Liat Collins Jerusalem Post, Aug. 25, 2024 “The perception of Netanyahu was that he was a complex and difficult-to-understand man – but that was the narrative of those who didn’t know him and didn’t work closely with him.

Gadi Taub JNS, Aug. 8, 2024 “There’s them, and there’s us. Them: A strange combination of nationalist fanatics, an ultra-Orthodox anti-Zionist leadership, corrupt, power-hungry people who breed those who will run over protesters. Less than 20% of the public. Us: All the rest who want to live in a normal Jewish-democratic state. There’s no need […]
Yisrael Medad JNS, Aug. 7, 2024 “Yair Golan, now the head of a new political party called the Democrats, suggested that “we should go to the Netanyahu residence, drag them outside, roll them in tar and feathers, and kick them out of town.” His interviewer felt the need to intervene and hurriedly commented, “You mean that metaphorically, […]

Gerard Baker WSJ, Aug. 26, 2024 “Its centerpiece was the semifictional self portrait of the presidential candidate herself.” You campaign in poetry. You govern in prose. Mario Cuomo’s adage has been updated and adapted by his successors in the modern Democratic Party. The duality they present to voters either side of an election is a […]
Tom Slater Spiked, Aug. 23, 2024 “Virtue-signalling, triangulation, bloodless managerialism – this has ruled over Democratic politics for a long time now. But identitarianism has made matters so much worse.” Say what you will about Kamala Harris, she can read from an autocue with the best of them. The vice-president turned nominee for president […]
David Samuels Unherd, Aug. 26, 2024 “All told, the Chicago Miracle, as it will doubtlessly be known, was a reality-fracturing magic act.” Making an elephant disappear is a notoriously difficult test of the magician’s art. Turning a flower girl into a duchess might be even harder to pull off. Convincing the world’s most powerful man […]
Matthew Continetti Commentary, September 2024 “ … there is no more binary issue in the world today than a democratic nation retaliating against a genocidal terrorist organization that rapes and murders innocents, hides behind hospitals and schools, and burrows underground. “ On July 30, Kamala Harris released the first TV ad of her presidential […]

Elliot Kaufman WSJ, Aug. 22, 2024 “ … the anti-Israel fanatics demand that Jews relinquish not so much the tenets of their religion as their dignity and the solidarity that sustains Jewish peoplehood.” A legal victory for Jewish students comes by way of an oversimplification of Judaism. Yet in the process, it stumbles on some […]
Barton Swain WSJ, Aug. 23, 2024 “Apart from the slogans, speakers didn’t call straightforwardly for the destruction of Israel and the wiping out of Israeli Jews, but only a fool could miss the intensely antisemitic purpose of the event.” Predictions were amiss that the 2024 Democratic National Convention would repeat the mayhem of its 1968 […]
Dexter Van Zile Focus on Western Islamism, Aug. 23, 2024 “Walz has a lot to answer for, but no one is going to ask him about it. The idea seems to be that you can’t say anything critical of Muslims without being accused of being an anti-Muslim radical, so people just ignore it. [Muslims] […]
