The announcements this week by Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s top advisers, in-house generals and Vice Premier Shimon Peres (along with Sharon’s dubious denials) that the government will now begin planning more land giveaways to the Palestinians after last month’s destruction of our communities in Gaza and northern Samaria ought to have caused a furor in […]

New York – The ZOA has called on the Bush Administration to give clear backing to Israeli counter-terrorist measures in Judea/Samaria and Gaza, instead of making statements calling for both sides to “maintain calm” in the wake of a new wave of attacks by Palestinian terrorist groups upon Israel from Gaza over the weekend. Between […]

Ariel Sharon’s morally indefensible and strategically suicidal policy has been implemented, uprooting long-established prosperous communities, creating deep fissures in Israeli society and giving enormous impetus to Arab terror groups, which rightly see this retreat as their victory. At the very least, as Michael Freund has pointed out in The Jerusalem Post, one would have expected […]

Early Wednesday, 28 Sept, Israeli war planes sent rockets shooting against a Fatah-al Aqsa facility in the Bureij Camp in central Gaza and Hamas, Popular Committees and Jihadi Islami sites in Gaza City. Part of the town’s power […]

New York – Do Israelis feel better off today than before the Oslo process began? Today is the fifth anniversary of the vicious terrorist war against Israel launched by the Palestinian Authority (PA) on September 29, 2000. During this tragic five-year period, 1,060 Israelis have been killed and 6,089 wounded in 26,159 terrorist attacks. The […]

I’ve long suspected that it is the Israeli grand strategy to defeat the Palestinians by forcing them to laugh themselves to death. That seems to be the only possible way to understand the latest resuscitation of the RRH Doctrine, which has dominated Israeli policy toward the Palestinians and the Arab states since the early 1990`s.
