Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Sept. 4, 2025 “… above all, the goal for Washington is to end the fighting in Gaza and preclude the outbreak of full-scale war against Hezbollah in Lebanon, at almost any cost. The sooner the guns are silenced, the quicker they can put the whole issue behind them and preclude losing […]

Andrew C. McCarthy National Review, Sept. 3, 2024 “Who is going to help the FBI execute arrest warrants against Hamas in Gaza? The “government” in Gaza is Hamas. The “government” in the West Bank would be Hamas if the Palestinians there were permitted to vote.” Could it be more fitting that, in the criminal complaint […]
Seth Mandel Commentary Magazine, Sept. 5, 2024 “What’s the problem, exactly? Well, Hamas is, you know, executing the hostages it is supposed to be preparing to hand over to Israel as part of the deal.” The Biden administration is really pushing the limits of “better late than never.” The president and his team have finally begun […]

Yitzy Frankel Real Clear Education, Sept. 6, 2024 “UCLA leadership—those entrusted to ensure the safety of students—told campus police to stand down, ceding control over public university property to antisemitic militants. The entire experience would have made Orwell blush.” When I chose to attend UCLA, I never thought I’d be segregated from my peers for […]
Asaf Romirowsky The Hill, Aug. 30, 2024 “Plainly put, Columbia did nothing to stop the riots in the first place. And once the rioters had been arrested and charged, it was quick to let them off with a just slap on the wrist.” It’s late August. For those of us in higher education, this means […]
Andrew Bostom Gatestone Institute, Sept. 6, 2024 “The study authors concluded that although “a climate of universal anti-Jewish hatred” did not exist, Jewish student concerns about antisemitism were justified, and “driven by about a third of students who held distinct patterns of beliefs about Jews and Israel.”” The carnage of October 7, 2023 in southern Israel was […]
Eli Lake The Free Press, Sept. 7, 2024 “What leads a person to put down their placard and pick up a gun?” Last year, American universities exploded with protests over a war half a world away in Gaza. In solidarity with the perpetrators of October 7, keffiyeh-clad students covered campus grounds with “encampments,” took over […]

Naveh Dromi Ynet News, Sept. 3, 2024 “… at no point, from the first deal onward, were we ever close to signing an agreement for the hostages’ return. It was never on the table except in the fevered imaginations of a few who even the events of October 7 didn’t wake from their delusions.” Even […]
Bret Stephens NY Times, Sept. 3, 2024 “Once Israel leaves Gaza, international pressure for it not to re-enter for nearly any reason short of another Oct. 7 will be overwhelming.” Since the days of Abraham — who, according to Genesis, rescued his nephew Lot after he’d been seized by an invading army — Jewish tradition has […]
Liel Leibovitz Tablet, Sept. 5, 2024 “#BringThemHomeNow demonstrates just how hollow and inflamed Israeli public discourse has become. To whom, exactly, is this exhortation addressed?” Tens of thousands of protesters were swarming the streets of Tel Aviv on Sunday, calling on all restaurants, bars, and shops to shutter in solidarity. Many did. Highway 4, the […]
Jon Polin Israel from the Inside, Aug. 20, 2024 “There is war, there are reserves, there is Lebanon and there is Iran. The hostages? “It’s complicated,” and they choose not to speak.” Barely a few weeks into this war, back at the end of October or the beginning of November, we had most of our […]

Jamie Dettmer Politico, Aug. 12, 2024 “As Jewish Democrats, it’s tough to wrap our heads around the idea that everyone thought Shapiro was the strongest pick and he lost out. There was an unprecedented campaign against him by the far left, including many who aren’t even Democrats, to smear him because he’s an observant Jew.” […]
