Seth J. Frantzman The National Interest, Mar. 4, 2024 “Israeli leaders have vowed to defeat Hamas, but the group is still in control of Rafah and continues to control the aid that entered Gaza via southern Gaza.” Five months of war between Israel and Hamas has led to Israel defeating Hamas in many parts of Gaza. However, […]

Yonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, Dec. 25, 2023 “… what Hamas did in Gaza could serve as an unprecedented case study, one of a terror group investing ten years and 40,000 fighters to transform an entire area into one extended terror playground.” No one has ever fought a war with an enemy so deeply entrenched […]
Barry R. Posen Times of Israel, Mar. 2, 2024 “Like the US and its allies in Iraq and Syria, Israel chose as its objective the destruction of its adversary. That’s why those earlier wars provide important insights into what Israel knew it would face in Gaza, and they help to explain its military strategy, tactics […]

Editorial Board WSJ, Feb. 29, 2024 “When the hate directed at Jewish students on campus is so extreme that the university can’t protect them, the failure rests with school officials as much as with the harassers.” Antisemitism took a frightening turn Monday at the University of California, Berkeley, where a pro-Palestinian mob surrounded a campus […]
Sergiu Klainerman Tablet, Feb. 26, 2024 “The degree of woke infection of a particular academic discipline appears to be inversely proportional to the level of its mathematical sophistication.” In the wake of Harvard, Penn, and MIT’s congressional testimony debacle, followed by the plagiarizing travails of Harvard’s President Claudine Gay and her reluctant and ungracious resignation, it […]
Andrew Lappin JTA, Jan. 31, 2024 “Anyone who believes that this is a way to have a violent approach to the freedom of Palestinians, that’s not what we’re calling for, not chanting for. But everyone has the right to interpret things on their own.” A suburban Minneapolis school district is facing a federal investigation for Islamophobic […]
Michael Oren Clarity with Michael Oren, Mar. 5, 2024 “How would the long-held Soviet dream of instilling doubt, divisiveness, and self-loathing in American society be posthumously realized?” “I think it’s fair to say that I am not a Zionist.” So proclaimed the renowned professor of Modern Arab History before a class of Princeton University undergraduates. […]

Caroline B. Glick JNS, Mar. 3, 2024 “The second reason that Carville and other leading Democratic voices in politics, academia and the media are blaming Israel for what they fear will be a Trump victory in November is because they are setting up Israel—and more broadly— “the Jews” in the United States and worldwide—as the […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Feb. 28, 2024 “With Biden promising to treat any pause in combat as an excuse to work for a permanent ceasefire, the main outcome of the next hostage deal (and there inevitably will be another) will be not so much an egregious act of extortion as a political victory for Hamas […]
Daniel Pipes WSJ, Mar. 3, 2024 “A trove of evidence, however, suggests that Gazans reject being used as pawns in the terror group’s strategy. Two surveys taken before Hamas’s Oct. 7 massacre signal that Gazans want to live normal lives.” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last month presented Israel’s security cabinet with a short document: “The Day After […]
Peter Berkowitz Real Clear Politics, Mar. 3, 2024 “… a Palestinian state in current circumstances is, to put matters gently, unlikely to respect individual freedom, democracy, and the rule of law. And it would provide Iran, the world’s leading state sponsor of terror, a comfortable outpost on Israel’s doorstep.” The United States and Israel have […]
Nils A. Haug Gatestone Institute, Mar. 3, 2024 “They [Hamas] told us in all of their statements that their charter is to destroy Israel and exterminate the Jews. Other countries have said the same thing. It’s also in the Houthis’ charter. It’s in Iran’s direct messaging. I think that when they tell you they want […]
