WEEKLY QUOTES “I strongly condemn the cruel and violent rampage against the residents of Huwara yesterday. This is not our way. It is criminal violence against innocents. It harms the State of Israel; it harms us; it harms settlers. It harms security forces who are busy searching for those […]

Timeline: How The Covid Lab Leak Origin Story Went From ‘Conspiracy Theory’ To Government Debate: Marisa Dellatto, Forbes, Feb. 26, 2023 — The U.S. Energy Department reportedly became the second government agency Sunday to conclude the coronavirus probably leaked from a lab rather than jumping from animals to humans naturally, a “low confidence” conclusion that lends more attention […]
Alyssia Finley WSJ, Feb. 26, 2023 “The concept of natural immunity isn’t scientifically controversial, yet it was disparaged by public-health officials who associated it with opposition to lockdowns and the Great Barrington Declaration in autumn 2020.” The Lancet medical journal this month published a review of 65 studies that concluded prior infection with Covid—i.e., […]
John Tierney The Free Press, Feb. 27, 2023 “There is just no evidence that they make any difference. Full stop.” We now have the most authoritative estimate of the value provided by wearing masks during the pandemic: approximately zero. The most rigorous and extensive review of the scientific literature concludes that neither […]
Smriti Mallapaty Nature, Feb. 14, 2023 “The researchers concluded that the virus was probably shed by humans, but Rasmussen and others are keen to take a closer look at the raw data, which included swabs from a defeathering machine, to see whether they can identify animal species.” The World Health Organization (WHO) […]

Amir Taheri Gatestone Institute, Feb. 12, 2023 “The idea this time was to let the “main players,” that is to say Russia, Turkey and Iran, involved in the Syrian psycho-drama, write a new constitution for the failed state and persuade everyone to sing from the same hymn sheet.” Since 2019 when the Syrian tragedy […]
Vivian Salama and Stephen Kalin WSJ, Feb. 8, 2023 “Humanitarian aid that goes through Damascus has been weaponized for years.” The U.S.’s longstanding refusal to engage with Syria’s government, along with limited access to areas hit by catastrophic earthquakes in Turkey and Syria, has raised fears that Syrian victims could be denied lifesaving aid. As images […]
Zachary Laub Council on Foreign Relations, Feb. 14, 2023 “The Assads presided over a system that was not just autocratic but kleptocratic, doling out patronage to bind Syrians to the regime.” Twelve years after protesters in Syria first demonstrated against the four-decade rule of the Assad family, hundreds of thousands of Syrians have been […]
Yochanan Visser Israel Today, Feb. 26, 2023 “Iran further stepped up its psychological war against Israel by publishing a photo of a ballistic missile with the Hebrew text: Mavet L’Yisrael (Death to Israel) written on it.” Very early Sunday morning last week residents of northeastern Israel again woke up to the sound of low-flying fighter jets.
