Editorial Board WSJ, Apr. 14, 2024 “White House theories of escalation management don’t work against a regime that thinks a U.S. President fears escalation more than Iran does.” Iran’s drone and missile assault on Israel Saturday night into Sunday is an open act of aggression, but it isn’t the start of this conflict. It’s […]

SHABBAT READING Not What Happened But What Should Happen Now: Rabbi Yuval Cherlow, The Torah.com, Mar. 26, 2015 — Why do we even celebrate days of commemoration?[1] A careful look at the Torah demonstrates that our goal is not to return to the past but rather to bring the past to us. These are not archaeological holidays […]
Benny Morris NY Times, Apr. 11, 2024 “… the spectacle of Israeli weakness — as much as a Rafah offensive — could tempt Hezbollah to gamble on a full-scale war.” Unfortunately, Benjamin Netanyahu is right — “unfortunately,” I say, because he is the most incompetent, corrupt and divisive Israeli prime minister ever, as many […]
Sherelle Jacobs The Telegraph, Apr. 8, 2024 “… the historic evidence is that military muscle can play a vital role in breaking faith in the fatally seductive idea that lurks behind all terrorist movements.” The view that Israel has embarked on a doomed Achillean killing rage in Palestine has become received wisdom in Western polite society. […]

Yaakov Katz Jerusalem Post, Feb. 16, 2024 “The West was more obsessed with the people who might or might not have been killed in Gaza – depends if you want to believe Hamas – as opposed to the question of why two Israelis were being held there in the first place.” Imagine that in 2017, […]

Yisrael Medad Jerusalem Post, Feb. 12, 2024 “His new directive authorizes a swift cutoff of military aid to countries that violate international protections of civilians.” This current American Democratic administration appears, at this time, to be determined to do as much damage to US-Israel relations as possible both within the confines of the traditional relationship […]

Emanuel Fabian Times of Israel, Feb. 10, 2024 “We are now at the heart of the secret… under the main UNRWA building. Here is where Hamas kept its intelligence servers,” Hazan said. He said that “to destroy it, totally, so that Hamas cannot use this intelligence supremacy again, you need boots on the ground.” Beneath […]

Vahid Beheshti Washington Times, Feb. 1, 2024 “Although Iran may not openly declare a hybrid war, it is actively engaged in a campaign to systematically dismantle the infrastructure of democratic societies by exploiting the vulnerabilities inherent therein.” The news of three U.S. soldiers killed and 25 injured at a military base in Jordan […]

Pete Hoekstra Gatestone Institute, Feb. 4, 2024 “The current war in Gaza actually has less to do with Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah or the Houthis, and far more to do with their funder and protector, Iran.” On January 17, 2024, the Council for a Secure America (CSA) released the latest update to its “Israel-Hamas […]
John W. Miller and Ari Cicurel The Hill, Feb. 6, 2024 “When asked whether U.S. strikes have succeeded, President Biden said, “Are they stopping the Houthis? No. Are they going to continue? Yes.” With U.S. strikes against Iran-linked targets on Feb. 2, President Biden attempted to fulfill his vow to “hold all those responsible to account” for a Jan. 28 drone attack on a […]
Jonathan Spyer The Spectator, Feb. 5, 2024 “Why is the White House continuing with a strategy that will do nothing to deter Iran and will only lead to more American deaths?” Nine years ago, Barack Obama, with his vice president Joe Biden at his side, announced the Iran nuclear deal. Ayatollah Khamenei’s regime would not enrich […]
