Gadi Taub Tablet, Feb. 12, 2024 “The two-state solution is, sadly, no solution at all. Rather, it is a big step down the road to another Lebanon.” I don’t fault any Zionist or ally of Israel for having embraced the two-state solution, as I did for many years. No other peace plan could reconcile […]
Andrew Silow-Carroll JTA, Feb. 18, 2024 “There was a whole roadmap for the gradual steps that would lead to the Palestinian Authority’s restored management of Gaza.” When I reached Nimrod Novik in Raanana, Israel and asked how he was feeling, he was blunt. “Bad,” said Novik, 77, who was a senior policy adviser to the late […]

Stephen Blank The Hill, Feb. 14, 2024 “It would be better for all concerned if Western statesmen understood that terrorism and antisemitism must first be extirpated not appeased and then acted on that insight rather than on the organized hysteria of the moment.” From every corner comes pressure upon Israel to acquiesce to a two-state solution. Allegedly […]
Dror Eydar Israel Hayom, Feb. 16, 2024 “Let’s restate the obvious: the disengagement from the Gaza Strip was an attempt to implement the “two-state solution.” Israel withdrew down to the last inch and the result was that Gaza became the biggest terrorist fortress ever erected.” 1. What scares Hamas? Complete victory is not about honor, […]

Andrei Soldatov and Irina Borogan, Foreign Affairs, Feb. 16, 2024 The announcement on Friday that the Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has died in a remote Russian prison colony has left observers of the country in shock. For years, the most fearless critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin and the pervasive corruption of Putin’s […]
John Jurgensen, WSJ, Feb. 16, 2024 Daniel Roher, a 30-year-old Canadian filmmaker based in Los Angeles, found out about Alexei Navalny’s death on Friday when his wife, Caroline, woke him up at 4 a.m., having seen the headlines while tending to their 3-week-old baby. Few people outside Russia got to know Navalny as closely as Roher […]
Bari Weiss, The Free Press, Feb. 16, 2024 Alexei Navalny had a choice. After he was poisoned by Moscow in August of 2020, after he emerged from a monthlong coma in a Berlin hospital, after he overcame the terrible effects of the nerve agent Novichok, which was developed by the Soviet Union, he could have stayed in exile in […]
Ian Garner, Unherd, Feb. 16, 2024 When Alexei Navalny chose to board a flight to Moscow in January 2021, the opposition leader must have known his death was all but inevitable. After surviving one assassination attempt, and staring down the barrel of a long jail sentence handed down by Russia’s corrupt judiciary, Navalny chose […]

Editorial WSJ, Feb. 14, 2024 “Hamas can’t be destroyed while it has access to the Egyptian border and control of the flow of aid at Rafah.” Ever notice how it is always deemed a humanitarian imperative to let Hamas survive? The diplomatic pressure on Israel to stay out of Rafah, Hamas’s final stronghold, has become enormous. […]
David Horovltz Times of Israel, Feb. 14, 2024 “One way or another, both Israel’s political and military chiefs are adamant, however, that the IDF will tackle Hamas in Rafah — the terror group’s last major largely intact stronghold, and the presumed hiding place of Hamas’s Gaza chief Yahya Sinwar and most of the hostages.” 1. […]
David Patrikarakos Unherd, Feb. 14, 2024 “Hatred and fear of Hamas runs deep in Egypt’s rulers.” A few years ago, while reporting in Gaza, I paid a visit to the Rafah border crossing with Egypt. Mohammed, my fixer, wasn’t keen. The guards there, he explained, were unfriendly. Sometimes they’d fire in the air if people […]
Ruth Marks Eglash Jewish Insider, Feb. 15, 2024 “The key to winning the war is for Israel to take over Rafah, destroy the remaining Hamas battalions and take control of the Egyptian border.” As Israel turns its attention to Gaza’s southernmost governate, Rafah, and what could be its final big battle in the war against […]
