A tribute to Rabbi Dr. Ambassador Yaacov Herzog on his 50th yahrzeit: "There is something unique about the Jews in the history of mankind, ‘a people that dwells alone,’ and so long as the world agrees, it cannot deny the right of Jews to this land.”

A focus on isolated settler violence obscures the far greater violence perpetrated in the West Bank every single day by extremist Palestinians against non-violent Israelis.

The Strategic Survey for Israel 2022 published this week by the Institute for Strategic Studies (INSS) misses the mark. Where is the Zionist fervor to upgrade Israel’s security situation by taking the offensive against our enemies?

Israel gets almost no international credit for its many humanitarian medical activities. And Palestinian leaders get the best medical care in Israel even though they constantly issue the most bloodcurdling libels about Israeli “apartheid.”

Looking ahead, this is what I see: A rotten nuclear deal with Iran, conflict with Hamas and Hezbollah, government stability but stagnation, and despite it all – a banner economic year for Israel.

The specter of Israel’s sequestration and boycott by the world is exaggerated, often purposefully so by the Israeli Left. This includes FM Yair Lapid, who this week warned that Israel had better open a diplomatic dialogue with the Palestinians, otherwise the threat of Israel being designated an “apartheid state” will grow severe.

If the police went after those who fire-bomb Israeli buses with the prosecutorial zeal applied to Nir Hefetz, the country would be a lot safer.

Today, 1 Tevet, is my father's 15th yahrtzeit. Had he still been with us, I am certain that my father, Prof. Henry (Zvi Meir) Weinberg z"l, would have much to say about the current state of world Jewry and the assault of modern antisemitism against the Jewish People.

Palestinians are stuck in a rejectionist, denialist time warp. Say “Happy Chanukah” to push back; to axiomatically acknowledge Jewish indigenous rights in Jerusalem, in Hebron, and everywhere else in the Land of Israel.
