Danny Zaken Israel Hayom, Nov. 27, 2024 “This shift primarily reflects a change in State Department strategy, which had previously sought to influence Israel’s military operations, particularly regarding advances into Rafah and Khan Younis.” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his security cabinet’s decision to approve the ceasefire agreement with Lebanon was heavily influenced by […]

Edward Luttwack Unherd, Oct. 1, 2024 “Most of this cash comes from a single source: oil.” Through its early history — but not for the last four decades and more — the main threats to Israel’s security came from its Arab neighbours. That resulted in several wars against Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq. But […]
J.E. Dyer The Optimistic Conservative, Sept. 29, 2024 “As I’ve observed numerous times, the “ceasefire” leading to “two-state solution” is a solution in search of a problem. It’s a pushed narrative. It’s not analysis. It’s not self-evident in 2024 that it’s the answer to any question or problem.” This will be just a few […]
Mehul Srivastava, James Shotter, Charles Clover and Raya Jabali Financial Times, Sept. 29, 2024 “Hizbollah did not disappear in the last 10 days — we’ve damaged and degraded them and they are in the stage of chaos and mourning.

Herb Keinon Jerusalem Post, Sept. 17, 2024 “That message is not only for Hezbollah but also for the international community, first and foremost to the US: get Hezbollah to stand down, meaning to move significantly north of the border with Israel and cease firing missiles and drones, or Israel will indeed take the steps it […]
