09/30 Links Pt2: The Cold War Against the Jews; The self-induced downfall of the ICC; Why Are Iran’s Thugs Free to Walk the Streets of New York?

From Ian: The Cold War Against the Jews In November 2023, I became involved in a small community of Jewish academics who were concerned about these developments. Rather than expending our effort on debating with academic associations, we decided to focus on developing one of our own. In January 2024, I joined 22 North American scholars on a solidarity mission to visit academic...

From Ian: Melanie Phillips: A seismic moment Given how the Americans have been undermining and sabotaging Israel’s defence for the past year, it is fervently to be hoped that Israel is telling the Iran-genuflecting Bidenites precisely zero about what it’s doing. The west doesn’t realise how this abominable reaction demonstrates that it has now lost the geopolitical plot...

Middle East Eye reported:Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman told US Secretary of State Antony Blinken that he does not personally care about what he referred to as the "Palestinian issue", according to a report in The Atlantic.Published on Wednesday, the report gave a picture of 11 months of Washington's negotiation efforts in the region after the outbreak of...

There seems to be a huge disconnect between how Lebanese media and officials are talking about Hezbollah, and how ordinary Lebanese are.Criticism of Hezbollah is almost non-existent in every Lebanese newspaper I can find. At best, they maintain a careful balance of reporting the facts but no op-eds denouncing Hezbollah. The Lebanese health minister, Firass Abiad, was...

Iran once again shows how it is willing to support any enemy of Israel as long as its proxies are the only ones taking any risk.Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Nasser Kanaani said at his weekly press conference today that Iran will not leave any of "the criminal acts" of Israel unanswered."We stand strongly and we will act in a way that is regretful [for the enemy]"...

I wrote a week ago, after the pager bombs, "To people in Hezbollah and Hamas and Iran, Israel is a supernatural jinn - it knows where they are, it knows what they say, it knows what they are thinking and are about to do." I said that even as they hate Israel and Jews, at least they should be in awe of them.I was more right than I thought.Iran International writes that an Iranian...

09/29 Links: Israel Rises; Oct. 7 Taught Israel that Only Victory Brings Security; Dara Horn: Harvard's Antisemitism Begins in the Classroom

From Ian: Oct. 7 Taught Israel that Only Victory Brings Security In recent years, Israel tried nearly everything to avoid a large-scale confrontation with its enemies. Billions of shekels were funneled into Gaza in a bid to pacify the terrorist group; thousands of Gazans were allowed to work inside Israel; and trade restrictions were eased. Military operations were narrow...

(From Iran's FARS News, 2013)Adolf Hitler wrote in Mein Kampf:The Jew today is the great agitator for the complete destruction of Germany. ...The Jewish train of thought in all this is clear. The Bolshevization of Germany ....is conceived only as a preliminary to the further extension of this Jewish tendency of world conquest. As often in history, Germany is the great pivot...

Since 2000, Hassan Nasrallah and later other Iranian proxies have been fond of calling Israel "weaker than a spider's web." The term has been on Iranian billboards and elsewhere.At the same time, Iran (and Hezbollah) have been pushing the narrative that they are strong, with huge arsenals and dedicated fighters, and just itching to get into a war with Israel if Israel is so...

For those who are trying to soft-pedal Hezbollah's evil, here are some sections from its 1985 manifesto:No one can imagine the importance of our military potential as our military apparatus is not separate from our overall social fabric. Each of us is a fighting soldier. And when it becomes necessary to carry out the Holy War, each of us takes up his assignment in the fight...

According to Lebanon's health minister, only ELEVEN people were killed in the airstrikes that killed Nasrallah!

We know that Israel flattened four apartment buildings in its airstrike on Hassan Nasrallah.Israel haters are claiming that this is a war crime because there were so many civilians presumed to have been killed in the strikes. They say that this violates the principle of proportionality.They are obviously wrong. Nasrallah, his bunker and the people with him are as high value...

From Ian: Lee Smith: Killing Nasrallah In the past, Israeli officials warned against targeting the terror chief. They feared it might bring about an even more ruthless leader just as Israel’s 1992 assassination of then-Hezbollah chief Abbas al-Mussawi elevated, in their eyes, the more effective Nasrallah. But what made Nasrallah special, what gave rise to the personality...
