS, Sept. 24, 2024 “The south is like a beehive right now. Everything the Iranians have, we have.” The life of Israel is a split screen. The first screen shows the life of a nation and a country fending off a coordinated seven-front assault whose goal is the Jewish state’s […]
