John Ivison National Post, July 30, 2025 “It makes no sense to have pre-emptively handed over a bargaining chip that could increase the chances of a lasting resolution.” In a late afternoon press conference in Ottawa, Mark Carney announced that Canada intends to break with 75 years of foreign policy tradition and unilaterally recognize a Palestinian […]

Giles Fraser Unherd, July 31, 2025 “What is particularly shabby about Starmer’s announcement is that he is playing with people’s lives — with Palestinian and Israeli ones — not because he believes recognising a state of Palestine is the right thing to do at this moment, but because of his own troubled domestic political situation.” […]
Gilad Erdan Israel Hayom, July 31, 2025 “The battle for perception is not a secondary engagement in scope. It determines whether Israel will retain the legitimacy to defend itself in future wars.” The recent announcements by several European countries of their intention to recognize a Palestinian state come as no surprise. These declarations are the […]
Noah Rothman National Review, July 29, 2025 “… neither the U.N. nor its supporters place any onus on Hamas — the supposed governing authority in Gaza — for its people’s welfare.” First, there was the “imminent” famine in Gaza of which the United Nations’ Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) warned back in March of […]

“There may be increasing hunger in Gaza, but to blame Israel for this is grotesque. The World Health Organization’s director, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, has accused the Israelis of an aid blockade. This is totally untrue.” — Melanie Phillips *** HOLDING STRONG Sa’ar Defiant as International Pressure Mounts to End Gaza War: David Isaac, JNS, July […]

“The question then is whether the international pressure the crisis has generated—combined with the war weariness of Israelis and eagerness of the Trump administration for a deal that it can claim as a diplomatic victory for the president—will be enough to force Israel and the United States to return to the talks, and give Hamas […]
Melanie Phillips JNS, July 24, 2025 “… there are far darker impulses at work—the deep desire to prove that the Jews are bad, that they have a unique and destructive power over world events, that they can never be victims.” Over the past few days, anti-Israel and anti-Jewish feeling has been ratcheted up into an […]
*** Brendan O’Neill Spiked, July 29, 2025 “He is sacrificing an ally at the altar of narrow self-interest.” With ‘allies’ like Keir Starmer, who needs enemies? Today the PM said Britain will recognise Palestine unless Israel agrees to a ceasefire in Gaza. This, truly, is a new low for this government. It is moral blackmail masquerading as […]
Jeffery Herp Times of Israel, July 22, 2025 “The governments expressing concern about the impact of the war on Gazans would help bring about that result by calling on Hamas’ leaders to surrender.” In an over 3,000-word opinion piece in the New York Times of July 15, Brown University professor Omer Bartov concluded that Israel […]
Lt.-Col (res.) Maurice Hirsch and Abby Notkin Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs, July 23, 2025 “Alongside the demand to release the terrorists already convicted, Hamas is also demanding the release of the terrorists who participated in the October 7 massacre and were arrested at the scenes of their atrocities or thereafter.” Kidnapped during […]

Matti Friedman The Free Press, July 27, 2025 “You might have thought that hunger in Gaza would work against Hamas, forcing the group to have mercy on its own civilians and accept the ceasefire desired by Israel and the U.S. and currently under discussion in Qatar. But Hamas knows that the opposite is true.” A […]

Khaled Abu Toameh Gatestone Institute, July 28, 2025 “Hamas has no problem lying to Trump and US envoy Steve Witkoff, as they have probably already figured out.” On October 24, 2023, senior Hamas official Ghazi Hamad threatened that his Iran-backed terror group would carry out more massacres against Israelis — time and again until Israel was […]
