Why is the “civilized world” shamelessly preparing to carve a terrorist state of “Palestine” out of the already-ravaged body of Israel? Why, in the existential matter of a Palestinian state that would be unalterably opposed to American as well as Israeli security needs, are tens of thousands of Jews in the United States and Israel manifestly indifferent, or even openly supportive?

With a ‘friend’ like Erdogan, Obama’s policy toward Syria, Iran, the advance of revolutionary Islamism, and the Israel-Palestinian “peace process,” is in serious trouble.

President Obama can choose to play this complex game purposefully or inattentively. But, one way or another, he will have to play.

A fundamental inequality is evident in all expressions of the Middle East peace process.

One must presume that President Obama’s most recent calls for Israeli cooperation in the Middle East peace process are balanced, fair, and well-intentioned. Why not? At the same time, unsurprisingly, these all-too-familiar calls are manifestly thin, in the sense that they lack any genuine intellectual content.

Needed changes in Israel’s decision making process have simply not kept up with the growing complexities and synergies of Israel’s always-hostile external environment.

Israel must continue to base its policies toward both Iran and ‘Palestine’ upon an utterly candid and unvarnished awareness of threats to Jewish life.

Under all relevant criteria of international law, Iran’s ongoing stance toward Israel remains unequivocally genocidal.

There have been no recognized examples of anticipatory self-defense as a specifically preventative anti-genocide measure under international law.
