Dov Lieber and Aaron Boxerman WSJ, Jan. 4, 2023 “Israeli settlers say that even though they pay taxes like other Israeli citizens, they receive spotty cellular access, drive on poorer roads and face additional bureaucracy because of the geopolitical sensitivities of the West Bank.“ Israel’s new finance minister, the leader of the country’s […]
Josh Hasten JNS, Jan. 4, 2023 “… a game of cat and mouse has taken place since that time between the IDF and former residents and supporters, with the Homesh Yeshivah operating inside caravans and tents on the site, and troops sent in time and time again over the years by the Defense Ministry’s […]
David M. Weinberg Israel Hayom, Jan. 8, 2023 “The squatters have had more than 10 years of recourse to Israeli courts all the way up to the Supreme Court, and even that liberal top court has cleared the way for determined Israeli action.” The unjustified wild reaction to Minster of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir’s important […]
Jenny Aharon Jerusalem Post, Dec. 28, 2023 “… the EU has found a way to fund construction in Area C without violating the Oslo Accords, or so we are tricked to believe.” According to a European Union leaked document, it is planning to help the Palestinians take over Area C while it has always claimed […]

I Will Risk My Licence to Escape Social Media Re-Education: Jordan Peterson, National Post, Jan. 4, 2022 Will Jordan Peterson Lose His License for Wrongthink?: Neeraja Deshpande, The Free Press, Jan. 6, 2023 Defamatory Charges Against Jordan Peterson Should Be ‘Thrown Out Like a Dead Mouse’: Conrad Black, National Post, Jan. 7, 2023 What’s Happening to Jordan Peterson […]
Jordan Peterson National Post, Jan. 4, 2022 “Every single accusation is not only independent of my clinical practice, but explicitly political — and not only that: unidirectionally explicitly political.” The practice of psychology in Ontario, and in many other North American and western jurisdictions, is subject to regulation by “professional colleges” — essentially governmental organizations […]
Neeraja Deshpande The Free Press, Jan. 6, 2023 “The college’s statement, then, is not a message to Peterson, but a message to other would-be dissenters: Comply with our politics, or risk losing your livelihood.” Have you seen the “men will literally do X instead of going to therapy” meme? It’s funny: Men will literally join […]
Howard Levitt Financial Post, Jan. 6, 2023 “Given that the college had the temerity to take on a person with such public support, one can only imagine how many psychologists with the wrong political opinions it has previously cowed into submission.” Given how hard Jordan Peterson has worked (and continues to work), it is difficult […]
Conrad Black National Post, Jan. 7, 2023 “I will leave it to others to determine the extent to which Justin Trudeau is responsible for this repressive and ignorant climate and the totalitarian muzzling and stifling of dissent in places that have traditionally been among society’s most reliable centres of independent policy discussion — universities and learned […]

ENOUGH BLAME TO GO AROUND DEBATE: Does the Supreme Court Have Too Much Power?: Caroline Glick, JNS, Dec. 20, 2022 — The incoming Netanyahu government’s intention to enact reforms of the legal systems to limit the powers of the Supreme Court has stirred up a lot of controversies. In this week’s episode of the “Caroline Glick Show,” […]
Yonatan Green The Times of Israel, Jan. 8, 2023 “Far from purely partisan or self-serving, genuine criticism of these flaws has been consistent (and consistently growing) since the 1980s and has been forcefully advanced by some of Israel’s leading legal scholars.” Anyone following the news in Israel can hardly avoid the frenzied – yet predictable […]
