Op-Eds

The Left's over half-century monopoly of power is almost entirely gone. This is a transition of truly historic dimensions.

Arnold Roth, the father of Malki Roth, has written that he has spoken to legal experts who told him that Double Jeopardy does not apply in this case because Tamimi would be tried in a different country and with different charges.

The unfinished Israeli Beresheet spacecraft project proves that as far as Israel is concerned, the sky is the limit and far beyond. So why – when it comes to politics and confronting her enemies – the start-up nation Israel is still surprisingly rigid and inflexible?

According to Syrian opposition reports, Cohen's remains may already be on the way home. No denials-or confirmation-by Israel

The former U.S. president understood that the demand to create a Palestinian state in Judea and Samaria is a demand for creating a second Palestinian state (over and above Jordan).

The hypocrites who speak of division and polarization will go back to their old mantras in no time at all.

For many American Jews it is a source of profound discomfort and embarrassment that Jews actually carry weapons and fight.

British scholar and Labour party member Alan Johnson concludes in a new report that the Labour party is institutionally antisemitic. He contends that three types of antisemitism are present in the party: the socialism of fools, classical racial antisemitism, and antisemitism dressed up as anti-Zionism. Reading the report and comparing Labour to other European socialist parties, one finds that while they target Israel, much of Labour’s antisemitism is aimed at Jews.

When words have no meaning, there is nothing Left--and that's who you can 'thank'

Hamas terrorists increasingly declare their allegiance to Islamic State

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has spoken about Jews several times, with plain and heartfelt hostility. What most agitates him about Jews is their notorious practice of smearing critics as “anti-Semites” and their penetra tion of the establishment.

The laws established now will have influence over generations to come.

Saeb Erekat, condemned today the results of the Israeli elections, saying it was a ‘vote against peace and for the occupation.’ While blaming Israel is their specialty – Justin Amler put things straight.

Israeli elites on the left find it hard, even in 2019, to accept the fact that they have lost power; they cling to investigations and Israel’s imaginary racism to excuse their entrenched opposition to Benjamin Netanyahu. And how their hypocrisy has grown since the last election—all of a sudden, they miss Menachem Begin.

The American Jewish community on both sides of the political coin reacts to the victory of Benjamin Netanyahu and the Likud in Israel’s national elections on April 9.

PA Chairman Abbas is concerned about reelected PM Netanyahu’s intention to extend Israeli sovereignty over parts of the West Bank. PA sources say that they have no practical ways to prevent this.

It should be said plainly: The core cause behind Netanyahu’s fifth electoral win is contempt for the failed Oslo Accords and the disastrous Gaza disengagement.

Contrary to Barghouti’s allegation, Israel guarantees full civil rights to all of its citizens. Israeli-Arabs participate in the Knesset, on the Supreme Court, academic institutions, the diplomatic corps, and even the military.

In any event, what could have been resolved in a meaningful dialogue, either before or after the event took place, was resolved in a disrespectful manner that not only stifled my freedom of speech but that of the students who participated and wished to host me.

Zachary's parents brought him to Israel from the comfort and security of the United States, desiring a life of greater meaning. Zachary was happy and flourished in the Jewish homeland – and then ultimately gave his life for it.

Last year, the Trump administration unsealed an indictment against Tamimi. Yet it still has taken no steps to invoke the U.S.-Jordanian extradition treaty and demand that King Abdullah hand her over. The Jordanians claim the treaty is not operative. That’s a lie.

The people have indeed spoken and much was said quite ardently. The majority of Israelis trust Netanyahu as the only candidate worthy of the position of prime minister. Bennett and Shaked are in a difficult position: they didn't succeed to unite secular and religious Zionists with their new party.

Republican PR blitz presumes that the party loyalty of American Jews can be weakened by a two-pronged attack.  First, invoking American policy toward Israel. Second, attributing the resurgence of anti-Semitism to liberal political policy. Both assumptions are flawed,...and here’s why

The international community predictably condemned President Trump’s recognition of Israel’s Golan Heights. Recognizing Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem and the Golan Heights, is simply recognizing reality.

Russia holds the cards in Syria. Jerusalem and Tehran must spell out their desires for the Syrian arena to Moscow, who in turn must find a way to leave each side with “half its desires.”

The Trump administration will learn that peace with Israel is seen by many Arabs and Muslims as nothing but an unacceptable threat that must at all costs be stopped.

Expect that those investigators who favored accusing the President with obstruction will lay out their case against Trump. This raises the legal and ethical question of whether it is proper for prosecutors publicly to disclose the evidence and arguments against the subject of a criminal investigation who is not being charged.

With each party, there is something in the platform, or something about someone on the list that is so fundamentally opposed to my own ideological beliefs that I can’t even stomach the idea of voting for any of them. Not voting is something I have thought about, too. But if I don’t vote for the right, it’s a vote for Blue and White. The thought of Gantz/Lapid at the helm, scares the living daylights out of me.

Overthrowing Hamas and handing rule in Gaza to Mahmoud Abbas will not bring about a solution to the Gaza problem. It was, after all, Yasser Arafat, Abbas’s predecessor as PLO leader, who transformed Gaza into an ineradicable terrorist hotbed by flouting the Oslo Accords that he had signed. The solution to the Gaza problem does not lie in Ramallah but rather in the Strip’s historic hinterland – the Sinai Peninsula.

“We will be requested to pay; the Russians believe there are no free lunches,” said Micky Aharonson, former head of the foreign-relations directorate of the National Security Council in Israel’s Prime Minister’s Office.
