Yaakov Lappin JNS, June 9, 2024 “The scale of the rehearsals was as large as the [1976] Entebbe operation—[in terms of] the models we used, as well as the way in which we trained, and we had to make sure that everything was done simultaneously,” he said. Saturday’s hostage rescue operation in central Gaza could not […]

Amir Bar Shalom Times of Israel, June 9, 2024 “The question now is how Saturday’s successful rescue will affect the negotiations to release the 120 hostages still held by Hamas in Gaza. Right now, these talks are on hold as all sides wait for Hamas’s response to the latest Israeli proposal for a deal, approved […]
Seth Mandel Commentary Magazine, June 7, 2024 “Hamas showed reporters shrouds and told them what was in them, and the reporters dutifully repeated what they were told.” Now it can be told! Hamas lied that people died. The Associated Press has an analysis up today that reveals—I hope you’re sitting down for this—that the Hamas/UN casualty […]

Seth J. Frantzman Jerusalem Post, June 1, 2024 “The current ceasefire plan is a plan to keep Hamas in power. The result will be that Hamas will return to running most of Gaza in the coming years and the reconstruction effort will likely empower Hamas as it has in the past.” US President Joe […]
Daniel Henninger WSJ, June 5, 2024 “Rarely discussed, because it is so incredible, is the assumption that any successor Israeli government would allow the Sinwar-led Hamas to emerge intact, in Gaza, with whatever weaponry it has left.” As reports come out of the Biden administration about cease-fire talks between Israel and Hamas, bear in mind […]
Caroline Glick JNS, May 31, 2024 “… by undermining Israel’s operation in Rafah, the administration is protecting Hamas from destruction while effectively criminalizing Israel’s war to protect itself from further aggression against Hamas.” The most basic function of all governments is to provide for the collective defense of the governed. The most basic foundation of […]
Gabby Deutch Jewish Insider, June 5, 2024 “… his frequent criticism of Israel’s military tactics does not go far enough to appease left-wing Democrats unhappy with Biden’s overall support for Israel; meanwhile, his outreach to the anti-Israel segment of the party irritates Jewish voters and pro-Israel moderates.” On Tuesday morning, Time magazine published the full transcript of its recent Oval […]

James Woudhuysen Spiked, June 2, 2024 “Nazism, then, was not just beaten by America’s GDP. It was also undone by its own totalitarianism. Conversely, democracy, though severely constrained by the war, benefitted the Allies.” Shortly after midnight on 6 June 1944, Operation Neptune, otherwise known as D-Day, began. Thousands upon thousands of planes and ships bombed […]
Tu Thanh Ha Globe And Mail, June 5, 2024 “In the morning, he could see bodies around him.
