Groundhog Day for Middle East ‘peace processers’
If, as the saying goes, “nothing breeds success like success,” it is equally true that, as far as much of the DC foreign policymaking elite is concerned, “nothing breeds arrogance like failure.” Writing in POLITICO Magazine, Aaron David Miller...

The Washington Post’s Opinion Page Slanders Israel, Again
“Facts,” Mark Twain once observed, “are stubborn things, but statistics are pliable.” When it comes to the Israel-Islamist conflict, the Washington Post’s global opinion page ignores the facts. And the newspaper consistently treats its own standards and ethics as pliable. A July...

The Palestinian Authority’s word and the media’s silence
The Palestinian Authority (PA) has admitted that it will not honor any agreements that violate Sharia (Islamic law). And the press, it seems, has declared that it won’t cover the Authority’s admission. The Authority’s decision illustrates the value of...

Politico and Unpleasant Truths
“There are no facts, only interpretations,” the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche once asserted. This seems to be the operating principle of Politico, the Washington D.C.-based publication, when it comes to reporting on Israel. Facts that are inconvenient to the preferred...

Iran and The Washington Post Attack Israel
For centuries, Jews were deprived—at unimaginable cost—of that most basic right: self-defense. Today, the Jewish nation is subjected to impossible standards of self-defense by press and policymakers, as an Aug. 27, 2019 Washington Post editorial illustrates. In the Post’s column...

Déjà Vu in Bahrain
“History,” Mark Twain reportedly said, “doesn’t repeat, but it does rhyme.” And recent attempts to broker an Israeli-Palestinian peace agreement prove it. On June 25, 2019, Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and adviser, presented part of the administration’s plan for...

Politico Rewrites History
US-based journalism has “shifted away from objective news” and become more subjective, according to a May 2019 study by the RAND Corporation. And a May 21, 2019 Politico report proves it. The article, “Why some Palestinians are backing Trump’s...

Netflix (Almost) Gives a Notorious Anti-Semite a Show
“In recent times,” the Anti-Defamation League wrote in March 2018, “there has been one constant in anti-Semitism in America: Louis Farrakhan.” Yet, Netflix was seemingly unperturbed by the head of the Nation of Islam’s four-plus decades of documented antisemitism...

The Washington Post’s Skewed Coverage of Antisemitism
Antisemitism is rising globally. And one of the world’s leading newspapers is failing to accurately report it. On Feb. 27, 2018 the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) reported that antisemitic incidents in 2017 were “nearly 60 percent higher” than the previous year. The ADL’s...
