‘Peace in the Middle East’ isn’t Open-Heart Surgery
It’s not so complicated. Palestinian leaders have long rejected peace with a Jewish state, treating terror as a bargaining tool. Yet “The Washington Post” seems unaware of this reality.

Abbas’ 1,000 Nos
How far can Abbas go in opposing negotiation and compromise, encouraging violence, venerating terrorists, spewing hatred, and pushing the criminalization of Israel – while still being considered a paragon of peace by the Israeli Left (ref. Ehud Olmert), the American Jewish Left (ref. Jeremy Ben-Ami), and the global community?

What Happened When Dov Hikind Confronted Tlaib’s Jew Hatred at Rutgers
In 2018, the Trump administration, through the work of Kenneth L. Marcus, reopened the old 2011 case against Rutgers University that the Obama administration had buried. Hatem Bazian, the godfather of campus anti-Semitism, had brought his Never Again for Anyone tour to Rutgers. And when Jewish students and Holocaust survivors came to see what it was about, the "free event" began allowing Muslims and anti-Israel activists in keffiyahs to enter for free while charging Jewish attendees fees.

Jewish Settlers for Sanders, Go Bernie Go!
Sad Satire Sanders
Our Age of Miracles but Possible Lost Opportunities

The State Department Lie That Won’t Die
The thesis that peace between Israel and the Palestinian Authority will “stabilize” the Middle East is without foundation--regardless of who says it or how many times it is repeated.
“Deal of the Century”: A Stimulus, NOT a Blueprint
President Trump’s peace plan must be understood as a systemic impetus toward a new breakthrough rather than as a practical blueprint for resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Why I Confronted Rashida Tlaib At Rutgers University
I asked Tlaib, “What about your anti-Semitism? What about your blood libel?” Several policemen surrounded me a moment later and led me out of the room. Rashida provided no answer and showed no remorse over her raging anti-Semitism.
If You Will It, It Is No Dream… But Only On OUR Terms
The necessity of a Jewish nation state was a foundational premise for the founding fathers of Zionism, no matter what their political persuasion. That understanding was once shared by most American Jews, particularly in the aftermath of the Holocaust. Today, however, the idea of Jewish statehood is no longer a unifying principle but a wedge issue for American Jews.
Olmert and Abbas: Laughing and Crying
