As Israel’s ambassador to Canada said recently, the Canadian government should finally clarify its position on South Africa’s baseless allegation that Israel committed genocide during its air and ground offensive in the Gaza Strip. Since October 8, the day after Hamas terrorists killed 1,200 civilians and soldiers in a murderous rampage in southern Israel, the […]
The Middle East has been convulsed by unprecedented spasms of violence in the past few weeks, and to no one’s surprise, Iran and its proxies have been at the center of this ongoing turbulence. Amid the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip and a low-intensity war pitting Israel against Hezbollah in and around Lebanon, clashes […]
One survey after another confirms that most married Jews in the United States are in mixed marriages partnered with non-Jews. This trend emerged in the 1960s and has become an unstoppable force as America grows more diverse and complex in terms of its multiracial composition. It goes without saying that a mixed marriage is at […]
Israel and the United States are increasingly at odds over the direction of the current war in the Gaza Strip and what comes after it. These divisions emerged with a vengeance during U.S. Secretary of State Atony Blinken’s visit to Israel earlier this month, his fourth in a little more than three months. But they […]
As the war in the Gaza Strip drags on and approaches its fourth month, Israel faces an unsettling dilemma with major implications for its security.

America in the 1930s seemed like fertile ground for the rise of home-grown fascism. Consider the anecdotal evidence.

Loud, aggressive and intimidating Palestinian protests supporting Hamas, demanding an immediate ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war, and falsely accusing Israel of genocide have been proliferating like weeds in Canadian and American cities for more than three months now. Frankly speaking, they have gotten out of hand, the sanctity of freedom of assembly and free speech […]
South Africa has gone down a very crooked road in accusing Israel of “genocidal intent” in its military campaign to eradicate Hamas and remove it from power. In light of the atrocities that Hamas perpetrated last October in southern Israel, which ran the gamut from mass murder to sexual assault, Israel had every moral and […]
Since the eruption of the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip more than three months ago, the United States, Israel’s chief ally, has struggled to prevent it from spreading to the rest of the Middle East. To deter Iran and its proxies in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Yemen from intervening in the war Israel is […]
Jewish settlers in the West Bank have been quietly establishing “facts on the ground” since Hamas terrorists invaded southern Israel on October 7 and murdered 1,200 people in an unprecedented rampage which triggered the fifth war in the Gaza Strip in 15 years. Israel, meanwhile, has been conducting a counter-terrorism campaign in the West Bank […]
