The specter of a two-front war bleakly confronts Israel as it prepares to launch a massive invasion of the Gaza Strip in an attempt to topple the pro-Iranian Hamas regime, destroy its military infrastructure, capabilities and network of tunnels, and kill its leaders and foot soldiers. While Israel appears ready to deal Hamas a crushing […]
The catastrophic Israeli intelligence and military failure that enabled some 3,000 Hamas terrorists from the Gaza Strip to breach Israel’s security fence and kill 1,400 civilians, soldiers and policemen and abduct 199 hostages within a matter of hours will haunt Israel for decades to come. The October 7 attack was like a bolt out of […]
At this grave moment in Israel’s history, when its very existence as a sovereign nation is being frontally challenged by Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran, the former president of the United States committed an egregious error. Donald Trump, still the frontrunner for the Republican Party’s presidential nomination, foolishly chose to air personal grievances instead of coming […]
Russian President Vladimir Putin’s response to Hamas’ ferocious terrorist attack on Israel last week, the worst in Israeli history, has left the Israeli government bitterly disappointed and most likely disillusioned. Neither Putin nor Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov have directly condemned Hamas nor have they phoned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to express their condolences for the […]
This was not just another run-of-the-mill speech by a politician, but a major address of historic and heart-warming proportions.

Within days of the launch of Israel’s ongoing counter-offensive in the Gaza Strip, following the unprecedented savagery committed by cold-blooded Hamas terrorists in southern Israel on October 7, insistent calls were heard from a variety of quarters about the urgent necessity for a truce to stop the fighting. “We call on the Palestinian and Israeli […]
No irrefutable evidence of Iran’s operational involvement in Hamas’ devastating attack on Israel on October 7 has so far emerged, notwithstanding a report in the Wall Street Journal that the Iranian regime assisted Hamas in planning it. But analysts are certain that the onslaught — which caught Israel off guard and unprepared, caused the deaths […]
Hamas stands nakedly exposed as a deliberate perpetrator of war crimes. During its unprecedented murderous rampage through Israeli communities in southern Israel on October 7, which has so far claimed the lives of some 800 Israelis, Hamas terrorists pouring forth like wolves from the Gaza Strip not only killed soldiers, but targeted civilians in a […]
It was a stunning, horrific and unprecedented event on a scale that will surely be burned into Israel’s consciousness. In the early hours of October 7, under the cover of a massive rocket barrage and less than a day after Israel marked the somber 50th anniversary of the outbreak of the Yom Kippur War, hundreds […]
