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 […]
Yoni Ben Menachem Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs, Sept. 29, 2024 “Hassan Nasrallah failed to grasp that Israel is fighting for its survival in the region, and its citizens have no intention of leaving.” Since Hassan Nasrallah opened his war against Israel on October 8, he made a series of strategic miscalculations that […]

Lee Smith Tablet, Sept. 27, 2024 “Wars are won by killing the enemy, above all, those who inspire their people to kill yours.” Friday evening in the Levant, Israel targeted buildings in the southern suburbs of Beirut killing Hezbollah General Secretary Hassan Nasrallah. This operation represents a dramatic shift in Israeli strategy. Not only […]
Charles Lipson The Spectator World, October 2024 “Israel did not ask anyone’s permission to defend itself. Why bother? The Europeans have been feckless and are now overwhelmed by immigrants from the Middle East and North Africa. If they can’t save their own countries, how can they be expected to save Israel?” The killing of […]
Eli Lake The Free Press, Sept. 29, 2024 “Western leaders have responded with reticence. In this they have revealed their profound confusion about the enemy. It is not a nation-state, a terror group, or even an ideology. From Washington to Paris, they seem to believe the real enemy is escalation.” What Israel has managed […]
Lilach Shoval Israel Hayom, Sept. 28, 2024 “Everything we planned went out accurately, without hitches – not in the intelligence planning aspect, not in the planes, and not in the execution itself.” “We have three objectives: returning the hostages, dismantling Hamas, and safely bringing back the residents of the north. This remains our focus, despite […]
