J.E. Dyer The Optimistic Conservative, July 27, 2024 “There is in any case no such thing as a “proportionate” response to having children at a recreational park blasted into bloody pieces.” This will be quick and focused. There is a lot else to say, but it’s more important to get these points out […]

Michael Oren Times of Israel, July 11, 2024 “Israel is losing the north, but the loss will not be of land alone. Endangered, too, is the state’s commitment to defend all of our citizens irrespective of their place of residence, to preserve our precious human and natural resources, and to deter our enemies.” In contrast […]

Yonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, July 10, 2024 “… the failure of deterrence with Hamas Gaza chief Yahya Sinwar does not mean deterrence never works and cannot work with Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah.” The conventional wisdom since late winter has been that war between Israel and Hezbollah is imminent and that there is no other way to […]
Judith Miller Tablet, July 16, 2024 “A 5-kilometer swatch of Israel in the north has effectively been rendered uninhabitable by Israel’s foes without occupation.” Israel faces a conundrum to which there is no easily discernible, sustainable solution: how best to counter the growing strategic threat posed by Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed Shiite terrorist group that runs […]

“The group has an arsenal of 200,000 rockets and missiles, a fleet of deadly drones, roughly 1,500 precision-guided munitions, and well-trained fighters. Some estimates suggest that Hezbollah’s power is tantamount to a midsize European army. The Lebanese Armed Forces can therefore never forcibly disarm, relocate, or restrain Hezbollah. That would certainly spark a civil war, […]
Jonathan Spyer, Middle East Forum, June 24, 2024 “Despite the efforts of both the US and France, progress in this area has been elusive. Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has made clear that his side is not currently seeking all-out war.” Tensions on Israel’s northern border are currently at their highest point since the outbreak […]

Yoni Ben Menachem Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, June 24, 2024 “Nasrallah’s goal is to ground Israeli aircraft to prevent them from conducting missions in Lebanon against mid- and long-range missile launchers.” Hizbullah, under the leadership of Hassan Nasrallah, is coordinating with Iran to open a new front against Israel in the Mediterranean Sea. The […]
David Daoud and Jonathan Schanzer The Dispatch, June 20, 2024 “… the international community’s fixation on futile deals has only whetted Hezbollah’s appetite for violence.” Let’s not mince words: The Middle East is on the precipice of the most destructive war of the region’s modern history. This war did not begin on October 7. It actually began […]
Yonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, June 24, 2024 “Rogue or not, Brown said what many American officials are authentically feeling and thinking right now, and that is why there will be no retraction.” It should be said from the outset that US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General CQ Brown has been a friend of […]
Nahal Toosi, Erin Banco and Lara Seligman Politico, June 24, 2024 “This time, however, the Israelis appear more dug in, though it’s possible that the U.S. could affect what type and size of operation they undertake.” U.S. officials trying to prevent a bigger Middle East war are issuing an unusual warning to Hezbollah: Don’t assume […]
