Moshe Cohen-Eliya Law & Liberty, Mar. 4, 2024 “What explains the transfer of power from elected representative institutions to the judiciary in Israel?” In early 2024 and at the height of the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, the Israeli Supreme Court published the most important ruling in its history. By a narrow majority of 8 to […]

“To me, bringing the Accords to bear as an organizing framework for reconstituting Gaza is what the Abraham Accords were conceived for. They are supposed to meet that kind of challenge and purpose. They’re the antidote to the persistent dysfunction of radicalism seizing the Middle East by the short hairs and giving it perpetual whiplash.” – J.E. Dyer […]
J.E. Dyer The Optimistic Conservative, Jan.27, 2025 “I’ve been expecting him to invoke the Abraham Accords in relation to the war in Gaza, because that’s his foundational commitment for U.S. policy in the Middle East.” There’s no question President Trump disappointed a whole lot of people and lost a lot of momentum with some supporters […]
Khaled Abu Toameh Gatestone, Jan. 27, 2025 “The Qataris do not want the PA in the Gaza Strip to rein in Hamas and other terrorist groups, or to prevent attacks against Israel. Instead, they want the PA to act as a front to maintain Hamas’s hold on power — as a cover for keeping Hamas […]
Park MacDougald and Adam Lehrer The Scroll, Jan. 24, 2025 “Iran will hopefully make a deal, and if they don’t make a deal, that’s okay too,” combined with Trump’s expressed wish that Israel not have to resort to a strike (i.e., leaving the option open), is at the very least preferable to the Obama-Biden version of Iran […]

Michael R. Gordon WSJ, Jan. 26, 2025 “It’s an interesting opening gambit, but it’s hard to imagine it having much traction as an idea.” President Trump’s Saturday night proposal that Palestinians vacate a devastated Gaza marked a sharp break with his predecessor and introduced a contentious new initiative into his unfolding Middle East diplomatic plans. Trump said […]

Citations de la semaine: “Le travail commence. Nous avons gagné, mais maintenant nous devons les ramener à la maison. Certaines des personnes ici présentes sont d’anciens otages. Ce n’est pas une bonne situation. Les trois jeunes femmes qui sont rentrées chez elles ont été blessées. L’une d’entre elles a eu les doigts arrachés. Elle […]
“In the eight decades since the Holocaust, the growing trend toward the universalization of the Holocaust has long since gotten out of hand. Scholars, self-styled “human rights” organizations and others eager to make use of the historical suffering of the Jewish people for their own purposes have seized on the Nazi campaign to exterminate the […]
Jacob Howland Unherd, Jan. 27, 2025 “Political opportunism and widespread antisemitism have distorted the way the Holocaust is remembered.” When Soviet soldiers liberated Auschwitz 80 years ago today, on 27 January 1945, they found only 7,000 gravely ill and dying inmates. The SS had left them behind when they hastily abandoned the camp for Germany […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Jan. 26, 2025 “… these commemorations are not assisting in educating the world about where tolerance of Jew-hatred leads.” In the 20 years since it was created by a vote in the U.N. General Assembly in 2005, International Holocaust Remembrance Day has become a staple of the world community’s calendar. It […]
Deborah Fineblum JNS, Jan. 22, 2025 “Survivors went about starting new lives with their bare hands. At the end of the day, faced with so much betrayal, loss and death, the survivors chose life.” David Frankel was 8 on the cold December night in 1944 when his mother told him to run quickly from her […]
Ruth R. Wisse WSJ, Jan. 23, 2025 “This war against the Jews isn’t like the last. While Nazism’s racial attack on alleged inferiors could never claim the moral high ground, the inversion that defines Zionism as racism mobilizes worldwide coalitions in institutions that support jihad as anticolonial justice.” Poland’s Deputy Foreign Minister Władysław Bartoszewski did […]
