After October 7, It Was Clear How Well Hamas Had Cultivated Public Relations in the West; The Same Goes for Hezbollah

Last Week, Germany’s Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock Blamed Israel, Not Terrorists, for Endangering Hostages Held by Hamas

The IDF and the Home Front Are Weary, and a Military Offensive Against Hezbollah Won’t Defeat the Terror Organization

The Visibility of Ties with Bahrain, Morocco, and the UAE Has Changed Since Hamas’s Attacks on October 7, but Israel’s Newest Arab Partners Remain Committed to Strategic Choice

From the very start, it has been obvious that the goal of ending Hamas rule in Gaza, and the objective of freeing the Israeli hostages, were contradictory.

I recently witnessed something I haven’t seen in a long time. On Friday, August 16, 2024, a group of pro-Hamas activists packed up their signs and went home in the face of spirited and non-violent opposition from a coalition of pro-American Iranians and American Jews. The last time I saw anything like that happen was in 2006 or 2007, when I led a crowd of Israel supporters in chants in order to silence a heckler standing on the sidewalk near the town common in Amherst, Massachusetts. The ridicule was enough to prompt him and his fellow anti-Israel activists to walk away, as we cheered their departure. It was glorious.

The Palestinian mentality is genocidal rejectionism, while on the Israeli side, the mentality is conciliation. Both are unique, and both have failed.

Leading Iranian regime operatives played a key role organizing student anti-Israel protests, an investigation by FWI reveals.

In early July, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence alleged that “Iranian government actors have sought to opportunistically take advantage of ongoing protests regarding the war in Gaza ... We have observed actors tied to Iran’s government posing as activists online, seeking to encourage protests, and even providing financial support to protesters.”
