Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, Mar. 3, 2025 “… it is the height of chutzpah for Trump’s detractors to say that he might do the same to Israel since he has reversed every one of his predecessors’ anti-Israel policies—from arms deliveries to moving the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.” It was, as President Donald […]

J.E. Dyer The Optimistic Conservative, Mar. 3, 2025 “ So my desired end-state isn’t putting the European allies on a timer and berating them for a while, knocking the breath out of them until we blow the whistle and resume play. It’s not about castigating them or showing them up. But it is about seeing them coming, […]

Shoshana Bryen Jewish Policy Center, Mar. 3, 2025 “Trump appears to have two goals. The loud goal is to find a way to end the war through negotiation; the quiet goal is to secure Ukraine without NATO and without a U.S. military presence in the future.” There’s a reason it is called “the art of […]
Ruthie Blum JNS, Mar. 2, 2025 “Israel, in particular, would do well to examine the strategic implications of this shift before rushing to judgment. While Ukraine’s plight is tragic, it is Jerusalem—not Kyiv—that sits at the heart of the most critical global conflict.” The collective gasp that erupted on Friday across European capitals—and echoed in […]
Dror Eydar Israel Hayom, Feb. 28, 2025 “Israel decided to vote according to its own interests. In this case, we voted with the US, which always stands by us, especially at the UN. It may also be that in the near term this will strengthen trust between the US and Russia, distance Russia from Iran, […]

Dovid Margolin Mosaic Magazine, Jan. 7, 2020 “In Ukraine, instead of declaring war, Moscow claimed from the start that “separatists” were bravely trying to break away from the Kiev regime and that it had a moral obligation to protect them.” In early 2014, political disruption in Ukraine devolved into unrest, a Russian invasion of […]
Vladislav Davidzon Tablet, July 11, 2023 “So it needs to be stated outright in an unambiguous and axiomatic fashion: There exists no serious neo-Nazi threat in Ukraine. None at all.” It was deeply exasperating and disappointing to read the latest screed published in The Forward regarding neo-Nazi influence within the now-infamous Ukrainian Azov battalion. The article, […]
Jonathan S. Tobin JNS, June 7, 2023 “The reason why Ukrainians wear these symbols is not exactly a mystery. While Ukrainians have the right to self-determination and independence, their nationalist movement has been linked to antisemitism since its beginnings.” How important is the struggle against antisemitism to the liberal corporate media? How much of […]
Thomas Gibbons-Neff NY Times, June 5, 2023 “Ukraine’s ambivalence about these symbols, and sometimes even its acceptance of them, risks giving new, mainstream life to icons that the West has spent more than a half-century trying to eliminate.” Since Russia began its invasion of Ukraine last year, the Ukrainian government and NATO allies have posted, […]

Jed Babbin American Spectator, Jan. 16, 2023 “All this stuff about COVID this, parts, supply chain this, I just don’t really care. I need [Standard Missile]-6s delivered on time. I need more [torpedoes] delivered on time.” The Russian war to conquer Ukraine is nearly 11 months old. The U.S. media, which demands instant gratification, […]
