Adi Nirman Israel Hayom, July 29, 2024 “Was 9/11 carried out by al-Qaida militants or terrorists? Would you describe the Taliban merely as an “Islamic movement”? Terrorists are terrorists, it doesn’t “depend on the context.” When searching for “Hamas” on Google, the world’s unlimited information source, the first description that appears is “Palestinian militant group.” […]

Yaakov Amidror Jerusalem Post, Aug. 13, 2024 “The more the IDF succeeds in hitting the military side, the easier it will be to target the civilian system that will float to the surface.” Recently, CNN published an in-depth article on the war in Gaza, claiming that while the IDF dealt a severe blow to Hamas, the organization is […]
Andrew Fox Tablet, Aug. 12, 2024 “… many Western analysts are incapable of seeing the conflict through anything but the lens of post-9/11 operations.” There is desperation in Western media to declare Israel’s campaign in Gaza, Operation Swords of Iron, a failure. Over the past several months, there has been a steady supply of […]

Zach Kessel National Review, Aug. 14, 2024 “Shame on UCLA for letting antisemitic thugs terrorize Jews on campus. Today’s ruling says that UCLA’s policy of helping antisemitic activists target Jews is not just morally wrong but a gross constitutional violation. UCLA should stop fighting the Constitution and start protecting Jews on campus.” A Los […]
Cary Nelson SPME, Aug. 13, 2024 “It would be perhaps the first time in history that reflective philosopher kings alone have organized mass action.” Last week, the American Association of University Professors set aside its hundred-year defence of academic freedom by opening the door to any number of individually initiated academic boycotts. Individual students and […]
Paul Sperry Real Clear Investigations, June 19, 2024 “… his organization, which employs a full-time campus outreach coordinator, is under both federal and state investigation for ties to Hamas, and is also a defendant in a major new lawsuit brought by survivors of the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attack.” Echoing the Muslim prophet Muhammad, […]
Anat Peled and Carrie Keller-Lynn SPME, July 10, 2024 “Israelis are finding they are no longer welcome at many European universities, including participating in scientific collaborations. Their participation in cultural institutions and defense trade shows is increasingly becoming taboo.” Years of pro-Palestinian campaigning for a global boycott against Israel once found limited support. But in […]

Salem Alktebi Israel Hayom, Aug. 11, 2024 “For the first time, the Iranian regime finds its hands bound from a genuine military response that would restore its pride, especially since the theatrics it carried out in response to targeting the Iranian consulate in Damascus did not convince anyone.” No analyst would doubt that the Iranian regime […]
Gordon G. Chang Gatestone Institute, Aug. 14, 2024 “China, until the killing of Haniyeh, seemingly was driving events in the Middle East, but it now looks as if Beijing’s green light for an Iranian attack on Israel is an attempt to stop an unfavorable trend.” China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi on August 11 told Iran’s acting […]
Laurence Norman and Michael R. Gordon WSJ, Aug. 9, 2024 “Driving the change in the new intelligence assessment is scientific and engineering research work that Iran has been doing over the past year.” Iran is pursuing research that has put it in a better position to launch a nuclear-weapons program, according to a new […]
Farzin Nadimi The Washington Institute for Near East Policy, Aug. 9, 2024 “During the April 13 attack, Iran stated that it did not use some of its most modern and capable ballistic missiles, probably expecting that the worst of the conflict was yet to come.” The July 31 killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh […]

Canaan Lidor Times of Israel, Aug. 12, 2024 “Tisha B’Av invokes October 7 not because of the onslaught’s death toll — the highest of any massacre of Jews since the Holocaust — but because “our identity is now once again linked to pain, loss, and tragedy that makes Tisha B’Av one of deeper meaning, prayer, […]
