When a head of government asks to be pardoned before being convicted, a red flag should go up, not only in the courthouse, but in the hearts of the people. That’s where Israel stands today. Netanyahu, already the only sitting prime minister in the country’s history to undergo a corruption trial, has formally requested a…
Beirut, Bombs, and the Endless Blame Game
There are two things you can always count on in the Middle East: somebody’s going to launch a rocket, and somebody’s going to swear it was “totally justified, absolutely necessary, and incredibly precise.” It’s like the region’s version of “eat, pray, love,” except it’s more “threaten, strike, retaliate.” Recently Israel carried out a pinpoint airstrike…
A Review of Trump’s 20-Point Gaza Plan
The Middle East is a mess. I know, that’s not exactly a news flash. For decades, Israel and Hamas have been caught in the same exhausting cycle: rockets fly, bombs drop, the world yells “ceasefire,” and then—surprise—it all starts over again. It’s like watching the world’s worst rerun, except every season ends with more destruction,…
Modern Jews and the Birth of Israel: Debunking Myths and Misconceptions
Let’s tackle two stubborn questions head-on, the kind that buzz around the internet like mosquitoes you can’t quite swat: Are modern Jews truly the descendants of the ancient Israelites? Did the Rothschilds secretly mastermind the creation of Israel as part of some hidden world-domination plot? If you’ve stumbled across these claims, congratulations! You’ve dipped your…
Operation Rising Lion: Just War or Dangerous Gamble?
Yesterday, Israel launched a large-scale military operation known as Operation Rising Lion, targeting several key nuclear and military facilities deep within Iranian territory. These included uranium-enrichment centers at Natanz, ballistic missile stockpiles, and secret research reactors suspected of developing nuclear weapons capabilities. The Israeli Air Force deployed advanced F-35I Adir stealth jets and long-range drones…
Israel’s Right to Defend Itself, Hezbollah’s Evil Tactics, and the Moral Clarity the World Lacks
Once again, the world is watching another dangerous escalation in the Middle East. On Friday, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) struck southern Beirut—a rare move, and the first time they’ve targeted Lebanon’s capital since November. The strike came after two projectiles were fired into northern Israel from Lebanese territory. The IDF says the target was…
Truth and Tragedy in Gaza
It’s hard to watch the news coming out of Gaza without feeling a deep sense of sorrow. Israeli forces have resumed ground operations in the Gaza Strip, and the airstrikes have taken a heavy toll on Palestinian lives. War is ugly, brutal, and heart-wrenching, and no one should take lightly the loss of innocent life.…
Hamas’ Cruelty on Full Display: A Wake-Up Call for the West
The latest display of Hamas' depravity—the public spectacle of returning hostage remains, some mislabeled, others locked in coffins with missing keys, all while Palestinian crowds cheered—should erase any lingering illusions about who and what Israel is fighting. This was not an act of war; it was an act of raw, calculated evil. The sheer cruelty…
Trump’s Reckless Gaza Plan: Foolish, Yet Hints at a Larger Truth
Donald Trump is, if nothing else, consistent. His latest proposal to take control of Gaza and rebuild it as an American project is just the latest example of his signature blend of brash, thoughtless rhetoric and occasional accidental insight. The suggestion that the United States, fresh off the disastrous occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan, should…
