Deborah Lipstadt The Free Press, Mar. 2, 2025 Until last week, I had been seriously considering teaching at Columbia University next year as a visiting professor. But I’m now convinced that to do so would be folly—to serve as a prop or a fig leaf. Moreover, I feel doing so would mean putting myself and […]

Jared Malsin, Alexander Ward, and Dov Lieber WSJ, Feb. 12, 2025 “Iran is more exposed than ever to strikes on its nuclear facilities. We have the opportunity to achieve our most important goal—to thwart and eliminate the existential threat to the State of Israel.” U.S. intelligence agencies concluded during the final days of the Biden […]
Jonathan Spyer Jerusalem Post, Feb. 21, 2025 “Iran’s disadvantage cannot be assumed as a now permanent factor in the Mideast strategic picture. Rather, it is an asset that will eventually decline or even disappear, unless exploited.” In a soon-to-be-published article in Middle East Quarterly magazine, Colin Winston, a 30-year veteran of the CIA and former head of […]
Christopher de Bellaigue Foreign Affairs, Feb. 25, 2025 “In Khamenei’s view, what matters is the long term.” Since October 7, 2023, the long arm of Iran has seemingly been everywhere in the crises that have beset the Middle East. With its eye on Hezbollah, Iran’s heavily armed Shiite ally in Lebanon, Israel was wholly unprepared […]
Robert Williams Gatestone, Feb. 26, 2025 “Iran is using organized and violent criminal gangs to carry out serious attacks within Sweden. Sweden is not at war. But there is no peace either.” Iran’s terror axis, thanks to Israel’s military operations, is finally beginning to collapse. Iranian terrorist proxies have been seeming to disintegrate across the […]

Ynet News, Feb. 26, 2025 “This whitewashing keeps viewers ill-informed about Hamas and promotes sympathy for their deadly ideology. It signifies the institutional failure behind the BBC’s reporting of the Israel-Hamas conflict.” The BBC has been accused of “whitewashing” participants’ views in its controversial Gaza documentary by mistranslating references to “the Jews” and omitting praise […]
Rachel O’Donoghue Algemeiner, Feb. 18, 2025 “In a brazen display of false equivalence, Kuenssberg used the horrifying condition of the freed Israeli hostages as a springboard to push baseless allegations of abuse in Israeli prisons — a remark Herzog rightly called “outrageous” for its vile moral equivalence.” The media’s coverage of the release of the first […]
Neil Davenport Spiked, Feb. 26, 2025 “For the British establishment, Islam is treated less as a religion and more a racial badge. To attack Islamist extremism is supposedly to attack a ‘brown-skinned’ community – a notion that smothers debate and only deepens divides between Muslims and non-Muslims.” The BBC’s recent documentary about Gaza has been […]
Adam LeBor The Free Press, Feb. 24, 2025 “BBC bosses absolutely know that there is a systemic problem of bias at BBC Arabic, but the fact that they have not admitted it is just pure gaslighting of the Jewish community.” Abdullah Al-Yazouri, a 13-year-old boy living in the Gaza Strip, is a natural in front […]

Hussein Aboubakr Mansour Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs, Feb. 19, 2025 “Al Jazeera’s Arabic channel regularly lambasts the region’s monarchies and strongmen for failing to support the Palestinians, all while the Qatari monarchy itself cultivates cordial ties with Western powers like the United States, having thousands of American technocrats and professors on its generous […]
Joseph Puder JNS, Feb. 24, 2025 “The Qataris are playing a sinister, two-faced game with the Americans and Europeans. While investing in large American and European enterprises, they are also funding terror against Israel and the West.” Qatar is a small country of less than 5,000 square miles that yields enormous power due to its immense […]
Yoav Limor Israel Hayom, Feb. 14, 2025 “At some point, it appears, Qatar began investing in Israel as well. Presumably, it did so to buy influence and immunity for itself – sometimes in that order and sometimes in reverse.” The fact that Israel urged Qatar to increase aid to Gaza has been known for a […]
