Obama Lectures Israel on History. His Own Record Begs to Differ. The former president’s latest attack on the Jewish state invites an awkward examination of his own Middle East legacy.
Former President Barack Obama once again waded into Middle Eastern affairs, stating in Belfast, Ireland, in a paid gig with an audience of about 7,000 people, that the Jews of British Mandatory Palestine “took land off people and [those people] were expelled. And those people understandably said, ‘This is injustice and I want my land back.’” First, the obvious: Obama’s statement greenlights and justifies terrorism against Israel.

Will Saudi Arabia Fight the Houthis and Join the Abraham Accords? Houthi attacks are forcing Saudi Arabia to confront an awkward strategic reality.

The recent drone attack comes as Iran is applying increased, multi-front military pressure on Saudi Arabia’s south, north, and east.

Hezbollah Steps Up War Against Lebanese Christians Though few are talking about it.

(RELATED: The New Israel–Hezbollah War) There have been numerous instances this past March alone that show the extent to which Hezbollah is infiltrating the Christian parts of Lebanon. Just days ago, Hezbollah took control of the Christian village of Qawzah in southern Lebanon.

US and Israel Continue to Degrade the Islamic Republic – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics
As the United States and Israel have claimed air superiority over the skies of Iran, American and Israeli strikes continue to degrade the Islamic Republic. The justification for the recent military action against Iran further increased as it was recently made public that Iran had bragged to U.S. negotiators mere days ago that it had enough uranium to make 11 nuclear bombs. Satellite imagery has confirmed that either the US or Israel has hit the Natanz nuclear facility in recent days.

Turkey and Qatar will fuel forever war against Israel
The Trump administration and Israel are at odds at whether or not to include Turkey and Qatar in Gaza’s new technocratic government, with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opposing Turkey and Qatar’s inclusion on the Board of Peace.

Syrian Detente Worthless As Country Still Harbors Terrorists – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics
Syrian overtures to broker a detente with the United States and de-escalate with Israel have turned out to be hollow, thanks to Syria. Mere weeks ago, Syrian leader Ahmed Al-Sharaa stated in an interview that he hopes “that Syria is no longer looked at as a security threat” but instead “as a geopolitical ally” to the United States. But the plain fact is that Syria is what it always was: a force hostile to American and Israeli interests.

Peace a Pipedream As Palestinians Continue to Embrace Hamas – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics
Despite the ceasefire between Hamas and Israel brokered by President Trump, it appears that Palestinian society is no closer to accepting a long-term, durable peace with Israel. Recent polling results from an independent think tank surveying Palestinians in both Gaza and Judea and Samaria (called “the West Bank” by the think tank, and therefore, referenced below as such) show many indications that a desire for peace from Palestinians remains elusive.

Will Hamas Blow Up Gaza Deal With Explosive Demands? – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics
As a new condition of the fragile ceasefire in Gaza, Hamas is reportedly demanding that Israel release arch-terrorists Abdullah Barghouti, Marwan Barghouti, Ibrahim Hamed, Ahmad Sa’adat, Hasan Salameh, and Abbas al-Sayed. According to a Hamas source, Hamas is insistent on the release of these arch-terrorists, even at the expense of derailing the current deal.

In Gaza Peace Offer, Trump Should Reject Palestinian Statehood – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics
As multiple countries have recently declared their support for a Palestinian state, there are reports that Trump’s current peace proposal dealing with Gaza includes mention of a path to Palestinian statehood.

DOJ Targets GWU, UCLA, Settles With Columbia and Brown for Antisemitism Claims – The American Spectator | USA News and Politics
The Department of Justice is continuing its fight against antisemitism on college campuses.
