Biden team works with Arabs on Israel ceasefire; Israel works with incoming US administration on hostage release
US and Arab mediators are engaging in negotiations in Egypt and Qatar, while the most important party is missing from the meetings: Israel. The Biden administration and the Arabs don’t control how Israel defends itself. Qatar and Saudi Arabia blamed October 7 on the Israeli “occupation,” while Egypt and Qatar were among those who condemned […]
Israel’s foreign minister urges NATO to expel Turkey after Erdogan threatens to invade Israel
It was a big mistake to allow Turkey to be part of NATO in the first place. Turkey’s commitment to secularism was never strong outside the major cities, and now, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s goal is to revive the Ottoman Empire (that is, restore a global Islamic caliphate). In 2018, the Turkish daily newspaper […]
France: Train network hit by nationwide arson attacks, Israel’s foreign minister points to Iran and ‘radical Islam’
Leftist groups might have done this, but it is also true that the Islamic State and Hamas have both called for jihad attacks in France on the occasion of the Paris Olympics.

Israel rejects Norwegian FM visit for recognizing Palestinian state, refusing to designate Hamas terrorist
Refusing to recognize Hamas as a terrorist group; unilaterally recognizing a “Palestinian state” based on the pre-1967 “Auschwitz borders” during the current war; and supporting the International Court of Justice witch-hunt against Israel all shows Norway to be an enemy to Israel. Norway has betrayed Israel, a fellow free society, in the midst of its […]
Ireland: ‘Palestine’s’ ambassador looks forward to seeing her flag flying over Parliament
The Palestinian ambassador to Ireland, Jilan Wahba Abdalmajid, called Israel “vicious” (not Hamas, mind you), and she is “looking forward” to seeing the Palestinian flag “flying on Leinster House.” There are many in Ireland who do not share her enthusiasm. Earlier this month, thousands of demonstrators turned out in Dublin to protest their country’s invasion […]

Canada’s foreign affairs minister Joly tells Israel to ‘take the win’ and ‘not respond with direct attack on Iran’
Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly’s latest callous and presumptuous advice to Israel, to “take the win” (as Biden also told the Israelis) and “not respond with a direct attack on Iran,” is to be expected. Joly’s anti-Israel antics have raised eyebrows: she voted in the Canadian Parliament less than a month ago in favor […]
Israel threatens to strike Iran directly if Iran launches attacks from its own soil
The war on Hamas is inevitably escalating, while Joe Biden appeases Hamas as he has done with Iran, a big funder of Hamas. Should Iran launch attacks against Israel, the Jewish state, as its Foreign Minister Israel Katz says, will be left with no choice but to strike back with full force, given the threat […]
