« Previous EntriesIs Obama Abandoning Israel Regarding the Iranian Bomb?
Your email:
According to Dick Morris, he is. Morris writes that a report is out ”that CIA chief Leon Panetta, who recently took time out from his day job (feuding with Nancy Pelosi) to travel to Israel ‘read the riot act’ to the government warning against an attack on Iran.” If this is true, then Obama is [...]
Middle East Peace – No Chance Until Gaza is Fixed
Your email:
In Israel’s latest election, the consensus is that the idea of Land for Peace is not dead, but it’s in a coma until Gaza is fixed. U.S. policymakers should take note of this. When Obama was elected, the usual analysis came out wondering whether Obama can deliver a peace deal, who the Middle East [...]
The U.N. Hates Israel
Your email:
Succumbing to pressure, the U.N. has reversed its claim that Israel targeted U.N. protected schools in the recent Gaza conflict. See UN backtracks on claim that deadly IDF strike hit Gaza school (Haaretz, 2/3/09). I am surprised that the U.N. even bothered issuing any retraction at all. Regardless, considering the fact that the U.N. drummed up [...]

Crossing Israel’s Breaking Point Yields Unity and Success
Your email:
Enduring Hamas missiles aimed at its civilians for over eight years, Israel has had enough. In other words, Hamas hit Israel’s breaking point, and now should be quite sorry it did. This war has unified Israel’s mainstream political spectrum in dealing with Gaza and Hamas. And when Israel has consensus in a matter, it acts [...]
Hamas Traps and Tricks
Your email:
Today, Steven Erlanger in the New York Times reported about traps and tricks used by Israel and Hamas in the current war over Gaza. See Gaza War is Full of Traps and Trickery By Both Hamas and Israel (1/11/09). What is remarkable are the “traps and tricks” employed by Hamas:
“[W]ith training from Iran and Hezbollah . . . [...]
U.N. Aids and Abets Palestinian and Hezbollah Terrorists
Your email:
Yesterday, Israel bombed a U.N.-run school in Gaza killing over 40 Palestinian civilians. This is a serious tragedy. However, the real fault lies at the hands of the U.N. and Hamas, not Israel. According to Israel, it was responding to rocket fire from these U.N. buildings, and Hamas was stockpiling weapons in them (and of [...]
Proportionate Response
Your email:
Is this what the “Peacemakers” mean when they demand no more than a proportionate reponse?

Hamas Rockets “Nagging” Israel
Your email:
In a travesty of an article, Palestinian propagandist Daoud Kuttab believes that Hamas’ lethal rocket attacks are merely “nagging” Israel and are nothing more than an amateur “nuisance” (see, if you can stomach the nonsense of it, ”Has Israel Revived Hamas?, Washington Post 12/30/08). Kuttab somehow finds Israeli school children and civilians running to bomb shelters [...]
Please, Let Israel Win
Your email:
Let Israel win this war against Hamas. There should be no cease fire or truce until Israel achieves its goals in eradicating Hamas completely. Assuming that Hamas would be replaced with a more benign Palestinian regime, an Israeli victory will: remove an Islamic fundamentalist terror dictatorship from power, end rocket attacks against Israel, reduce suicide attacks, demoralize [...]
