Path to Peace – Victory over Ayatollah Iran
For decades, the Arab-Israeli conflict was used as a scapegoat by Arab regimes, to distract from the Arab world’s self-inflicted domestic societal issues - It seems it no longer works.
What Israel still needs to learn from the Shoah
The memory of the Shoah cries out to the present generation not to take its military and political abilities for granted – and to be willing to use those abilities against those who wish for the Jewish people to be destroyed.
From Zion to San Remo and Beyond
As long as Israel’s enemies are allowed to whitewash 3000 years of continuous Jewish national history in Israel and Jerusalem, genuine peace between Israel and her neighbors will remain a pipe dream.
Between Bibi and Bismarck: the Art of Politics and Victory
"Politics is the art of the possible" Bismarck used to say. 150 years later, the image of Israel today as a major power, seems to be a direct consequence of a similar policy of its leader, Benjamin Netanyahu.
Missing from the Election Campaigns – How to end the Conflict
Twenty-five years after the Oslo Accords and a few days before Israeli elections- it is time our leaders learn from History. The end of the conflict will come only after we achieve a clear Israeli victory.
Israel’s Borders Shouldn’t Be Different Than Any Other Border

Sanctions on Iran are Good for the Iranians
Europe for decades associated the US with “ruthless Capitalism”, yet criticizes the Trump administration for prioritizing security over profits, cynically preferring business with the Ayatollahs over the well-being of the Iranian people.
Israel’s “Auschwitz Borders”
As long as Ramallah and Gaza prioritize Israel’s destruction over the well being of their populations, the two-state plan will remain an unattainable pipe dream.
Israel Should be Uprooting Gaza’s Jew-hatred
Israel has been reluctant to use massive force against terrorist enemies hiding in civilian urban areas like Gaza and it increasingly focuses more on fighting anti-Israel propaganda than defeating its adversaries in the battle field.
