Walter Russel Mead WSJ, July 25, 2022 “If the U.S. is going to develop an effective response to this combination of strategic threats, our political leaders will have to move beyond finger pointing and blame games over the fate of the JCPOA.” No matter what you call it, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action—JCPOA […]

WEEKLY QUOTES “The willingness to use your own people as human shields in terrorism and as props in a PR war is a win-win situation for the Palestinians and is exploited by Iranian-backed Islamic Jihad and Hamas, among other terrorist organizations. While Israel needs to maintain its policy of trying to minimize casualties of innocent […]

Is the Jewish Democratic Council Really Jewish – or Just Democrats?: Alan Dershowitz, Gatestone Institute, Aug. 3, 2022 Religious Liberty Divides American Jews: Nathan Lewin, WSJ, July 7, 2022 Whatever Happened to the ‘Pro-Jewish’ Left?: Samuel J. Abrams and Jack Wertheimer, Tablet, June 24, 2022 Jewish Education Should Have ‘Shoulds’; Benjamin M. Jacobs and Shuki […]

Nathan Lewin WSJ, July 7, 2022 “Orthodox Jews can now push to establish local laws like those nullified by the court’s 1971 decision, which would provide important funding to Jewish day schools and other religious educational options.” In Kennedy v. Bremerton, a decision upholding a public-school football coach’s right to kneel in prayer after a game, […]
Alan Dershowitz Gatestone Institute, Aug. 3, 2022 “It is difficult to imagine any other ethnic or other group of Democrats — Blacks, Arabs, gays — that would not even mention the issues of direct concern to that group at a large fundraiser. Why are Jewish Democrats different?” As President Joe Biden was returning from his […]
Benjamin M. Jacobs and Shuki Taylor Sapir Journal, Vol. 6, Summer 2022 “The universalization of Jewish education is built on the premise that a program can be everything to everyone. But trying to be everything to everyone often results in being nothing to anyone.” Educational systems generally favor stability over change. Most educational efforts […]
Samuel J. Abrams and Jack Wertheimer Tablet, June 24, 2022 “Levels of religious conviction, denominational identities, worship service attendance, and other expressions and measures of religiosity correlate with how most Americans vote in elections and identify politically in surveys.” It is a truism among many observers of the current socio-political scene that politics has […]

Why Israel May Want a Ceasefire, And Why It Might Not Be […]
David Horovitz Times of Israel, Aug. 7, 2022 “… the Israeli leadership did not claim it was going to destroy Islamic Jihad. It did not assert that it would put a halt to Gaza rocket fire. And it has determinedly sought to avoid drawing Hamas into the conflict.” Three days into Operation Breaking Dawn, […]
Yoav Limor JNS, Aug. 7, 2022 “… as the hits on the organization’s members increase PIJ will be forced to recalculate, after also failing to impose a new equation of deterrence creating a linkage between arrests in Judea and Samaria and threats from Gaza.” Israel may have registered a long list of successes so […]
Oded Granot Israel Hayom, Aug. 7, 2022 “It’s safe to assume that Hamas is not happy in a situation where it is being accused of sitting on the fence.” The terrorist leaders of Hezbollah in the north and the Palestinians in the south have a strong affinity for issuing menacing equations. Nasrallah’s latest was […]
Herb Keinon Jerusalem Post, Aug. 7, 2022 “Hamas, not Islamic Jihad, has overall authority for the life of the citizens in Gaza. It wants to be the one to decide when to launch a campaign against Israel.” The pictures coming out of Tehran the last few days went a long way toward explaining events […]
