Michael Ginsberg American Greatness, July 21, 2023 “What does [Obama] offer? First and foremost: his face. Think of it as the most effective potential re-branding of the United States since Reagan. Such a re-branding is not trivial – it’s central to an effective war strategy …” He promised his presidency would fundamentally transform America. […]
Bob Goldberg Jewish Journal, Mar. 22, 2023 “The woke army successfully identified Israel as the leading cause of oppression worldwide and enshrined anti-Zionists as the core of CRT doctrine and activity.” To understand why undermining Israel is central to the woke agenda, read “The Woke Army: The Red-Green Alliance That is Destroying America’s Freedom,” a recently […]

Israel Kasnett JNS, July 17, 2023 “… the Supreme Court has invented new legal grounds to review the reasonableness of government actions and even to disqualify government appointments.” Israel’s Supreme Court is either under attack or undergoing necessary reform, depending on who you ask. While there is talk of shelving the larger judicial reform package […]
Michael Starr Jerusalem Post, July 23, 2023 “… when the reform acts as a trigger for all the other aspects of the government’s agenda, it’s difficult to address the actual reform debate.” The protests against the government’s judicial reform have been confusing from the beginning, with several complicated legal provisions at the crux of the debate.

Ruth Marks Eglash Jewish Insider, July 19, 2023 “With little to no constructive dialogue between supporters and opponents of the Netanyahu government’s designs for the judiciary, it’s difficult to identify any immediate path to ending this zero-sum game, which will continue to threaten Israel’s internal cohesion and cast the issue of America’s friendship for […]

David Wurmser Israel Hayom, July 19, 2023 “Given how dearly the Biden team held isolating Netanyahu and focusing blame for US-Israeli tensions solely on him, a visit by Netanyahu – connecting directly with the American people, being feted in Congress and filling the airwaves – could be disastrous for the US administration’s strategy.” US […]
