David Schenker Washington Institute, Oct. 23, 2023 “If the Israeli operations go well, Iran could seek to broaden the conflict. If they go badly, it may look to exploit perceived weakness.

Noah Rothman National Review, Nov. 9, 2023 “An Israeli campaign that successfully defangs the Iran-backed Hamas would be a dramatic event likely sufficient to compel Tehran to rethink its region-wide campaign of violence.” On Wednesday night, two American F-15 fighter jets executed a strike on targets inside Syria that Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said had been used by […]

Hanin Ghaddar Washington Institute, Nov. 3, 2023 “Nasrallah essentially declared that he will not be involved in the battle to “free Palestine,” a goal that lies at the core of his resistance narrative.” As expected, Hezbollah secretary-general leader Hassan Nasrallah did not declare war against Israel today—rather, his first public speech on the Gaza conflict served […]

Jordan Peterson The Telegraph, Oct. 16, 2023 “This warped psychological perspective has an appeal to groups larger than just the core individuals, and in various surreal guises.

Salem Alketbi Israel Hayom, Oct. 11, 2023 “Opening several combat fronts against Israel at the same time is a scenario that was rehearsed and the Israeli side’s reaction to it was tested.” As an observer of the events, I find that Hamas’s invasion of several Israeli towns, while noteworthy, pales in importance compared to […]
