Daniel Edelson Ynet News, Aug. 5, 2024 “A significant portion is dedicated to American cooperation, particularly President Joe Biden’s, with the “genocide.” It also highlights Republican lawmakers, like Max Miller, a former aide to Donald Trump, who said Gaza would become a “parking lot.” After heated debate, Wikipedia editors renamed ‘Allegations of genocide in the […]
Adi Nirman Israel Hayom, July 29, 2024 “Was 9/11 carried out by al-Qaida militants or terrorists? Would you describe the Taliban merely as an “Islamic movement”? Terrorists are terrorists, it doesn’t “depend on the context.” When searching for “Hamas” on Google, the world’s unlimited information source, the first description that appears is “Palestinian militant group.” […]

Natasha Hausdorff, The Telegraph, July 20, 2024 The virulently anti-Israel Advisory Opinion handed down by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) on Friday, arguing Israel’s “policies and practices” have breached international law, is just that: an opinion. It does not have legally binding status. The value of that opinion is ultimately undermined by the weakness of […]
Robert Nicholson, WSJ, July 21, 2024 In a gross miscarriage of justice that surprised no one, the main judicial body of the United Nations has attacked Jewish self-determination in Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria.
