Michael Oren The Free Press, Aug. 15, 2024 “Hamas head Yahya Sinwar wants nothing more than a regional conflict that would draw the remaining Israeli troops from Gaza and vastly increase international pressure on the Jewish state.” For more than two weeks, Israelis have been waiting for war. Immediately after the July 31 assassination of […]

Seth Mandel Commentary, Aug. 15, 2024 “Essentially, Mideast regional diplomacy is a relic from another era.” On the surface, it makes sense that Amos Hochstein spent the lead-up to this week’s ceasefire negotiations in Lebanon. Hochstein, a presidential advisor on energy, is also President Biden’s envoy to most multi-party negotiations involving the U.S. and Lebanon. Hezbollah […]
Louis Rene Beres JNS, Aug. 12, 2024 “What should Israeli strategic planners conclude? In part, at least, the answer depends on their view of Iran’s reciprocal judgments of Israel’s leaders.” During its impending war with Iran, Israel’s overriding objective should be to keep that jihadist enemy non-nuclear. The best way to meet this objective will […]

SHABBAT READING The Shema: Instructions for a Romance with YHWH: Prof. Rabbi Reuven Kimelman, The Torah.com, Aug. 11, 2022 — The Shema[1] is taken from the book of Deuteronomy, and named after the first word of the passage: דברים ו:ד שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל יְ־הוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ יְ־הוָה אֶחָד. Deut 6:4 Hear, O Israel! YHWH is our God, YHWH alone. Following this […]
Daniel Edelson Ynet News, Aug. 5, 2024 “A significant portion is dedicated to American cooperation, particularly President Joe Biden’s, with the “genocide.” It also highlights Republican lawmakers, like Max Miller, a former aide to Donald Trump, who said Gaza would become a “parking lot.” After heated debate, Wikipedia editors renamed ‘Allegations of genocide in the […]
Adi Nirman Israel Hayom, July 29, 2024 “Was 9/11 carried out by al-Qaida militants or terrorists? Would you describe the Taliban merely as an “Islamic movement”? Terrorists are terrorists, it doesn’t “depend on the context.” When searching for “Hamas” on Google, the world’s unlimited information source, the first description that appears is “Palestinian militant group.” […]
Yaakov Amidror Jerusalem Post, Aug. 13, 2024 “The more the IDF succeeds in hitting the military side, the easier it will be to target the civilian system that will float to the surface.” Recently, CNN published an in-depth article on the war in Gaza, claiming that while the IDF dealt a severe blow to Hamas, the organization is […]
Andrew Fox Tablet, Aug. 12, 2024 “… many Western analysts are incapable of seeing the conflict through anything but the lens of post-9/11 operations.” There is desperation in Western media to declare Israel’s campaign in Gaza, Operation Swords of Iron, a failure. Over the past several months, there has been a steady supply of […]

‘So Unimaginable and So Abhorrent’: Federal Judge Orders UCLA to Stop Aiding Activists Enforcing Jew-Free Zones on Campus: Zach Kessel, National Review, Aug. 14, 2024 The AAUP Abandons Academic Freedom: Cary Nelson, SPME, Aug. 13, 2024 The Boycott Against Israel Is Spreading into New Corners of Society: Anat Peled and Carrie Keller-Lynn, SPME, July 10, 2024 War College: How […]
Zach Kessel National Review, Aug. 14, 2024 “Shame on UCLA for letting antisemitic thugs terrorize Jews on campus. Today’s ruling says that UCLA’s policy of helping antisemitic activists target Jews is not just morally wrong but a gross constitutional violation. UCLA should stop fighting the Constitution and start protecting Jews on campus.” A Los […]
Cary Nelson SPME, Aug. 13, 2024 “It would be perhaps the first time in history that reflective philosopher kings alone have organized mass action.” Last week, the American Association of University Professors set aside its hundred-year defence of academic freedom by opening the door to any number of individually initiated academic boycotts. Individual students and […]
