At the Negev Summit, the U.S. Secretary of State demonstrated what it currently means to be a Western progressive: supporting people who murder Israelis and empowering others who want to wipe out Israel.
Palestinian spokespeople are expressing considerable concern and indignation that the international community, including those same international judicial bodies in which they actively engage, are immersed in the legal proceedings regarding the Russia-Ukraine war, rather than pursuing Israel.
The terrorist got on the bus and stabbed the victim.
Israel seems to exist in two parallel, contradictory worlds. One is a false, hackneyed, out-of-date, and threatening universe where recalcitrant and violent Palestinian leaders are venerated, and admirable Israeli leaders are criminalized. The other universe is real, promising, forward looking, and stabilizing, and is marked by a peace dynamic that runs from Jerusalem to Dubai, Manama, Rabat, Cairo and Amman; and from Jerusalem to the most important leaders in the world.

With the many challenges facing Israel and its neighbors, including an unstable structure of once-reliable global superpowers and the growing likelihood of a rogue nuclear regime in Iran, this regional alliance is becoming more important by the day.

Pointless as it may be given their myopia, let’s remind the president and his diplomats of life as it is rather than as they would like it to be in Israel and the “disputed territories.”
U.S. President Joe Biden is now accepting Russian President Vladimir Putin—the man he calls a “war criminal” and who has threatened nuclear war against the West—as the controller of Iran’s nuclear-weapons program.
What the US gets out of an agreement with Iran is not certain. Biden can declare “peace in our time” while waving the new, even worse, version of Obama’s JCPOA. But I think that the main motivation is to continue a policy, going back to the 1970s, to reverse the outcome of the 1967 war.

It’s widely accepted by now that in his zeal to get Tehran Iran to sign a nuclear deal—any nuclear deal—the U.S. president has squandered America’s enormous leverage and caved to virtually every Iranian demand.

"Make no mistake: For #Putin it's not about EU or NATO, it is about his mission to restore Russian empire. No more, no less. #Ukraine is just a stage, NATO is just one irritant. But the ultimate goal is Russian hegemony in Europe." — Jan Behrends, German historian.
The guarantees Putin got about the nuclear deal undermine efforts to isolate Russia and show the depth of the administration’s commitment to selling out Israel and its Arab allies.
"The Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) is a terrorist organization that has murdered thousands of people, including Americans. We refuse to believe that the United States would remove its designation as a terrorist organization."
The Russian government has an interest in mounting a vast disinformation campaign against shale gas and nuclear power in the West, by massively financing the groups most likely "naturally" to oppose it: environmentalist organizations.
If the Left were concerned with what is in America’s interest, it would not advocate — and, under Biden, implement — policies to change America from an energy-independent country into an energy-dependent country.

The Biden Admin. is Obama’s third term. Its foreign policy team, and especially those responsible for negotiations with Iran, are made up almost entirely of former Obama Administration people.

The ordinary Israeli sees Reform Judaism for what it is, a politically left-leaning, spiritually vacuous, non-Jewish religion. But it is the 800-pound gorilla of the non-Orthodox world, with money, clout, and people that it uses to project its influence here in Israel, where, in my opinion, it does not belong.
An Odessa website claims Israeli special forces veterans are arriving in Ukraine to fight the Russians.
It’s true that many Ukrainian nationalists initially welcomed the German invaders as liberators during World War Two. But Ukraine suffered more than Russia from Nazism, with more of its population being killed during the war than any other country.
