  • Talking to Hamas: “Netanyahu is Lying”

    These movements are often portrayed in a cartoonish manner as irrational terrorists who want to kill for the sake of killing.

  • Skewed Coverage of the Vietnam War

    “Scapegoating the media fits neatly into ‘stab in the back’ theories of Americans who can’t stand the fact that their country lost a war to impoverished Vietnamese fighters.

The Lebanese government, stripped of deterrence & forced by the U.S. to chase the fantasy of disarming Hezbollah, stood powerless, just as it has throughout 2,740 Israeli ceasefire violations since November, killing more than 190 people & injuring over 485. Seriously, this isn’t governance, it’s managed helplessness. Hezbollah, still adhering to the ceasefire, hasn’t retaliated once.…

  • Investigative Analysis of “Pro-Israel, Pro-Peace” Group J Street

    “Month after month, J Street news releases echoed pronouncements coming from the White House and State Department, becoming grim parodies of wishful thinking and empty warnings.

    Public health experts are stunned but unsurprised by the Senate confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Health and Human Services secretary.

His stance on vaccines in particular threatens to cause a major infectious disease conflagration, such as the…

  • Ethnic Cleansing Endgame in Gaza * No Ceasefire in West Bank

    On Tuesday evening, the Associated Press reported, President Trump “suggested that displaced Palestinians in Gaza be permanently resettled outside the war-torn territory and proposed the U.S. take ‘ownership’ in redeveloping the area into ‘the Riviera of the Middle East.’ Trump’s brazen proposal appears certain to roil the next stage of talks meant to extend the tenuous ceasefire…
