Trump, who wants an end to the Israeli-Hamas war even before he reassumes the Presidency, must know that denying the Palestinian right to statehood and conceding further Palestinian land in the West Bank and Gaza to Israel is a recipe for the next horrific inferno that will overshadow even the present calamitous Israel-Hamas war Hamas’…

The death of Sinwar, the mastermind behind the savage October 7 attack that led to the Gaza war, presents a new challenge to Netanyahu and Hamas. Neither has realized their ultimate objective and now faces a new reality they cannot wish away The death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar is significant only if Netanyahu and…

The year since Hamas’ attack on October 7, 2023, and Israel’s retaliation have demonstrated once again that neither has learned anything from decades of horrific violence as they continue to miscalculate each other’s intentions and resolve Israeli-Palestinian relations have reached a new nadir in the year since Hamas’ attack on October 7, 2023, and Israel’s…
