Citation de la semaine: « chaque mort de civil était une tragédie, mais que pour le Hamas, c’était une stratégie: “Ils utilisent sciemment les civils comme des boucliers humains. Nous avons envoyé des milliers d’affiches. Nous faisons tout pour évacuer les civils des zones de conflit, et le Hamas fait tout pour les laisser dans […]
John Leicester and Sylvie Corbet and Danica Kirka KCen, June 4, 2024 “You don’t want other people to go through the same thing. Because I’ve seen a lot of these boys that never even made the beach, believe me. And we were all 18, 19 years old.” Under their feet, the sands of Omaha Beach, […]

MAKING THE CASE WATCH: Webinar | The CCP’s Invasion of Israel: How Xi Set Fire to the Middle East – and Why: Committee on the Present Dangers of China, May 27, 2024 — Spain, Ireland and Norway formally recognized a non-existent state of “Palestine” today. They thus indulged in the sort of European virtue-signaling that has […]
Evan Stubbs Yale Journal of International Affairs, May 23, 2024 “While previously opposed to bilateralism, dramatic upheavals in the geopolitical world order in the early 1970s left both Israel and Taiwan more vulnerable and isolated than ever, creating favorable conditions for pariah state cooperation.” On December 29, 2021, Taiwan’s vice president (now the […]
Mark Leonard Foreign Affairs, Jan. 8, 2024 “By aligning with majority opinion in such countries as Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, and South Africa, China can present itself as an alternative to what it sees as a warmongering, hegemonic, and hypocritical America.” Over the past year, as Western diplomats shuttled frantically from one end of […]

In fact, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi described Israel’s response to the terrorist attacks on October 14 as being “beyond the scope of self-defense” and requested Israel to “cease its collective punishment of the […]
Simone Lipkind Council on Foreign Relations, Jan. 25, 2024 “Given China’s response to the war in Gaza, Bibi’s public efforts to revive Israel’s relationship with China during periods of strife with the United States now appear short sighted.” Leading up to Hamas’s October 7 attack, Israel was attempting to manage great power competition much […]

Charlie Covit WSJ, May 16, 2024 “Support for Mr. Tettey-Tamaklo belies the protesters’ denials of antisemitism.” Harvard’s anti-Israel protesters created a martyr this past school year. “Reinstate Elom to his proctor position,” read a list of demands first published in November and posted across campus for the rest of the year. “Over 4,000 people have […]
Douglas Belkin WSJ, May 16, 2024 “The report paints a picture of an overwhelmed and indecisive administration, which failed to apply university rules to protesters engaged in antisemitic behavior.” Harvard University was slow to react to a wave of hostility against Jewish students last fall and ignored recommendations from an advisory group it created to address rising […]
Jessica McCann, The Harvard Gazette, May 28, 2024 “… we now live in a world of extreme political polarization. And that means both that people tend to react to University statements (again, intact or distorted) in a polarized way, and also put pressure on the University to speak or not speak in polarized ways.” In […]
