Nor was it an effort to capture […]

I’m too young to be a political pundit, but the fact is that for more years than I care to remember, the thought of transfer-the forced movement of the Arab population of Israel, Judea and Samaria to Arab countries- has been criticized as irrational, immoral and impossible to implement.

Now that it’s been a year since America tasted horrific acts of terrorism on its own soil, it’s important to review that Saudi “peace plan.” I know you’re thinking, “What? The very country that supplied nearly all of the September. 11th terrorist hijackers? The same place that has an appalling record of human rights abuse, […]

Last night IDF troops, backed by tanks and helicopters, moved into three sections of PLO-controlled Gaza in a move aimed at weakening the terror infrastructure. PLO officials say that at least nine Arabs were killed, and twenty others wounded in exchanges with the troops. Among the dead were two senior Al-Aksa Brigade terrorists. During the […]

This morning British Prime Minister Tony Blair released a 55-page dossier revealing that Iraq has the ability–and is planning–to launch long-range missiles armed with chemical and biological warheads against its enemies.
