Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Mar. 26, 2024 “A rational U.S. policy would have been one in which the U.N. Security Council would not be allowed to become a forum in which Hamas terrorism was effectively endorsed and Israeli self-defense treated as a war crime.” Don’t believe the Biden administration’s claim that it hasn’t changed its stance on […]

Sean Durns Washington Examiner, Mar. 25, 2024 “Militarily, Israel has been winning its war against Hamas. Defying its critics who predicted that Jerusalem would get bogged down in a protracted war, the Israel Defense Forces have made rapid advances and incurred far fewer losses than some, including policymakers in Washington, expected.” The Biden administration declined to […]

Melanie Phillips Substack, Mar. 26, 2024 “The US and UK have thus now voted for Israel to lose the war and for the hostages to remain in captivity.” In my article here last week, I wrote that America was abandoning Israel. Today, the Biden administration wrote its name in the annals of infamy by openly joining […]

Caroline B. Glick JNS, Mar. 22, 2024 “The discourse on Israel’s war in Gaza is suffused in blood libels.” According to Canada’s La Presse, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is a vampire, and he is poised to suck the life out of the Palestinians in Rafah, Hamas’s final outpost in southern Gaza. The publication that was […]
Gabby Deutch Jewish Insider, Mar. 25, 2024 “Do I stay and keep fighting this battle on an issue that I care so much about? Or do I say, OK, well, it’s now gotten to a point where I’m no longer at home here, and my community’s telling me they’re no longer at home?” Canadian MP […]
Chavi Feldman Times of Israel, Mar. 20, 2024 “I’m glad my grandparents aren’t alive to see what’s become of this world; what’s become of the Canada that had reluctantly offered them a safe haven back then. It’s certainly not the same Canada that I grew up in, that I truly loved.” When you grow up […]
Brian Lilley Toronto Sun, Mar. 18, 2024 “The entire chaotic day wasn’t really about foreign affairs, not for the Liberals and NDP, it was about shoring up support in the growing Muslim voting bloc.” Utter chaos. That is what the House of Commons descended into on Monday, especially Monday night just before an important vote on […]

Barry Shaw, Israel Hayom, Mar. 22, 2024 Joe Biden is, once again, at loggerheads with Israel. This has been brewing for decades. Biden infamously admitted telling Benjamin Netanyahu, “Bibi I love you, but I don’t agree with a damn thing you say.” Biden seems to have learned nothing from his personal contentious relationship with Israel going back decades. […]
Leanne Stillerman Zabow, Times of Israel, Mar. 25, 2024 This is our first Purim in Israel as olim (immigrants). I heard the question “how can we celebrate and be happy at such a time”? asked several times. The resounding idea came through that even more so, we should celebrate this year. We are […]
Stuart Halpern WSJ, Mar. 21, 2024 “Purim’s story reminds its readers that though what the late Rabbi Jonathan Sacks called the “dignity of difference” might be intolerable for some, pride in Jewish particularism serves as the wellspring of salvation.” Jews have always been a biblically minded people, but this year one ancient story feels tragically resonant. Synagogues […]
Rabbi Wendy Zierler The Torah.com, Mar. 17, 2016 “Purim merits repeated reassertion and preservation as an enduring truth in modern times and beyond not merely because it serves as a yearly reminder of Jewish vulnerability in exile and our gratitude for all the salvation that chance has sent our way but because it is the holiday […]

Philologos Mosaic Magazine, Mar. 16, 2023 “Hamas, however, is not a people. It is an organization. And when Netanyahu compared it to Amalek, he was calling for the extermination of an organization every last one of whose combatants Israel does want to see dead and with good reason.” “The word Amalek is now as common as […]
