These extremists at both ends of the spectrum ignore that the Iranian regime has been attacking Americans for close to half a century. As Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei declared in November 2023, the chant Death to America! it is not just a slogan – it is a policy.
Judge Mirocznik brings a wealth of legal experience to his new assignment.
On the far right, populist voices warn against endless wars, mistrust the intelligence community, and urge America to retreat from the Middle East altogether.

Macron is using the ongoing conflict in Gaza and the Iran-Israel standoff not out of genuine concern, but as tools to pander to the Muslim world
Judges look harder to find procedural objections to policies and actions of which they disapprove.
Trump's Churchillian Decision:
The delusional wish of Isolationists to militarily disengage from Islamic terrorism, establish peaceful coexistence, and be preoccupied with the domestic agenda, must be based on global and Middle East reality; not on alternate reality.
The US urgently needs to spearhead not another porous, fake "nuclear deal" but real security, stability and freedom -- not only for millions of Muslims, Christians and Jews, but also for the great people of Iran who have been forced to suffer under vicious psychopathic despots long enough.

Politics makes strange bedfellows. Israel makes stranger ones
Mockery is not merely humor, harsh criticism or even a personal insult. It represents a cynical form of denigration that attempts to render its target devoid of value.
Miss Thunberg, in the eyes of many, carries moral authority, without any need to actually articulate a moral argument. The mistaken assumption of gravitas and moral wisdom is very dangerous and has real-world consequences.
Her deep compassion and commitment to fairness guide everything she does. Susan will be an unbiased, principled judge who will make us proud to have supported her.

For buildings like ours, built in the early 1970s, there are no mamad, no individual reinforced safe rooms in each apartment. There is instead a communal bomb shelter in the back of the building on the first floor, a miklat, a place of refuge.
The false claims that Israel is killing the invasive population in Gaza with hunger is false, but the massive truckloads of aid being brought in to save the Hamas supporters from a famine that doesn’t exist may be even more lethal.

Calling what we have in our basement a safe room is frankly more than a bit generous, and not nearly large enough for all of the residents even of our small building. But we pile in.
Stop throwing pernicious pieties about concocted “settler violence” in Israel’s face as it fights for its life
We think the president would do well to speak now about how, in its efforts to dismantle Iran’s nuclear program, Israel is furthering an essential American interest.
We rely upon emunah to carry us forward, to walk us across the bridge of fear and uncertainty.
For people like HaKarmi-Weinberg, who don’t have protected spaces in their homes, sirens mean running to the basement of an apartment building or to a public shelter, if there is even one nearby.
Follow the Oil and forget what they say, just watch what they pump.
The so-called ‘No Kings’ rallies were ugly, divisive and in some cases included terrorist flags
The U.S. appeared afraid of escalation. The U.S. seemed to want a deal more than Iran did.
Israel’s enemies still believe it can be broken with rockets or rhetoric. They are wrong.
Policies concerning refugees, foreign aid and ceasefires must be informed by the reality that a large segment of Gaza’s population supports a terror group.

Others categorically assert that you can’t pray for any healing that goes against nature. Why not?

We must recognize that Jewish history rarely sees the exact same persecution twice.
It is with these vulgarities in mind that the obvious must be stated: The laws of war were fashioned by military strategists who lived in civilized nations, men who believed that even in war there must be rules.
We wonder if Iran be required to ship its existing uranium stock piles and nuclear plant infrastructure to countries outside its borders?

While the perpetrators were bound by a desire to protest, surely they all shared a desire to see Israel disappear – and obviously, they also turned to violence.
Colleges and universities are surely among the most important venues for the organization and refinement of ideas and opinions.
We often fall into unhealthy religious judgmentalism. We don’t possess a reliable thermometer to measure others’ religious sincerity or depth. Yet we often speak loosely, labeling others as less frum or branding entire communities as less religious.
We find it hard to believe President Trump would really be upset with the Israeli threats to bomb Iranian nuclear sites. In fact, to paraphrase an old adage, if Netanyahu did not so threaten, Trump would ask him to.

Protesters seek not only a second Holocaust targeting Israel but the elimination from American society of Jews who believe in its right to exist.
When will Harvard finally acknowledge other racist stains on its record—such as the friendly relations it pursued with Nazi Germany in the 1930s?

Having lived in Israel now for almost 20 years, with the daily dramas we endure, the interconnectivity of events become readily more apparent and harder to overlook.
While, Donald Trump is not, by any stretch, Barack Obama when it comes to Israel, the emerging Trump Middle East doctrine is eerily reminiscent of the Obama New Beginning speech at Cairo University at the beginning of his first term.
The struggle to settle our sacred homeland continues. Nearly 80 years after the founding of Medinat Yisrael, and despite our yearning to live in peace with our neighbors, many still deny our rightful presence in this land.

By Bennett Ruda
I think the question that should be asked all the time is 'Why the Jews?' Why is it that the world, particularly the left, has turned so ferociously against the Jews? You can't blame Israel because it happened before Israel. It's going to happen again.
It contradicts the intention of the League of Nations and makes no sense in the geopolitical reality.
We must confront antisemitism but not just with stories or tours of Jewish victimhood. Instead of focusing on educating others, educate yourself, your children and Jews all around us to be living richly proud and practicing Jewish lives.

Can the knowing establishment of a center for terrorism ever be morally correct?
Most Israelis I have ever told this story to, finish the ending for me. Honestly, Israel and aliyah can drive you crazy…

The term is not in the Torah because it is a modern political invention.
Trump and his special envoy Steve Witkoff are being played and appear not even to know it.
