Epoch Times, Nov. 6, 2023 “The fact that we now see hundreds of people in the streets rallying in support of Hamas’ barbarity is no surprise since these groups have operated without impunity.” Canada and other countries have seen a steady stream of protests against Israel and in support of Palestine since the […]
Rich Lowry National Review, Oct. 27, 2023 “If Gaza were equally Westernized, it would be worrying about whether it’s overbuilding seaside real estate rather than having to get water and electricity from the neighboring country its governing authority — a savage terror group — is trying to destroy.” The cataract of anti-Israel sentiment on college […]
