Yonah Jeremy Bob, Jerusalem Post, Feb. 13, 2024 International Criminal Court Prosecutor Karim Khan warned Israel on Tuesday of harsher war crimes scrutiny if it invades Rafah, as well as for its general conduct in the war. This is not a verbal threat to be shrugged away, and it may just be the most dramatic […]
Isaac Herzog, WSJ, Feb. 11, 2024 In these dark days for Israel and the civilized world, there are many things that keep me up at night. One is that the international legal system has begun to ignore reality and truth. Justice is unrecognizable, and noble ideals are perverted by terrorists and cynics. These feelings were […]
Gerald Steinberg, Jerusalem Post, Feb. 2, 2024 The immoral and absurd complaint brought by South Africa – falsely charging Israel with genocide – and the majority’s incoherent preliminary decision highlight the deeply problematic nature of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) and related institutions. The central problem is legitimacy, or rather its absence, in the case of […]
Philologos, Mosaic Magazine, Feb. 1, 2024 The International Court of Justice’s January 19 decision that found, by a vote of 15-2, accusations of genocide against Israel sufficiently “plausible” to warrant a thorough investigation is one more hardly needed bit of evidence of how foolish and detached from reality supposedly intelligent legal minds can be.

Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Feb. 12, 2024 “… the main point of sending Finer to bend the knee to the mayor of Dearborn and other local Arab-American activists was to hint that the escalation of criticism of Israel on the part of the administration may be about to be translated into a policy shift.” […]
Yisrael Medad Jerusalem Post, Feb. 12, 2024 “His new directive authorizes a swift cutoff of military aid to countries that violate international protections of civilians.” This current American Democratic administration appears, at this time, to be determined to do as much damage to US-Israel relations as possible both within the confines of the traditional relationship […]
Melanie Phillips Israel National News, Feb. 8, 2024 “The shocking fact is that instead of regarding Iran as the mortal enemy not just of Israel, but of America and the civilized world, the Biden administration is treating it as an asset that must be protected.” Astonishingly, Israel has to fight right now to defend its […]

Edward N. Luttwack Tablet, Feb. 8, 2024 “Israel has effected massive cost savings while reducing its reliance on U.S. resupply—and taking the steam out of propaganda claims about bombing and artillery massacres.” Anyone who has ever been in combat knows that the enemy is almost always invisible, because to remain alive one must remain behind good […]
