Ariel Kahana Israel Hayom, Sept. 30, 2024 “I acknowledge Hamas’ planning for Oct. 7, likely supported by another state. But the attack wasn’t worse only because the Israelis have been fighting back ever since. They only respond to force” As we began our Zoom call, John Spencer made a statement that should resonate globally. […]
Gerald Baker WSJ, Sept. 30, 2024 “The only appropriate responses to Israel’s gallantry, fortitude and skill from us—its nominal allies, especially in the U.S.—are “thank you” and “how can we help?”” How will we ever repay the debt we owe Israel? What the Jewish state has done in the past year—for its own defense, but […]
Joe Adam George National Post, Sept. 29, 2024 “Undeniably, dismantling Hezbollah is not just an Israeli priority, but also in the long-term interests of the Middle East and the West. Yet, many western countries like Canada and France fail to support Israel’s extraordinary efforts against Hezbollah.” A phenomenal 10-day military operation by Israel against the terrorist group […]
Ambassador (ret.) Yoram Ettinger The Ettinger Report, Sept. 30, 2024 “Israel performs as the battle-tested research and development center of the US defense and aerospace industry, as well as the US Armed Forces, similar to its role as the site of research and development centers of some 250 US high tech giants.” Israel’s war on Hezbollah, Hamas and Houthi terrorists […]

Glick, JNS, Sept. 30, 2024 –– Israelis are almost unanimous in their support for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision not to coordinate the airstrike that targeted Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah with the Biden administration in advance of its commission, […]
Edward Luttwack Unherd, Oct. 1, 2024 “Most of this cash comes from a single source: oil.” Through its early history — but not for the last four decades and more — the main threats to Israel’s security came from its Arab neighbours. That resulted in several wars against Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq. But […]
J.E. Dyer The Optimistic Conservative, Sept. 29, 2024 “As I’ve observed numerous times, the “ceasefire” leading to “two-state solution” is a solution in search of a problem. It’s a pushed narrative. It’s not analysis. It’s not self-evident in 2024 that it’s the answer to any question or problem.” This will be just a few […]
Mehul Srivastava, James Shotter, Charles Clover and Raya Jabali Financial Times, Sept. 29, 2024 “Hizbollah did not disappear in the last 10 days — we’ve damaged and degraded them and they are in the stage of chaos and mourning. But they still have lots of capabilities that are very threatening.” In its 2006 war […]
