Gaza: The Usual Suspects Condemn Israel

By Colonel Richard Kemp

Israel has not claimed its operation in Gaza — codenamed Breaking Dawn — is to deter. The government has made it clear that the strikes were to prevent an imminent threat to the Israeli population. It had hard intelligence that PIJ, led by Jabari, was planning attacks across the border from Gaza.

A Plan for Peace in Europe

By Colonel Richard Kemp

Where Putin demands that NATO pull back, it should push forward. Some may see this as provocative, but it is in fact a sign of strength which will do more to deter Putin than appeasing him.

Amnesty International: Reporting the End of the Jewish State

By Colonel Richard Kemp

Let us be in no doubt, this report is not a criticism of the State of Israel. It is a chillingly clear manifesto pronouncing Israel an illegal entity with no right to exist.

Biden's Legacy: Will it be the Dismantling of Democracies and the Free World?

By Colonel Richard Kemp

Biden's policies of appeasement towards Iran and Russia are bad enough. But the greatest threat to the free world today comes from China. Biden has a long record of appeasing Beijing.

'From the River to the Sea': Hamas Explains What British Students Want

By Colonel Richard Kemp

[W]hen students and others call for "Palestine" to be free "from the river to the sea", it is this fantasy that they embrace: Jews massacred, expelled, enslaved, hunted down or allowed a precarious subsistence as second class citizens in a repressive Islamic state.

Jerusalem Consulate: A Nail in the Coffin of Peace

By Colonel Richard Kemp

Following his validation in Afghanistan of this damning indictment, Biden now has a chance at last to get something right by abandoning his plan to undermine a close ally, reduce the prospects of peace and sentence the Palestinian people to more decades of suffering.

The Duped Generation that Supports BDS

By Colonel Richard Kemp

BDS tells its supporters that it is "an inclusive, anti-racist human rights movement that is opposed on principle to all forms of discrimination, including anti-semitism and Islamophobia". That is a lie.

The International Criminal Court Threatens Middle East Peace

By Colonel Richard Kemp

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has long had its sights on what it no doubt considers an unholy trinity: Israel, the US and Britain.... First, these are the three Western democracies most active in using legitimate military force to defend their interests.

Media: Israel Must Be Denigrated for Its World-Beating Vaccination Program

By Colonel Richard Kemp

The same negative policy [by the press and many purported human rights groups] extends to other major benefits that Israel has brought to the world, including scientific innovation, medical technology and life-saving intelligence. It goes against editorial agendas to report on the Jewish state in a positive light unless they can somehow twist a good story to turn it bad.

Watch Your Words: Annexation vs. Sovereignty

By Colonel Richard Kemp

It is factually incorrect to assert that Israel intends to “annex” territory to which it has legitimate claim and that never has been part of a “state of Palestine.”

Palestinians, Israel and the Coronavirus

By Colonel Richard Kemp

Some Palestinian Arab leaders today seem to prefer that their own people succumb to disease rather than cooperate with Israel. While Palestinians and Israelis on the ground pull together against Coronavirus.... articles in official Palestinian Authority publications assert that Israel is deliberately spreading the infection and trying to contaminate Palestinian prisoners, using Coronavirus as a biological weapon.

The Arab-Israeli Conflict: Why No Peace?

By Colonel Richard Kemp

The jihadist aim is to isolate Israel politically so that on the day their planned offensive begins, no one will be there to support Israel and the Jews. The PA, the PLO and the Arab/Muslim states will be unhampered to do what Hitler was unable to do in historic Palestine -- make it Judenrein (free of Jews).

Israel as a Strategic Asset of the West

By Colonel Richard Kemp

Despicably, as the Jews stood shoulder to shoulder with the British during WW II, Britain continued to restrict immigration into Palestine, that could have saved so many Jewish lives from extermination at the hands of the Nazis.

How to Fight Islamic Terrorism Effectively? Learn From Israel

By Colonel Richard Kemp

Europeans should learn from Israel’s vast experience in confronting vehicular terror attacks. ‘Run, hide and tell’ is not a strategic concept that will discourage further attacks or limit their damage. We will have to be more robust than this.
