Khaled Abu Toameh Gatestone Institute, Mar. 1, 2024 “If the Shtayyeh government was already working on a plan to revamp the Palestinian Authority (as the US administration is demanding), why is he being asked to be replaced with another Abbas loyalist?” On February 26, Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Mohammed Shtayyeh announced his resignation, paving the way for […]

Gadi Taub Tablet, Feb. 21, 2024 “Trying to force a solution on Israel without any hope of peace will only cause more Israelis to believe that our erstwhile American ally has turned against us.” If the news that the U.S. is going to recognize a Palestinian state that doesn’t exist was intended to break up […]

Nadav Shragai Israel Hayom, Mar. 3, 2024 “The PalestiNazis, if we are to put this in a nutshell, aspire to complete what the Nazis failed to do – the destruction of the Jewish people.” “Hitler” – the preacher Massoud Rian once informed his audience – “was sent by Allah to punish the Jews for their […]

Natan Cohen-Magnus, Times of Israel, Feb. 28, 2024 Say what you will about Jon Stewart, but he is an intelligent and caring person, with integrity and a deep desire to do some good in the world. This was admirably demonstrated by his passionate backing of benefits for 9/11 first responders. I like Jon. I don’t […]
Melanie Phillips, Substack, Jan. 21, 2024 The Conservative MP Andrew Percy has accused the BBC of putting British Jews directly at risk through its coverage of the Israel-Gaza conflict. Absolutely. The BBC’s relentless portrayal of the Israelis not as the victims of genocidal terror but as hard-hearted, vengeful and wanton killers of children and the […]
Benny Morris Quillette, Feb. 27, 2024 “… the article’s worst historical distortions concern the events surrounding the Second World War. Penslar claims that “between 9,000 and 12,000 Palestinians fought for the Allied forces in World War II.” In fact, as far as I know, it is doubtful whether any Palestine Arabs actually “fought” during the war …” […]
Jonathan Leaf, Commentary Magazine, February 2024 Since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, one figure has been most ubiquitous and most determined in his assertions that Israel is actually to blame: British academic Avi Shlaim. His op-eds or his comments have appeared in the Los Angeles Times, EL PAÍS (Spain), Al-Quds, the Wire, the Irish Times, the Islam Channel, […]

David Stavrou Haaretz, Feb. 3, 2024 “We always had antisemitism, but you could avoid it by moving to a different neighborhood or changing your job. Now it’s everywhere – in the streets and squares, even in the ‘nice’ neighborhoods.” Sweden’s Jewish community is preparing to celebrate its 250th anniversary next year, but what was being […]
Raphael Ahren Times of Israel, Nov. 6, 2012 ‘Today, the radical left-wing government silently accepts Hamas’s demand for ethnic cleansing of the Jewish minority, while foreign ministers like Jonas Gahr-Store pose no major remarks.’ A prominent Norwegian historian and a senior diplomat from her country wrangled over the Scandinavian’s country’s anti-Semitism and anti-Israel record, trading […]
Itamar Eichner Ynet News, Feb. 25, 2024 “Norway is the only country in Europe that does not define Hamas as a terrorist organization.” After a long period during which Ireland was considered the most hostile country toward Israel in Europe, it seems that Norway has managed to take its place and win the dubious title.

Torkel Brekke WSJ, Feb. 27, 2024 “When Norwegian university faculty and boards call for boycotts of Israel, their virtue signaling typically comes without a cost, but a counter-boycott might change the calculus because losing U.S. partners would hurt most institutions.” I have spent years researching religious discrimination against Jews and Muslims globally and am deeply […]

Noah Rothman National Review, Feb. 27, 2024 “What is this sort of advocacy meant to achieve other than to convince other naïve, blinkered radicals to commit similar acts of violence — acts that may not be limited to self-harm?” We love death like our enemies love life.” That chilling mantra, expressed a decade ago by Hamas […]
