You cannot defeat evil by riding the brakes.

Fighting on two fronts in no easy task, but its essential if we are to free the remaining hostages

Netanyahu’s leadership has eroded Israel’s security and deepened internal divisions, contrasting him with Churchill’s decisive wartime leadership; his indecision on issues like Hamas and Iran, coupled with self-serving politics, has weakened Israel and empowered its enemies

A recent study by the Jewish People Policy Institute (JPPI) found that “a large majority of secular Israeli Jews attach importance to their Jewish identity, and most express a strong sense of Jewishness.”

While the public toils and tears, its politicians never quit politicking.

America’s Silenced Majority remains pro-Jewish and overwhelmingly pro-Israel. But dynamics on social media, and a polarized political culture that broadcasts extremists too loudly, has given the haters an outsized profile.

Israel cannot allow Hezbollah to continue firing into its territory with impunity, nor can it leave its citizens in the north living in fear, waiting for the next rocket to fall.

It’ll be over by Christmas” is an old saying from the first months of World War I. That war lasted from July 1914 to November 1918—almost four and a half years. To Israel’s leaders’ credit, they have never said such a thing about our war. When it began a year ago, with the brutal attack on October 7, neither Christmas nor any Jewish holy day was mentioned as a possible end date. The war started on a holy day, and when it ends it will be a different type of holy day—that is, if Israel ends up winning it.
