Ron Kampeas Jewish Chronicle, Feb. 14, 2024 “As Israel battles Hamas, Hezbollah, and other Iranian proxies on its borders, we are urging both Democrats and Republicans to move beyond partisan differences and support emergency funding for the Jewish state,” AIPAC spokesman Marshall Wittmann said in an email.” Since Oct. 7, a growing number of […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Nov. 16, 2024 “Though the former president consistently ignored Carlson’s advice when it came to his historic support for Israel, as well as his tough attitude towards Iran when he was president, it’s not unreasonable to ask whether it might be different in a putative second Trump administration.” On the […]
Paul A. Gigot WSJ, Mar. 12, 2024 “What worries me these days is the lack of unity and resolve on the right. That includes the return of conservative isolationism.

This is the only reason UN officials and some Western political leaders falsely claim that no alternatives exist.” Last […]
Frederic Eger LinkedIn, Feb. 14, 2024 “… even without an express condemnation of Israel, a post that is clearly designed to evoke sympathy for Palestinians in Gaza, by showing photos of a distressed child, or emotional language, and which does not mention the responsibility of Hamas, will often evoke antipathy toward Israel.” Out of […]
Bob Goldberg Real Clear Policy, Feb. 28, 2024 “The question is, when it comes to Jews and Israelis if the ICRC has a moral compass at all.” In the pantheon of international organizations that treat Israel with a mix of disdain and indifference, the International Committee for the Red Cross (ICRC) is a cut above the […]
Abraham Wyner Tablet, Mar. 6, 2024 “This regularity is almost surely not real. One would expect quite a bit of variation day to day.” The number of civilian casualties in Gaza has been at the center of international attention since the start of the war. The main source for the data has been […]
