Moshe Phillips JNS, Apr. 22, 2025 “More and more Israelis are acknowledging a painful reality: Whether they support Fatah or Hamas, Palestinians overwhelmingly agree that the Jewish state must be eliminated.” April 22, 2025, may be remembered as a turning point in the history of Israeli public diplomacy—and rightly so. On that day, the […]
Ibrahim Eid Dalalsha, Shira Efron, Jess Manville, and Gabriel Epstein Israel Policy Forum, Mar. 2025 “… two parallel reform efforts must unfold in tandem: enhancing day-to-day governance and service delivery under the PA, and deeper political reforms within the PLO, Fatah alongside developing an election horizon.” The October 7 atrocities and the subsequent Gaza […]
Daniel Greenfield Front Page, May 14, 2025 “It’s hard to imagine a name more closely associated with foreign invaders than ‘Palestinians’.” Even though the Jewish history in the land of Israel is one of the most popular stories of mankind and was incorporated into the religious beliefs of over half the human race, it’s […]
Yohanan Tzoreff INSS Insight No. 1982, May 15, 2025 “In Abbas’s view, the war has exposed Hamas as out of touch with today’s strategic realities and incapable of managing the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.” The PLO Central Council approved the appointment of Hussein al-Sheikh as deputy chairman of the PLO during a session held on April […]

Melanie Phillips Substack, Dec. 15, 2023 “The Biden administration says the PA must change.

Caroline B. Glick JNS, Nov. 19, 2023 “Led by the Biden administration, Western governments have uniformly insisted that Hamas does not represent the Palestinians. Most Palestinians, including those in Gaza, simply want to make peace with Israel that includes a Palestinian state, they say.” For more than a generation, the Israeli left and Western leaders […]

Gabriel Diamond The Hill, Nov. 16, 2023 “Jenin’s refugee camps now house multiple terrorist groups, including Hamas. If the Palestinian Authority cannot prevent Hamas from infiltrating its own cities in the West Bank, why would it be any different in Gaza?” The Oct. 7 terrorist massacre in southern Israel made it all too clear that Hamas must go. […]

JPost staff Jerusalem Post, June 20, 2023 “Jenin has been a center of terror for decades.” The clashes that occurred in Jenin on Monday, resulting in seven Israeli servicemen being wounded, mark a significant escalation by Palestinian terrorists against Israel, and highlight the Palestinian Authority’s failure to rein in the growing lawlessness in the West Bank. Over […]

Jason D. Greenblatt Newsweek, May 23, 2023 “Abbas, Hamas, PIJ, and other terrorist and militant groups continue to stand on the wrong side of history.

INCREASING TIES No, President Biden, the Synagogue Attack Was Not Against the “Civilized World”: David Suissa, Jewish Journal, Jan. 28, 2023 — We attach ourselves to narratives because they comfort us. It’s comforting to think that the terrorist who murdered seven Jews coming out of a Jerusalem synagogue was striking a blow against “the civilized world,” as […]
Yossi Kuperwasser Israel Hayom, Jan. 20, 2023 “… the PA is a terror-promoting entity that has long since proven its commitment to the final objective of Israel’s annihilation.” Recent steps taken by the new Israeli government in retaliation for the Palestinian Authority’s appeal to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) represent the first indication […]
