“The Arab States do not want to solve the refugee problem. They want to keep it as an open sore, as an affront to the United Nations and as a weapon against Israel. Arab leaders don’t give a damn whether the refugees live or die.” — Col. (Res,) Dr. Raphael G. Bouchnik-Chen, OFFERING A […]

Col. (Res,) Dr. Raphael G. Bouchnik-Chen BESA, Feb. 13, 2025 “The documented evidence shows that the Arab countries, since the very beginning of the Palestinian refugees’ tragedy, have never been interested in any kind of solution to the refugee problem but solely in their return to their homes within Israel.” President Donald Trump has overturned […]
Rory Jones WSJ, Feb. 14, 2025 “Because Gaza has changed hands so often, the legal framework governing individual ownership of the land is a knot of British, Egyptian and Palestinian laws.” President Trump wants the U.S. to control the Gaza Strip, but it isn’t even clear who owns it. Determining that might be among the most complicated territorial […]
Nadav Shragai Israel Hayom, Feb. 14, 2025 “… if it were possible and practical – I would support it. It’s a better solution than others.” Two Gaza migrants, Talal al-Damsi and Khaled Abdul Qassab, entered the Israeli Embassy in Asuncion, Paraguay, in May 1970, where they fatally shot the ambassador’s secretary, Edna Peer.

Reem Cohen INSS Insight No. 1948, Feb. 17, 2025 “The fact that the initiative originates from the United States rather than Israel reduces legal complexities and could make it easier to gain international support.” The Gaza Strip is one of the most densely populated and complex areas in the world, home to over 2.1 million […]

“To me, bringing the Accords to bear as an organizing framework for reconstituting Gaza is what the Abraham Accords were conceived for. They are supposed to meet that kind of challenge and purpose. They’re the antidote to the persistent dysfunction of radicalism seizing the Middle East by the short hairs and giving it perpetual whiplash.” – J.E. Dyer […]
J.E. Dyer The Optimistic Conservative, Jan.27, 2025 “I’ve been expecting him to invoke the Abraham Accords in relation to the war in Gaza, because that’s his foundational commitment for U.S. policy in the Middle East.” There’s no question President Trump disappointed a whole lot of people and lost a lot of momentum with some supporters […]

Michael R. Gordon WSJ, Jan. 26, 2025 “It’s an interesting opening gambit, but it’s hard to imagine it having much traction as an idea.” President Trump’s Saturday night proposal that Palestinians vacate a devastated Gaza marked a sharp break with his predecessor and introduced a contentious new initiative into his unfolding Middle East diplomatic plans. Trump said […]

Yaakov Lappin Times of Israel, Jan. 22, 2025 “Right now, the only realistic option for preventing Hamas’s resurgence is a temporary Israeli military administration.” As a ceasefire and hostage deal unfold in the Gaza Strip, and the IDF chief of staff and Southern Command chief announce their resignations, the Israeli security cabinet faces a critical […]

Gary Willig Israel National News, Oct. 20, 2024 “It must also be remembered that all of the good that has been accomplished in the last month never would have happened if a ceasefire had been reached beforehand.” The month from September 17 through October 16 2024 may well be the most fateful and impactful […]
