The Arabs have literally been dying to ethnically cleanse the Middle East of Jews since the 1917 Balfour Declaration provided heads-up that their powerless dhimmis were finally slated to inherit a tiny bit of power of their own. Proud Jews in the Middle East must have been utterly unthinkable to them. Although Jews have inhabited […]

What is this business with the Peace Bloc all about? What makes them wish to inform on IDF officers at the International Court in the Hague? Have they gone out of their minds? How could they commit such blatant acts of treachery? Two elements are involved in this issue. The first is an ancient Jewish […]

To fully understand current conflicts in the Middle East, history must be recalled. Acknowledged by the United Nations and the civilized community of nations, Israel became a recognized and sovereign state on May 14, 1948. Immediately, the five armies of Egypt, Syria, Transjordan (which was renamed Jordan one year later, in 1949), Lebanon and Iraq […]

Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said yesterday that international economic sanctions, U.S. military air patrols and other measures over the past decade have largely failed to contain Iraq’s potential for menacing other nations. His remarks at a Pentagon news conference represented one of the most emphatic rationales offered so far by a senior administration official […]

She wrote this piece in May for the Avi Chai Bookshelf, a project for participants of Birthright Israel. Each morning when I leave my apartment building, […]

That's why every wave of immigration ushers in its own form of prejudice, because the latest ethnic group to arrive competes for jobs with those locals who are the most economically insecure.      There are exceptions, of course, […]

Since last Wednesday, at least 18 persons have been killed and more than 150 wounded in a new wave of Palestinian bombings and shootings directed at Israeli civilian targets. The deadliest attack occurred Sunday, when at least nine persons were killed and nearly 50 wounded in the bombing of a bus near Safed, in northern […]

AT SOME POINT ISRAELIS are likely to start asking themselves: Why should we continue to let TV reporters and news photographers take pictures of terrorist murder scenes? Of dead and maimed Israelis, shocked bystanders, grieving families, blood in the streets? Who gave TV cameras the right to be there in the first place? Exactly why […]

   A single Israeli missile successfully aimed at Hamas terror-monger Salah Shehade on July 22, 2002 also killed 15 Palestinian civilians. For these collateral deaths, Israel has come under withering international criticism, including claims that the action was a crime under international laws protecting civilians in occupied land.      Such legal claims are inaccurate. As part […]

C. Information Campaign Among Yesha Arabs and Encouragement of Resettlement Let us pause for a moment to consider the big picture. The implementation of transfer will only work well if the majority of those to be resettled do so voluntarily. Forcibly expelling millions of people is not only cruel (though it may be necessary), but […]
