Bigger Than Just Iran Original
The danger of nuclear war in the world just diminished drastically. Americans are safer now than they were. America has a vital interest in preventing the spread of nuclear weapons. By striking Iran, President Trump showed the resolve to use force to uphold that interest. The strategic significance of the blow extends far beyond Iran. This was the first time the United States used a military attack to stop a country from acquiring a nuclear bomb.
China-Saudi Arabia Ties Threaten America. Biden Must Reverse Beijing's Gains.
When U.S. President Joe Biden visits Saudi Arabia next week, China should be on his mind. His agenda will, of course, include other important matters: recent Saudi commitments to increase oil production, a cease-fire with the Houthis in Yemen, and progress in Saudi normalization with Israel.
A New Ritual for America's Civic Religion

A new Palestinian Authority NGO decree might halt US aid to the 'West Bank' and Gaza
(JNS) Though President Joe Biden is eager to resume aid to the Palestinian Arabs, their leaders are making it difficult for him. For years, U.S. officials have tried to use economic aid to improve Palestinian Arab civil society, but the Palestinian Authority (PA) has embarrassed their efforts.
The UAE Is Rejecting Doublethink on Israel — Will It Last? | National Review
Dubai, United Arab Emirates, March 2020. (Christopher Pike/Reuters) If its model for peace is successful, the UAE could positively transform the entire Middle East and the broader Muslim world. A remarkable feature of the first months of peace between Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is the way the Emiratis have warmly embraced delegations representing Israel and American-Jewish communities. UAE leaders have urged their citizens to be hospitable and have largely been heeded.
What Do Israeli Arabs Want?
When three terrorists killed two Israeli policemen on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount on July 14, thereby precipitating a chain of further Arab violence that has not yet abated, what shook Israelis was not just the fact that the crime was committed at Judaism’s holiest site; it was that it originated within Israel’s pre-1967 borders and was committed by Israeli citizens. The murderers were residents of Umm al-Fahm, Israel’s third largest Arab city.
Remembering “Operation Wedding,” the Event That Kick-Started the Movement to Free Soviet Jewry " Mosaic
In June 1970, fourteen Soviet Jews who had been refused permission to emigrate tried to steal an airplane to fly themselves to freedom in the West. Led by Edouard Kuznetsov and Mark Dymshits, the group had spent months plotting their move. The hijackers, claiming to be traveling together to a wedding—hence “Operation Wedding,” the name of their scheme—had bought all the seats on the small aircraft to ensure there would be no one but themselves on board.
Why Tunisia Is the One Lasting Success of the Arab Spring
From 2015: Five years after triggering the Arab Spring, Tunisians doggedly pursue a democratic transition while other countries remain gripped by violence and repression. The graffiti on the wall reads in French "Stand up, Tunisians, everybody is proud of you." Photo credit: Fethi Belaid/AFP/Getty Images. The Iranian political demonstrations now under way have roots in the Arab Spring upheavals that began in December 2010 in North Africa.
Rashid Khalidi & Nazi Slur: Jews Rats Infestation | National Review
Rashid Khalidi is unapologetic. The longtime Columbia University professor last month said repeatedly that supporters of Israel would “infest” the Trump administration — language that evokes the imagery and metaphors of the Nazis. But for all the on-campus sensitivity seminars and trigger warnings that dominate our age, don’t expect an apology in this case. Apparently, no language, even if it is dehumanizing and deeply rooted in historic anti-Semitism, is out of line in condemning Israel.
Bashing Israel Trumps Helping Gays
This is Queer Awareness Month at Columbia University. Yet instead of advocating for gay rights in the nearly 80 countries where homosexuality is a crime, the Columbia chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine is using the month for programming that defames Israel. “Good Gay/Bad Gay,” for example, claims Israel has an “imperialist LGBT agenda.” The organization attacks Britain and the U.S. along similar lines.
Natan Sharansky and the Lessons of Hanukkah
Hanukkah is about happiness. The holiday’s customs promote joy in the form of sweet chocolate and oily latkes, while the Hanukkah story points to a spiritual element of human satisfaction—freedom. Through subtle wordplay, the Torah portion commonly read during the holiday focuses our attention along similar lines.
