Will Qatar join the fight against terrorism?
OPINION: Qatar’s reported deliberations over expelling Hamas leaders mark a pivotal moment in Hamas’ war of aggression against Israel. The decision comes after the horrific revelation that Hamas executed hostages, including dual U.S.-Israeli citizen Hersh Goldberg-Polin, in late August and the seemingly moribund hostage negotiations. Whether Qatar’s ultimatum to Hamas is real remains to be seen, but expulsion is insufficient.
Trump 2.0 Would Face a New World
U.S. Foreign Policy Elections United States What would Donald Trump’s foreign policy look like, should he win a second presidential term? The debate ranges between those who believe he will abandon Ukraine, withdraw from NATO, and herald a “post-American Europe”—and those who predict he will escalate the Russian-Ukrainian war and continue his fiercely anti-communist policies.
The War in Gaza Hasn’t Stopped Israeli-Arab Normalization
From the moment Hamas launched its barbaric assault on Israel on October 7th, Israel’s normalization with Arab states, critics allege, was on the rocks and the prospects of the ultimate prize, Saudi-Israel normalization, was dead on arrival.
Opinion | A Military Drop Full of Matzo for the Israeli Hostages
Jews around the world will celebrate Passover next week, marking their ancestors’ escape from slavery in Egypt and deliverance as a sovereign people into the land of Israel. This year, as many as 133 Jews will spend Passover in captivity—the hostages Hamas has trapped in Gaza’s dungeons since Oct. 7. As we press for their release, the Biden administration should help them prepare for liberation by having the U.S. military drop matzo into the Gaza Strip.
Biden is dreaming it’s like 1918, but Israel is fighting like it’s 1945
President Biden is calling for a World War I-style armistice for the war between Israel and Hamas, according to Post columnists Gabriel Scheinmann and Michael Doran. Getty Images Washington is dreaming like it’s 1918, but Jerusalem is fighting like it’s 1945. President Biden is approaching the conflict in Gaza with the mindset that ended World War I, while the Israelis are fighting with the spirit that transformed Germany 27 years later.
Countering Iranian Aggression in Jordan & Beyond
On January 28th, Iranian proxies killed three American soldiers and injured 22 others in a drone attack on an American base in northeastern Jordan, near the Syrian border. These are the first American lives lost so far in the broader Middle Eastern flare-up since October 7th. For comment on an appropriate American response, Providence reached out to Rebeccah Heinrichs, Robert Nicholson, and Gabriel Scheinmann.
Scheinmann: Elite universities’ culture problem must be solved
Harvard President Claudine Gay’s resignation puts an end to a short and embarrassing era at America’s oldest university. Her unfeeling response and admission, under oath to Congress, that calls for genocide against Jews and antisemitic speech do not violate university guidelines were public relations disasters. Her tolerance of Jew-hatred on campus enabled the worst instincts to surface and spread fear amongst Jewish students.
The Importance of Rebuilding the ‘Arsenal of Democracy’
For the second time in two years, America finds itself providing military support to a friend in the wake of aggression. Within days of Hamas’ attack on Israel, American munitions began flowing to the Israeli Defense Forces, and no reporting suggests that a single request for military material has yet been denied. But the situation raises important questions: How long is such support materially sustainable given well-reported strains on defense supply chains?

美国总统候选人怎么不就中国展开辩论了?
拜登对中共带来的威胁轻描淡写,而包括特朗普在内的共和党候选人未就台湾问题表达明确立场…… Gabriel Scheinmann / 2023年9月27日14:05 CST 更新 2024年总统选举是美国从中国带来的双重震撼中惊醒后的首次大选。中国甩开美国伸出的“接触”之手,成为我们的头号战略竞争对手;不仅如此,美国还面临到2027年乃至在更早的时候,在台海战争中败给中国的真实风险。应对中国带来的这两重冲击... 成为《华尔街日报》会员, 畅读全文 马上注册 已经是会员? 登录
Opinion | Why Aren’t the Presidential Candidates Debating China?
The 2024 presidential race is the first since America woke up to a double shock from China: Not only has Beijing spurned U.S. “engagement” and emerged as our top strategic rival, but America also faces the real risk of losing a war to China over Taiwan by 2027, if not sooner. Responding to these shocks is the primary national-security challenge facing the next commander in chief.

4 Ways U.S. Support for Ukraine Helps Defend Taiwan
From deterrence to military readiness, Ukraine aid is a major boost to Pacific security.

Omar Marques/Getty Images In the U.S. political debate, an often-heard criticism of military assistance to Ukraine is that it takes up resources needed against a far more dangerous threat: China.

Helping Ukraine does not distract us from helping Taiwan
Listen CommentArticle Share Gabriel Scheinmann is executive director of the Alexander Hamilton Society. U.S. military aid to Ukraine's self-defense, critics allege, is making America's military less prepared and less potent.
Power and Prudence
It has been a long year for America on the world stage. A year ago, the United States lost the war in Afghanistan to a fundamentalist Islamic regime that now rules over 40 million people. Eight months ago, Vladimir Putin launched the greatest war in Europe since World War Two, and currently occupies 30 percent of Ukraine. Two months ago, Beijing used the pretext of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan to conduct significant military exercises in Taiwanese and Japanese territorial waters.

Here's What Biden's New National Security Strategy Should Say
After a long wait, the Biden administration may finally release the new U.S. National Security Strategy (NSS) this fall. Originally scheduled for publication late last year, the document was withheld as Russian war preparations on Ukraine’s borders intensified. The invasion and its fallout then presented Washington with a new strategic situation, requiring the document to be rewritten.

Iran Is Going Nuclear. The U.S. Had Plenty of Chances to Stop It.
After more than two decades of failed policies—fluctuating wildly between confrontation and cooperation—Washington and the West still find themselves facing down a hostile Iran. And today, though it is in dire shape economically, Tehran may be close to delivering the final rebuff, with experts saying it is just weeks away from achieving nuclear bomb capability.

The Window To Expel Russia From Ukraine Is Now
The West must help the Ukrainians expel Russian forces from Ukraine’s southeast, at least to the lines as they were before Russia launched its full-scale invasion in February. The Kremlin is trying to absorb and likely annex Ukraine’s southeast, but Russia has not yet solidified its control over the occupied areas. Russia controls some places, such as Kherson, militarily—but cannot yet govern them.
Africa’s Stolen Art Debate Is Frozen in Time

WSJ / Perché gli Usa dovrebbero volere un guerra fredda con la Cina
Le crisi ribollenti in Ucraina e Taiwan hanno ricordato ai leader che la geopolitica non muore mai. Eppure, nel settembre 2021 il presidente Joe Biden ha dichiarato alle Nazioni Unite che gli Stati Uniti "non stanno cercando una nuova guerra fredda" né con la Cina né con la Russia. Biden ha cercato di ridimensionare la portata della competizione con la Cina, cercando la cooperazione su aree di reciproco interesse. Questo è l'approccio sbagliato.
Opinion | The U.S. Should Want a Cold War With China
Simmering crises in Ukraine and Taiwan have reminded leaders that geopolitics never die. Yet President Biden declared at the United Nations in September that the U.S. is “not seeking a new Cold War” with either China or Russia. Mr. Biden has sought to downsize the scope of the competition with China while seeking cooperation on areas of mutual interest. This is the wrong approach. A Cold War-style competition with China is precisely what the U.S. should want.
The Intellectual Conformity of International-Relations Faculty | National Review
A professor and university students in a lecture hall (Clerkenwell/Reuters) A dearth of conservative professors deprives students of crucial perspectives. Americans may be repulsed by the fiasco in Afghanistan — a recent poll suggests only 25 percent approve of President Biden’s handling of the situation — but there is one constituency that fully supports his decision: the ivory tower.
Biden's China Strategy After the Afghanistan Withdrawal

Biden's Afghanistan Withdrawal Could Make the China Problem Harder
Argument An expert's point of view on a current event. No, a complete withdrawal will not ease the U.S. pivot to China. By Michael J. Green, the senior vice president for Asia at the Center for Strategic and International Studies and a professor at Georgetown University, and Gabriel Scheinmann, the executive director of the Alexander Hamilton Society. U.S. Army soldiers from the 10th Mountain Division return home from a nine-month deployment to Afghanistan at Fort Drum, New York, on Dec. 10, 2020.
The Terror Within: A Survivor's Tale - The Tower
How can you survive a terror attack without losing your respect for the humanity of the other side? How can you defeat terror without giving up on your soul? Held captive to depravity I knelt, gagged and bound, and waited to be beheaded. I remember the fusion of the fragrant pines and the stench of bile trapped under the rag around my mouth. I remember hearing the songs of the birds and the terrified whimper of my friend. I remember a bright light; a machete glinting in the sun.
The Iran Deal Isn’t Anything Like Nixon Going to China
Analogies, Sigmund Freud once wrote, decide nothing, but they can make one feel more at home. President Obama is explicitly comparing his diplomatic triumph with Iran to President Nixon’s opening to China in 1972.
Supporting the Iran nuclear requires believing these 4 things
The recently concluded Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action regarding Iran’s nuclear program is indeed historic. Proponents believe that it will prevent an Iranian bomb and make “the world and the region—including Israel—more secure.” Critics think that it is a catastrophe that legitimizes Iran’s nuclear program, shreds global non-proliferation standards, menaces the security of our allies, and emboldens Iranian aggression.

Published by The Lawfare Institute in Cooperation With Editor’s Note: The recent events in Ukraine have dredged up memories of an era of great-power competition and territorial conquest driven by imperialistic ambitions that many observers believed had been relegated to the dustbin of history.
The Gezi Diaries: Erdogan's Turkey Goes Medieval - The Tower
Some see it as a modern democracy with an Islamic tint, an improving, reforming country. But if you were in Istanbul during the last month and a half, you’d have seen something completely different: a violent, authoritarian, increasingly suppressive regime. Tales from the Dark Side, Turkish style. I’ve always been a critic of armchair reporting. But when your armchair is four blocks away from Taksim Square, it has one of the best views of the uproar in Istanbul any diligent reporter could ask for.
