Benjamin Weinthal Jerusalem Post, June 9, 2024 “Shame on @KoerberIP for promoting Hossein Mousavian, a known terrorist with blood on his hands from his involvement in Iranian human rights abuses.” The Islamic Republic of Iran purchased 300 tons of refined uranium from Niger in a secret deal that is part of Tehran’s drive to amass […]
Jacob Nagel Ynet News, June 19, 2024 “If, … Iran also moves enough weapons-grade enriched uranium to a secret underground site, with a small number of advanced centrifuges, Israel and the U.S. would find it very difficult to act militarily to stop Iran from becoming nuclear.” Israel continues the war in Gaza and Lebanon […]
Elie Klutstein Israel Hayom, June 16, 2024 “Much is hidden from view on this sensitive issue. Israel does not disclose its capabilities, so one can only assess the situation based on informed individuals, publicly available data, and analyses of the mission requirements.” Around 1,500 kilometers (930 miles) more or less, separate Israel from the […]
John Bolton WSJ, June 4, 2024 “Mr. Biden’s greater mistake is refusing to acknowledge Iran’s “ring of fire” strategy to intimidate Israel and achieve regional hegemony over the oil-producing monarchies and other inconvenient Arab states.” The world has truly turned upside down when a U.S. president begs America’s allies to have a United Nations […]

Richard Goldberg National Review, Nov. 30, 2023 “Iran’s response to America’s taking its foot off the sanctions pedal was escalation on all fronts.” Hours before nearly 300,000 Americans gathered on the National Mall to show solidarity with Israel and condemn Hamas terrorism, the Biden administration sent a notification to Capitol Hill that upwards of $10 […]
David McCormick WSJ, Jan. 7, 2024 “Iran gets away with it because American politicians cave.” You could hear the demented joy through the phone. A young man standing in the Mefalsim kibbutz called his parents back in Gaza to brag about murdering 10 Jews on Oct. 7. They were elated. That was but one […]
Naftali Bennett WSJ, Dec. 28, 2023 “There are many ways to weaken Iran: empower domestic opposition, ensure internet continuity during riots against the regime, strengthen its enemies, increase sanctions and economic pressures. But Israel can’t and shouldn’t do this alone. The U.S. should be leading the effort.” Hamas and Islamic Jihad, backed by […]

Laurence Norman WSJ, Aug. 11, 2023 “…even if it does stop accumulating 60% material, Tehran has enough of the material for at least two nuclear bombs. U.S. officials said this year Iran could field a nuclear weapon within several months.” Iran has significantly slowed the pace at which it is accumulating near-weapons-grade enriched uranium […]
Michael Crowley, Ronen Bergman and Farnaz Fassihi NY Times, Aug. 10, 2023 “The Islamic Republic’s enmity toward the United States is central to its identity as a revolutionary power. It needs America as an adversary for its own internal legitimacy. It is willing to cut tactical deals on hostages and nukes when it behooves them […]
