Op-Eds

After the House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved the supplemental spending bill for the Iron Dome program, everyone from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to the...

"What do you call a party whose leaders require all of America's soldiers to undergo indoctrination in an ideology that calls for the 'dismantling' of America and tells them that their oath to defend the Constitution is an oath to defend a document that codifies 'white supremacy'?... You call it treason." — David Horowitz, author and former Black Panther, Front Page Magazine, September 14, 2021

Yet, if we are to give the vice president the benefit of the doubt, this says something dire about her ability to perform the duties of her office, or worse yet—to someday become president—though she is so wildly unpopular at the moment that this is impossible to imagine.

Recognition of Israel as the Jewish State is the only means to ensure that the conflict is actually over

Israel’s “start-up nation” economy is booming, but the country should be prepared to do all it can to prevent bifurcation by the elites.

What's the harm? It's cost-free. Except, it ISN'T.

From Capitol Hill to the White House, we are witnessing the hinge of history that will determine whether America will continue as a respected world power and it will be decided, in very large measure, by those who may well have chosen power and profits over patriotism.

It is increasingly clear that our community is perpetually playing defense. Perhaps American Jews should renew our commitment to building alliances.

There is a Jewish, human and moral imperative to remember those who were murdered in the ravine of death and to make sure that their names never disappear into oblivion.

While many Middle Eastern countries face states of emergency due to severe water shortages, the UAE is coping rather well.

Israel Defense Minister Gantz stated that Iran was only “around 10 weeks away from acquiring weapons grade materials necessary for a nuclear weapon.” This was not speculation by yet another columnist, but rather a statement in the clearest terms by the defense minister of Israel.

Had Israeli troops remained, Israel would be criticized. Now that they have left, there is still criticism. For some, Israel can do no right.

 Events in Afghanistan have come full circle, with the Taliban—whose government fell to US military advances in 2001 —regaining power and taking possession of large stores of US arms and ammunition. The culpability of the four successive US administrations that waged this fruitless 20-year war, culminating in an abject political and military capitulation, must be investigated and exposed.

Through his UN General Assembly address, Bennett sought to get along with the world, instead of doing what great orators do best: change it.  

Hamas knows that Israelis have a soft spot for captives, but this doesn’t mean we have to play on its turf.

The coalition depends on the votes of the Ra’am Party, so it is about to pass a law that effectively rewards illegal Arab construction.

After much criticism, the Times quietly removed the reference to "rabbis" without apologizing for its reporter's mendacious anti-Semitism or disciplining her for her journalistic malpractice.

Jewish defenders should target their enemies’ Achilles heel—their narcissism and belief in their own unimpeachable virtue.

By giving the US administration veto power over Israel's actions against Iran's nuclear program, the Lapid-Bennett-Gantz government has effectively ended Israel's own operations.

We all know that raw prejudice among Jews against those who are visibly Jewish—that they are loud, rude, unwashed, contemptuous towards outsiders and all the rest of that baggage—is our community’s dirty secret.

It is apparent that even when Biden faces deserved criticism, his allies are quick to dismiss it as predictable attacks from the most fanatical of Trump acolytes

Is it time to say, ‘who cares?’ Who cares what Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib and Marjorie Taylor Greene think? What I do care about is the response of their parties, which has been appallingly weak.

Zionism is described as a “spiritual sister” and “spiritual heir” of Nazi ideology—though Nazi ideology preceded Zionism.

Today, any connection with slavery, however tenuous, is enough to make historical figures into non-persons. It’s time to treat the subjugation of Jews in Arab lands with the same seriousness.

The fact that the Squad would try to deny Israel the right to defend its civilians speaks volumes about the lack of morality and decency among Squad members and their allies.

For the Jew, to know G-d is to study His Torah; to love G-d is to love Torah.

Human beings are limited in their understanding of Hashem’s efforts in creation. We fail to see that magnificence of each component of creation, each being imbued with a portion of Hashem.

It was certainly the weirdest year. It began with a supremely weird decision by the entire world, except China and Sweden, to tank the...

Hashem in His anger forced us to take the very long way home, and yet, throughout that difficult journey, His holy presence surrounded us and kept us going.

The last terror attacks by Hezbollah in Western Europe and the seizing of Western hostages took place in the 1980s. Even occasional action taken against Israel comes at the behest of Tehran in the form of state-sponsored terrorism.
