Tovah Lazaroff Jerusalem Post, Aug. 5, 2024 “Escalation is in no one’s interest. It’s not in the interest of any one country. It’s not in the interest of the region, and it’s certainly not in the interest of the millions of civilians who just want to live their lives free from violence and conflict.” […]

WHAT’S NEXT? Israel Brings Deterrence Back to the War on Terror: Walter Russell Mead, WSJ, Aug. 1, 2024 — Coming on the heels of strikes that killed Hamas military commander Mohammed Deif in Khan Younis and Hezbollah military commander Fuad Shukr in Beirut, the assassination in Tehran of Hamas’s political leader, Ismail Haniyeh, sent clear messages to Hezbollah, Hamas and, most important, […]
Jonathan Spyer The Spectator, Aug. 3, 2024 “Is Israel prepared to up the ante to the point of regional war?” Following the killings of Hezbollah’s Fuad Shukr and Hamas’s Ismail Haniyeh, Israel and the Middle East are poised and waiting for the next move. The two killings represent a significant humiliation for the Iran-led […]
Yonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, Aug. 5, 2024 “Taking out Haniyeh while he was in Tehran was an unmistakable signal to disabuse Iran of the notion that it has immunity when it uses proxies to harm Israel.” In a dizzying three weeks, Israel has assassinated three titans of terror (though only officially taking credit for […]
J.E. Dyer The Optimistic Conservative, Aug. 2, 2024 “Although there is no reason to expect the current U.S. administration, which for rhetorical convenience I will call “Petunia,” to take any effective action in the Middle East crises of 2024, there are actions the U.S. could take that would do some good.” As usual, late-breaking news […]

Yaakov Lappin JNS, Aug. 1, 2024 “Israel is basically implementing here the Munich Olympics revenge [program] that took about a decade to assassinate all those who were involved in the Munich ’72 massacre. So Israel opted to do the same to all these that were involved in the 7 October attack, and the killing, burning, […]

Brendan O’Neill Spiked, July 31, 2024 “It was Haniyeh and his movement that ‘escalated’ tensions in the Middle East when they green-lighted the rape, kidnap and murder of more than a thousand people in Israel on 7 October. Assassinating the racist killers of Jews is not escalation – it’s justice.” Forget ‘centrist dads’, there’s […]
Daniel Pipes WSJ, July 31, 2024 “For nearly 10 months, Mr. Netanyahu equivocated between victory and hostages.” Israel followed two opposite policies toward Hamas since Oct. 7: destroy the organization and make a deal with it. This unfortunate two-track approach resulted in many costs to Israel. The killing of Ismail Haniyeh on Wednesday perhaps marks […]
Lazar Berman Times of Israel, Aug. 1, 2024 “The leader of Hamas abroad, [hitherto] Haniyeh, plays a central role in the mobilization of resources for Hamas, in representing the organization, in political outreach, in building its military power. In fact, this is what transforms Hamas from a local terrorist organization into a movement with regional […]
